Apple Seeds Second OS X 10.10.5 Yosemite Beta to Developers

This is some serious Apple apologist mentality and illogic; so because consumers may not know what TRIM is, it should be disregarded and let SSDs degrade quicker?

Inexcusable.

TRIM isn't the only wear-leveling technology out there. Most SSDs nowadays have built-in mechanisms that accomplish this task beautifully.

Does that make it ok for them to have not included TRIM support? No, certainly not.

It's good then that there's this OS X 10.10.5 update to install.

What I find Interesting about OS X is that although the hardware and software are built by Apple, the releases seem to affect different hardware quite differently. ie: I did not "permanently" install 10.10 on my mid 2011 Imac until the .3 release. I did try before, but always went back to Mavericks. Now 10.10.4 is really sweet on the Imac, but is still problematic for some users! <strange>

I cannot believe what I am going to say: After twenty years of Microsoft's attempts at putting an OS out the first time that works out of the box....I think that finally hit it with Windows 10.....

While I do like Windows 10, I have to say that was not my experience at all! Riddled with issues on both computers I've upgraded. Worse out of the box than Windows 7 in my opinion.

Perhaps it's time that Apple stopped rubbing one out over the iPhone and focused on computers... or god forbid, prosumers? Everything since iOS came out has forced their desktops and OS X to take a hit.

I am changing my mind and starting to like one OS for all devices. The technology has now developed to support one OS on computers, tablets, and phones. In Apples world could go either way, iOS or Mac OS. I prefer Mac OS but that is for engineers to decide. Maybe a pipe dream.

No, that is for the consumers to decide. If Apple goes iOS for everything, I'm never buying another Apple product ever again.

heard that something like innovative WIFI could work somehow?

Annoying thing is that even after almost a year, these morons at Apple can't fix small bugs in Yosemite. Even when someone reported them and cooperated in providing system diagnostic reports. Great work Apple, keep screwing the OS X! And Craig keep spending your time in thinking about funny ideas about keynotes at WWDC but don't look and push these morons to fix bugs in Yosemite.

Agree.. "loving OS X Yosemite these days"....stable with now "Zero" issues on all of my systems.

Yes I am liking Yosemite better than El Capitan right now...El Capitan is getting alot better but not 100% yet...

Finally...after a year of waiting for OS X Yosemite to get stable and working the way it was suppose to be over OS X Mavericks it finally works.

The latest release of 10.10.5 beta sure doesn't. Safari stopped showing my Drupal admin control panel and I cannot access my Linksys admin panel. Link sys says I need cookies enabled (they are) and Drupal returns nothing. Still investigating.

Safari has been updated, so you may need to re-install all of your add-ons to have functionality. Not sure what the compatibility with these, since they are 3rd party. I am happy that Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 is now working in 10.11 El Capitan, since it did not before, since the Java SE Runtime 6 was not compatible with 10.11 -- Apple has now released a new Java SE 6 runtime for El Capitan and all the Java programs like Dreamweaver now run fine in El Capitan. I just had to skip the extensions install to get the installer to work.

Actually, the 3rd Beta fixed it all. A mystery that will have to be ignored...

Still no complaints on this GEM of an OS X. Quick and responsive with everything working as it should. Keep it Goin' apple!
