OS X Beta Seed Program
You'll have to log in with your Apple ID. There is a link to a redemption code page at the bottom of the page.
Thanks. Sounds great!
I'll do what I can to avoid 'their rental scheme'. The day Adobe lets me buy/upgrade and thereby own CS like I used to, they will get to my wallet again.
I fear it will never happen.
Real switching options for both Photoshop and Illustrator are (almost) there. But who is working on something to match/dethrone InDesign?
I was having the same issue! I called Apple Support and everything! At this point, they told me they're not even trained for OS X Yosemite yet!
I fixed my issue by recovering from a later backup I had through Time Machine.
we've seen it where if you have FileVault 2 enabled but not enabled for all users on on the computer, it sometimes will require a double login, not sure if that's the case here or not.
Defocusing from Yosemite
If a FileVault 2 user boots in safe mode, then that user must enter their password at EfiLoginUI (key to unlock the OS X startup volume). Then launchd will launch loginwindow and loginwindow will require credentials of any valid user.
If a FileVault 2 user boots in normal mode, then loginwindow should not require entry of any credential. And then for a login by someone who is not enabled for FileVault 2, loginwindow must be used.
I Give Up, Yosemite Destined For The Trash Bin!
I tried various fixes to abate the bug in the "Finder" (see below) to no avail. While ignoring the other less intrusive and annoying bugs. Today, I finally gave up and erased the Partition and will install once again on top of my Mavericks Daily Machine when Apple releases the "final version" Final...? and attempt to use Yosemite one more time. This will be the first time from Leopard to Mavericks, that I will be installing a new OS X onto a test partition for fear of rendering my Machine unusable! Thanks, Apple!
I am forced to drag and reset size and position of the Finder Window, resize Side Bar and resize Home Folders (I was able to stop, having to resize Folders after selecting "Use as Default" in "Show View Options") after every restart of the Machine and at various other times while using the Machine. This is extremely disruptive, time consuming and frustrating. There is no acceptable excuse for this not being corrected in Beta 5. The Finder and System Preferences are the heart of OS X and yet they have allowed this bug and many others too continue through 5 beta releases. Disappointed is a gross understatement.
For Apple's lack of concern, respect and appreciation for the Yosemite Beta OS X and its testers (Apple Customers Working For Free) with their feedback, is disgusting!

Bluetooth/Continuity STILL not working
So we're at Golden Master and STILL bluetooth pairing and continuity/handoff is NOT working on my 15-inch Retina Macbook Pro.
Most other bugs seem to be fixed but handoff is the main selling point of Yosemite and still doesn't work on my device?

If you want release quality: use the full installer, not an update
No, the release is different.
Neither of the third golden master candidates is the same as the golden master.
If you want golden master, release quality wherever possible: you should do more than update. You should make the zero-cost purchase then perform a full installation, using Apple's app in its entirety.
Don't forget Recovery OS and so on.

Thank you guys! I will download the one from MAS and do clean installs.
How did you try to install it. Did you do it through the app store. Were you on 10.9.5 when you tried install 10.10??
OS X 10.10 Yosemite not on the Updates page of App Store; it's not an update
There was very recently at least one update that would have not changed the version of OS X.
Yosemite is not an update, it's an upgrade (or simply an installation). You'll not find it on the Updates page of App Store.
