Mavericks/Apple deserves praise

Osx 10.9 (mavericks) is definitely the biggest crap after windows 95. Apple need ASAP to complete and post the upgrade. Dozens of problems, Finder, Desktop, magic mouse, Illustrator crashes.. etc. WTF?

***Be careful!! - Don't upgrade to Mavericks before a serious upgrade released.***

Your perspective is very interesting but incomprehensible. Opinions should be evidenced based and based upon my experience with the developers previews (1-8) and GM release X2....I was impressed from the onset, and I have not had any issues with the release on the 22nd of October (13A603). I guess, the old adage applies, you can please all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time but you cannot please all the people all the time:confused:
 
has anyone with vpn problems under 10.9 installed 10.9.1? and has that resolved the vpn issues?
 
Mavericks Won't Restore from TimeMachine Backup

My biggest complaint is that Mavericks will not restore from a TimeMachine backup made with an iMac running Mavericks.

My old iMac with current Mavericks died (short in the cable/power plug) so I decided to just buy a new one. Spent most of the day with support - after hours they told me this was a known bug with no fix release date.

So I returned the new iMac and got my old iMac fixed in 2 days from an authorized repair shop (it's considered "vintage" at Apple).

This is the first time I've ever lost confidence in Apple. How in the world is it OK to ship and OS that doesn't restore from your own backup system?

Not going to be an early adopter any more.
 
Mailbox update hanging

The upgrade didn't take too long for me, though mail has been trying to update mail database for a whole day now. I have multiple gmail accounts with maybe 200,000 messages in about 20GB of data, but this seems excessive. Clues? Safe to restart?

Start using saved email boxes in GAIL (on the web). Try to get to Inbox zero because Gmail IMAP seems to work much better this way. Also go in Gmail's settings and in the labels section tell not to include in IMAP and this will help out a lot.
