Me too.
Also having to restart the AppleTV every time I want to start a new AirPlay session from Yosemite iMac to AppleTV.
Apple doesn't listen on these boards. The only way is to send them feedback. If you have a Mac Developer license, use bugreport.apple.com, otherwise, use feedback.apple.com. I found that Apple actually replies when using bugreport.apple.com system.
That said, I have filed multiple radars about graphical glitches, and they all have gone unresolved. They only asked me for system logs but then they failed to respond further. Once in a while after some time from the original radar filing date, they tell me that the issue "may" be fixed in the recent dev update build, even when clearly there was no work done on the graphics side.I have to keep telling them that the issue has not been fixed. I think they just want to close out the radars.
You do know apple has people they pay to comb all these boards...
They just dont give a #%#)% about your feedback.... more like if there are leaked things, etc. but they do monitor.... how else do they fire their staff for breaking their confidentiality agreements?
No complaints on my part - on a Late 2010 MacBook Air. Just a few minor problems with Safari when visiting a few porn sites
that is just awesome! how long i wish i could do that and had no idea... just love these hidden features that they could have just put in a right click menu
Orientation/context
Paces of change
Discussion, and a poll: Is OS X upgrading too quickly?
For feedback to Apple on the public beta: sign up before attempting to use the asistant
From that title, I assume that jkichline is neither a member of the OS X Beta Program, nor a developer.
the first given link leads to the sign up routine for that program, after which Feedback Assistant can be used for feedback on the beta with an assumption that Apple will listen.

Maybe this will fix the graphics problems I am having with my MBPr. Also, handoff hardly works, and Airdrop to iDevices doesn't work at all.
in my opinion they got a little to excited and ambitious with this continuity idea which demanded a ton of core level networking changes apparently. most likely code no one has touched since the move from power pc. imagining lots of green Apple engineers being thrown at this heap of hyper critical old code no one remembers anything about and given a week to get it to work.
the translucency and dark mode is another thing in my opinion that offers much of nothing but surely caused a stir across all of the gui libraries. i like the idea of dark mode a lot but to be valuable it needs to cover more of the entire interface then just the top bar and a few system menus. translucency to me is just a waste of resources. i'd rather the graphics card just sat idle in it's spare time then trying to scatter blend 6 layers of windows I can't see anyway.
The new update now recognises my iPod 7th generation, Hopefully it's fixed for other devices
No plz
Apple had so many problems while updating to Yosemite, i see no visible changes other than its more iPhone than ever. I am really hoping to see big changes in the future but Kudos.
----------
really, i have a 2013 15 inch retina, and it just makes it worse. I had to re install the operating systems to get rid of the beta. I know this is off topic but the only problems i had with this mac is that one time it had application memory problems, and i was going to restore my laptop but then someone wrote on the apple forums that u had to do a terminal command but my sound wouldnt work, but then i fixed it. Hey do u have the 11 inch mac book air?

Buy a router that isn't a POS, like the Airport Extreme.

Get a copy of 10.9 and install it. Show some initiative.

Do you use screen sharing? I was having nonstop crashes caused by disconnecting screensharing. Had to disable OpenCL for screensharing.
I find this new feature very interesting. How do I get it
You want mega dikk vette internet?
Man, Yosemite seems to be the worst OSX ever. Glad I haven't updated. Considering that I don't need to I'll probably skip it altogether.
Considering I've filed a bug for 18 months with Microsoft about some kind of weird leak in their network stack (still unsolved) that brings down my machine every 2-7 days... The same disk in a different machine (with the same hardware) does the exact same thing. That affects all networking (kinda major bug don't you think), seemingly it is not as simple as it may look from the outside. And I've got 30 years of computer engineering behind me : I can debug anything... But seemingly not my own Windows 8.1!!! I simply lack access to instrumentation and the code to do so.
Reinstalling does the same thing so the bug is somewhere in the early code base of Win 8; probably linked to my hardware... Would need to take the disk to a different hardware to verify.
I've had WIFI issues on every single machine using WIFI ever... So, I'm guessing that there are some intricacy of it that must be fooling most of them.

Is the Wi-Fi icon fixed with 10.10 ?
What i mean is in 10.9.5, sometimes u see your connected, yet the icon show its not... But u know it is, since u can get online.
Or the fact when take screenshots they thumbnail's displayed ??
Seriously Apple, some of these issues are laughable to the extent i really wanna use Windows.... You would never see this.
I do have 10.10.x in VM, but i can't test the Wi-fi thing in VM.
