Dude...YOU'RE the one making absolute statements. not everyone who customizes their mac has issues with mavericks, just as...not everyone who has issues has done ANY customizing.
every situation is unique...based on hardware, apps, user knowledge, random mysteries...
anyway, your comment makes an assu mption with no info to back it up. let it go...
This.

Tell me sir, why is it that I as power user who uses his Macbook Pro and iMac for business, graphic design an extensive movie editing have no issues with Mavericks and some others do? I guess I have a few of those special edition Macs that can deal with problematic OS's without issue....Oh Wait, here's a thought, maybe the system isn't as awful as some of the FUD spreaders make it out to be.
Just an example.
Explain why *some* people have had issues with WiFi (over the years) while others have had none. With exact same hardware. Right out of the box some iMacs had issues connecting (and staying connected) to WiFi. (Hint: Apple released updates to fix the problem, multiple times... wasn't the end user)
10.9.0 had issues with Mail (I didn't) so of course it was users messing with the system right?
I have had zero issues with my iMac, from 10.6 through 10.8.5 upgrading right over the top of the old OS. Some swear that you shouldn't do it.. others say it's ok. Apple says it's ok..
10.9.0 was the worst experience I have ever had with OS X. Because i'd have to force restart the iMac every 2-3 days. With 10.9.1 it's about once a week..
I'm backing up all my data on the iMac now, then i'm doing a clean install this time and see if my issues go away.
I love Mavericks, and you won't get me to go back to ML. If my clean install fixes my
1 problem I continue to have.. Then i'll be happy. Again, it's only on my 2011 27" iMac, my MBP runs Mavericks flawlessly.
I upgraded the HD in the MBP with a Hybrid when I installed 10.9.0
My errors date back to 10.6.. when I do searches for the error message. So I hardly think it's something I did while "messing" with the OS.
I bet Apple never tested the upgrade path I took.. 10.6.0 through 10.8.5, probably not installing every update.. then 10.9.0
Dockmod is no different than many of the other tweaks out there, it's not the problem. Bugs that Apple has had with the OS dating back months in beta testing.. and not fixed... are the problem and not people like me "tweaking" the OS. Dockmod has nothing to do with Finder or Time Machine.. Hardly think it's the culprit.
If you don't like customizing your OS... then why did you post in a thread about commercial software that customizes your OS?
