Because of course Microsoft updates are always smooth as silk...Seriously.....with the piddly market share OS X has and the massive resources Apple has....why is it every launch is the same. Slow or not available?

Seems a bit screwy - I installed Beta 4 last week assuming the release version would install over it. App store acts like there is no update.
I guess I have to wait for 10.10.1
It was still a beta just days ago and plenty of problems were reported and uncorrected. No Golden Master. RAM hog. All-around slow. I have an SSD installed and it just feels like I'm running on a regular HDD, complete with lags and frequent BBoD appearances. Noticeable lag in pretty much every operation. CPU usage always high thanks to these unnecessary translucency effects, meaning shorter battery life and high fan noise. Crappy green button and debatable UI changes. UI inconsistencies. Bad colour balance. Evasive draggable top bar. Imprecise batteries meters, both Bluetooth and internal. Come on, have you hired Window's file transfer box developer, Apple? Still impossible to install AppleJack. Crappy spam filter in Mail. Windows stealing focus. Undifferentiated or mismatched external drives icons.
Have you noticed how many processes are running on an "idle" machine? As small as they are, they surely have to ask for resources at some point.
Releasing an unripe OS doesn't do good to Apple's rep. They haven't finished ironing out Mavericks yet. I guess I'll revert to Mountain Lion once the official beta closes.
Have the lucky few around here been able to connect without error to 802.1X-secures WLANs?
How did you install the final version of Yosemite? I thought the installer just tells you you already have Yosemite installed and won't let you do anything?
So where is the Photos application they're bragging that will replace Aperture. Heck I even got an update for Aperture when I installed Yosemite, I wish Apple would just keep this application, update it into Aperture X with the Photos UI and third party support plugin.
The application could not be downloaded.
The installation could not be started.
I'm not thrilled with the changed green button. The only app I use in full screen is Mail, but the zoom button I use all the time. Guess I'll have to get used to resizing windows manually.
What about beta testers? Do we have to download 5GBs again?
IF you manage to get a seat on the plane... Looks like millions of people want to fly to Australia tonightYou can fly from America to Australia in that time, wowsie.
I have the exact same macbook exactly the same issue. Could you reply back if you find a fix, many thanks.I thought installation was almost finished because it was showing 2 minutes left. It's almost been one hour like this.
I opened up the Installer Log, and saw a spinning beach ball for about 3 minutes, and it finally shows what it's doing. It's not frozen, so I'll just let it do what it's doing overnight.
edit:
I just tried to move my cursor, and it's completely frozen now...
What should I do?
edit2:
My keyboard and touchpad was dead on the laptop. I plugged a USB mouse, and I was able to close the log screen, and saw Rebooting in 10 seconds. Now rebooting.
I have a 2013 rMBP13 with i5/8GB ram/256GB ssd.
Done. Several different screens and never a restart chime.
This is by far the smooth updates from Apple for me in just one hour or less! But what about Continuity? When will it start work? From coming Monday with iOS 8.1 update?
May I ask what are your system specs and do you notice sluggishness?
So where is the Photos application they're bragging that will replace Aperture.
The one that they said would come out early next year?
It's not next year yet.
Is it just me this whole Flat look is just too FLAT? I feel like it just boring on my iMac Mid-2011 and sadly can not connect my iPhone because of older Bluetooth, I really do not see much I was expecting a lot more than just UI changes. I guess to get more you must always buy the latest iMac.
