Thanks. BTTT.
Oh good, I’ve had some major performance issues in Safari on my iPad Air. Hoping this fixes them.

I started to download the Yosemite and was ready to finish the install when I read some of the comments about it and decided not to finish the install. Anyone using it and liking it better than mountain lion?
Updated iPhone 5 and iPad 2 without any problems. iPhone 4s failed to download the update. I will try again later from another location nearer to the wireless router.
When are they going to allow us to save data on an external device? Staples sold me device that the salesman claimed would allow me transfer data from our iPad and iPhone to a jump drive. When I tried to use it, I got an error message that the device required more battery power than either the iPhone or iPad could provide.
On the iPad mini, I have had cut/paste problems from safari. Seems like nothing I copy makes it to my email - so I can’t send links and stuff like that...not a great problem, but a pain. Hope it gets fixed soon...
I’ve ben using it since the middle of last month and am very satisfied with it. There were a few small quirks to get use to, but everything seems faster now and functionality has improved.
So far Yosemite has worked well for me. I’ve been using it for two weeks. Non of the reported wifi issues. Safari is still unstable. I tried it for a few days and went to Firefox. Mail seems better. Doesn’t lock up like it did sometimes in Mavericks. I like the expanded file sharing capability of icloud but it still is more limited than Dropbox. Google Drive or One Drive.
Hopefully this will fix the noise problem on Apple TV which I think is because of the way it interfaces with the TV and it gets out of sync and gets really noisy. On the forums, it’s the TV that needs the update but I’ll try it tonight.
Lots of things that were sluggish or not working seem to be fixed between the OS X and iOS patches. My iPhone and MacBook are playing nicer (SMS and tethering on the MB, for example), and WiFi performance seems greatly improved, especially in actually recognizing the SSID.
This also fixed a problem with the Remote app when trying to control my home theater Mac Mini and with the Mobile Mouse program that lets me use my phone as a mouse for said Mini - neither were working at all before these patches. (And that was a big deal for home theater use, as DRM issues made controlling the Mini via shared screen unworkable for iTunes store content.)
My brand new ipad air keeps freezing. Even with something as small as typing on the keyboard. I was going through the apple forums and apparently there is a hardware issue with some of them. I’ll try updating before I take it in to be switched out.
I am up to date i-5 and no problems. Also, all updates downloaded on i-pad the third model without a number.
