I have downloaded/installed it.

No problems so far, as it seems smooth, and the new features look promising.

The “family-sharing” is a positive, and I love the new email feature, when linking websites gives those emailed the full content of what is being linked, not just the “clickable” link.

So much more to explore!

Just to keep the Mac haters happy - so you can find fault...

Doesn’t seem to recognize the old “junk email” lists, so you might have to go through labeling them all over again. But maybe I missed something?

This is not a major hassle for those of you who are relative newcomers to the Mac world. But some of us have had our email addy out there since the beginning of internet time, and these have passed around to whoever wants to sell us something.

We are constantly sent many daily emails exhorting us to buy whatever “junk” will keep them in groceries. It is a pain to have to click on that little “down thumb” again, after we thought we once doomed them to starvation, or peanut butter on crackers - when we didn’t buy whatever they thought we just couldn’t resist.

But, so be it. Everyone wants to drown us in “junk”. Why were we ever so naive to think we would be protected from hustlers invading our emails? If stuffing our snail mail p.o.boxes no longer works, maybe we will salivate for the same old cr@p in our email boxes, or so they hope and pray

I love that “down thumb” icon, for it makes me feel so powerful to send them to “junk” in a microsecond - even better than throwing the snail mail junk in the public wastebasket, right after taking it out of my P.O. box.

And, it is so “green”! Al Gore must just love it!

:^D

Well, I must admit that i had to reboot the mindset on the iPhotos. I tried to export photos to my fd. At first it seemed I would have to click photo by photo in order to do this. I thought, “There’s no way in heck that Apple designed the new OS iPhoto in this way”. Finally figured it out.

Thankfully I’m enjoying the relearn curve on the Yosemite.

I've used SpamSieve for years. It's amazing.
