Post your Yosemite issues

[EquinOoX]

I have a brand new rMBP 15" less than 1 week old. I do see some display issues and sometimes hang without the loading ball and with some distortions on the graphic display when hang. I am not sure is it because of Yosemite or it came like this. I am doing a fresh install...hope its Yosemite....

If possible, please take photos/videos of the issue after a clean install. looks like a hardware issue, I'll definitely pursue a replacement.

I had the same problem from released till last week, but it seems to have resolved itself somehow.

Now running fine.

Keep trying daily.

Anybody got issues with accessing Apple Diagnostics? Mine shows a blank screen but still running the test works.

when you download, does the downloading progress bar shows or it just changed to downloaded ?

it download as per normal. slowly and steadily...

EDIT: After umpteen times, finally installed.

Just got my wife a mb pro retina. Should I proceed to upgrade to yosemite?

in my opinion you should, if only you are not using the router asus ac87u for the moment. ASUS has confirmed some incompatibility issues between their chipset and apple airport for the moment.

10.10 is the OS X you are upgrading to, however do ensure that you check for updates again at app store to upgrade the os to 10.10.1

10.10.1 should solve wirelessly issues, but there are some people also experiencing poor performance as well.

These are just some pointers which i think you might wanna consider before upgrading..

took the plunge to wipe out my mavericks on the mid 2012 mba and clean install yosemite. everything works out fine.

applied monolingual, deleted iTunes, ibooks, maps, mail, wallpapers and other unneeded apps and found the new OS X only occupies 9+ GB of storage.

Only problem with clean install is I have to redo my Boot Camp and reinstall my Win 8.1 AND all my games.

Will probably wait for things to stabilise a bit before I do an upgrade. Hopefully its ok.

internet recovery is the os that initially shipped with your mac.

might not be the latest os

for those still having wifi issues on Yosemite can try disabling AWDL and AirDrop

sudo ifconfig awdl0 down

seems that AWDL is e main culprit affecting both Yosemite n iOS 8 wifi madness

Yeah it's slightly slower than OS X Mavericks but not much different with SSD.

I would expect it to be slower with all the graphics enhancement in the OS X Yosemite GUI

Having issues with 5Ghz wifi.... the connection drops every once in awhile. Absolutely frustrating.

Back to 2.4Ghz for me.

If drop = cannot detect your 5GHz network, setting a static channel on the router fixed it for me.

Have a read at the following article - Jeff with a G: 5GHz WiFi on your Mac got you down? 802.11d is your problem

it's the same issue i faced and explains exactly why it's happening - something to do with different region standards.
