Darker monitor after Yosemite install?
Has anyone experienced a darker screen on an iMac after upgrading to Yosemite?
Not me, but if you are having this issue try turning up your brightness, or visiting the "Displays" pane of your System Preferences. You can also go to the "Accessibility" pane, then go to the "Display" section and check "Reduce Transparency", which makes everything more white. You should also go to the "General" pane and (if checked) uncheck "Use dark menu bar and Dock".
Hope this helps! Reply if you need help or if you have questions!

Monitors flickering badly after Yosemite Install
Monitor flickering badly after Yosemite installed
I will be awaiting upDated drivers in a release soon.
I notice is very badly when I connect my iphone to ITunes screen
goes crazy flicker. . . . Anyone else having this issue ?Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless. -

Feb 17, 2015, 05:36:32 PM Self test - passedPlease read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Shut down from safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
Keeps crashing after Yosemite install - Need thoughts on what to do...
My 2013 Macbook Air keeps crashing after Yosemite install, time between crashes are more random than consistent and it can be anytginh from one hour to 6 hours between crashes. Enclosed the report below with the hope that someone has some tips on what to do here.... I've formatted the computer, reinstalled the OS and checked the drive for errors and I've found nothing so far.
Would be very grateful for any thoughts/tips on what to do here...

Messages stuck in updating after Yosemite install
Messages stuck in updating after Yosemite install. Tried re-install of Yosemite and quit messages, still unable to access.
Hi,
Go to the ~/Library/Attachments folder. (well it should be a folder).
If it is not a Folder then rename it and create a New folder with the same name.
restart Messages.
Or if you have a Time Machine backup replace the Non folder item with an Original from just before the update.

My MacBook Pro's internal SuperDrive has stopped recognizing CDs/DVDs after Yosemite install
After upgrading to Yosemite, my MacBook Pro's (early 2011) internal SuperDrive has stopped recognizing CDs/DVDs after Yosemite install. It takes them in and will eject them with the keyboard button, but they will not mount. Disk Utility shows the SuperDrive and shows the inserted media, but will not mount the disk. That button is grayed out. Please help! I still have training libraries and music I access on such media. Thx!
UPDATE: I discovered some forum posts about a similar issue with Mavericks that recommended re-installing the system to fix the problem. I realized that I rarely restart my computer unless there's an update that requires it, and decided before undertaking a full re-install of Yosemite to simply restart my computer again. THIS WORKED! The SuperDrive is now mounting CDs and DVDs. Not sure what the issue was, but if anyone else has this issue I hope this will save you hours of frustration.

My computer is running slow after Yosemite install -but in the Mail program, when I open an email and then open the attachment -all is good -when I close the attachment the Mail program goes away, and I have to reopen it in my Dock -every time.
I tried this, but no luck. I went to Previous System>Users. There is nothing inside the "Users" folder, so I hit a dead end.
I can find my new e-mails -- those that came in since I re-installed the system -- in my NEW system (which I did to see if I was correctly understanding the advice), by going to Users>Home>Library>Mail>POP account name>Inbox.
Let me add a new question: I am running PhotoShop C3. It opens OK, and I can use it, but when it opens I get this message: "One or more files for Adobe Application Support folder are missing. Please re-run the PhotoShop installer."
I don't like re-installing working programs if I can avoid it, because it always seems to lead to other issues. Any idea what files are missing, and where it/they might be in the Previous System folder?
thanks

My display is non hdcp compliant after Yosemite install
My display is non hdcp compliant after Yosemite install, fix this?
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
unable to bootup after Yosemite install. have to keep shutting down from rear button. it does come on after a few times but then hangs at user login again. If you get in it is great. Seems faster than Mavericks but there is some sort of issue, bootup /login.
Knock on wood, this seems to have been my problem as well. I stumbled on this thread after dealing with this ridiculously-long boot times for the past several weeks.
I just reinstalled McAfee Antivirus and my Macbook Air booted up in less than 1 minute. No more hanging on the boot-up progress bar. No more hanging after I click on my user's avatar on the log-in screen. Bootup would often take 5+ minutes and sometimes never complete.
This has been SUPREMELY frustrating.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING YOUR RESPONSE!!! -

It goes for many software, like ShareKit.framework, SceneKit.framework, NotificationCenter.framework, Preview.app, Calendar.app, Reminders.app etc. - all of them are Apple software. I get it like every 1 minute in log.
Google didn't help. What is it, what does it means and how to fix?..Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
find . $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) -exec ls -Odel {} \; | wc -l
Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "85." Please post it in a reply. -
Bootcamp Wont Load After Yosemite Install
Loner T,
My bootcamp does not load after Yosemite install.
ThanksThis is the first part of the recovery procedure. In your case, you have two OS X versions, so standard layout is not usable.
Please install GPT Fdisk (aka gdisk) (http://sourceforge.net/projects/gptfdisk/) if you have not done so yet.
You need to use the following steps. If you see any error messages during the following steps, please stop and post back here with the error message. The following steps have values from your Testdisk output (and you can verify) in Steps 7 and 8.
Rebuild GPT5 using start/end offsets
Sudo gdisk /dev/rdisk0
P (print the full list of parts)
D (delete)
5 (part 5)
N (new part)
5 (part 5)
841717760 - Start offset in bytes (start point for Bootcamp part)
+135055353 (Size offset as opposed to End offset)
0700 (Windows part type)
P (print list of all parts just to see what changes will be made)
W (Write the new GPT)
Y (Yes! really write the new GPT)
This will delete and re-write the GPT partition info for /dev/disk0s5.
Reboot. Test that you can see the Bootcamp volume in Finder and see files in the Bootcamp volume. -
Screen on Macbook 2009 stays dark after Yosemite install
My Macbook and screen were running perfectly fine, then after the Yosemite update completed my screen has been dark ever since. I can use a second monitor and see everything, and my laptop screen sometimes stays lit for a few minutes to an hour, but then goes dark again. I can see the files on the dark laptop screen if I use a flashlight. All of my apps seem to be running fine albeit computer overall is sluggish since the Yosemite install.
The steps I've taken so far:
I disconnected all peripherals.
I restarted holding Command-R.
I opened Disk Utility.
I verified and repaired disk and permissions which came back with no errors.
I shut down when it was finished and then performed the steps to reset my SMC as per indicated by Apple.
I then started and held down the Option-Command-P-R keys immediately when I heard the boot chimes, and released the keys when the system automatically reset and sounded the boot chimes again.
I then immediately switched from the Option-Command-P-R keys to holding the Shift key down when I heard the second boot chimes, to boot in Safe mode. I let it run through the reboot and restarted once again and my screen was lit up as it should be, but after 10 min it went dark again.
Not sure what else to try at this point. Bummed that my laptop was running fine prior to the "upgrade" but for the past 2 weeks since installing Yosemite I can only work with my external monitor attached. Apple Care hasn't been able to resolve the issue and I find it odd that I would need to pay for a hardware fix at the store when everything was running fine prior to the upgrade, and my screen lights up as usual sometimes so it seems something isn't broken, just not working properly with Yosemite. Ive read that the video driver is bad, hoping someone out there has a solution!

Messages font is missing after Yosemite install
Hi everyone,
I installed Yosemite and a few days later when using Messages I noticed that a font seems to be missing in the UI window to the right of the person's name.
I don't remember what this line of text is for but it's clearly missing from the main system fonts library and I can only assume this happened after the Yosemite install since everything was fine before this.
Can anyone identify what that typeface was/is ?
here's a screengrab:For others.
You needs AppleGothic (this is involved in logging in the iMessages account)
Helvetica Neue - this displays the text in the Chats/Conversations.
Lucida Grande is used when displaying the Buddy Lists for the Group title bars.
This bit that is "wrong" in the pic is the Date item for each chat.
This may be Lucida Grande as well but I cannot disable the Font to check.

Iphoto library after Yosemite install won't upgrade
I have a MacBook 13 in from late 2009 w/ 2.26 GHz Intel Core Duo and 2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3. I have 105 GB free and 88 GB iphoto library.
I upgraded to Yosemite and when I open iPhoto it says that the library needs to be upgraded. When I choose upgrade, the status window almost completes, but then gets stuck before the very end (even after a few hours).
I am not sure which version of iPhoto I had pre-Yosemite. When I tried to do the iPhoto 9.1 update, it says that I need 9.0 installed first. Do I need to buy and install 9.0 (as part of iLife 11)? I can't determine which version of iPhoto I currently have on my computer (About iPhoto is grayed out), so I am not sure if I even need to install a version prior to 9.0? Could this be causing the problem w/ the library upgrade?
Is the 2 GB memory too little and contributing to this problem?
I did backup with Time Machine prior to the Yosemite install (had iOS 10.7.5).NotaPipe:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. That has happened to others and the following has been able to fix it for some: download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
Give it a go and see if it will help you also.

Can't resize disk partitions after Yosemite install.
My disk has two partitions. I run Mavericks on the first, and recently installed Yosemite on the second. The OS works fine, but I no way to resize the partitions. I've tried booting into both Yosemite and Mavericks but the partition layout in disk utility appears locked with fixed partition sizes.
It now appears that I have two options.
Use the undocumented "resizeVolume" command in diskutil to resize the core storage volume in my Yosemite partition, or
Use the "revert" command in diskutil to revert from core storage to the default partition type and try my luck.
Is anyone else facing this issue of not being able to resize your disk partitions after the Yosemite install, and if so, how did you resolve this?
Thanks in advance.None of these worked. I had to resolve this the hard way.
Make a complete TM backup of the new Yosemite installation.
Use a bootable install DVD or USB drive, re-partition the disk and do a complete reinstall.
Recover the applications and data from the TM backup.
It took me about an hour and a half once I decided on this approach, not counting the hours wasted trying to get it working.
To give them credit, the TM backup and restore worked flawlessly and all my apps and data were back without a hitch.
However, reading the other posts in the forum and elsewhere it does appear that Apple has not done a good job with the disk utility in supporting core storage volumes, which is fairly ridiculous since Yosemite defaults to that without giving you a choice.
