Yosemite upgrade bricked my computer
So like an idiot I decide to upgrade, and don't think to Time Machine first. Because Apple stuff is pretty awesome and Yosemite isn't in Beta.
So I get the upgrade to Yosemite and restart. This leads to my computer doing the following
White screen.... progress bar.... taking forever....
when it gets to 99, the computer shuts off.
So I start the computer up again and OH! There's the white screen, progress bar, redoing the install, taking forever, at about 99% computer shuts off
I can't repair disk, recover, or do anything. I want my software still so "erase everything" isn't an option, how do I recover even if I have to go back to Mavericks?
Check the bottom of the computer to see if the serial number is there.
Startup - Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
Startup - Gray Screen

If it still won't start,
Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Then re-install the OS. This shouldn't delete your data.

computer freezes after installing Yosemite upgrade when you click on something the colored wheel pops up and takes forever to execute
Boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down), select Disk Utility and repair both the disk permissions and the disk. Reboot normally and check the performance. Any improvement?
Have you run any "cleaning" or "optimizing" apps on your Mac or install any antivirus software? Download and run Etrecheck. Copy and paste the results into your reply.

Hello,
I am having trouble with my MacBook Air 13 inch June 2012 MacBook Air5, 2 4GB RAM details below in Etresoft report. I recently upgraded to Yosemite and am having system trouble. My computer crashes and I have to force quit to restart. When using webmail there is a black screen for a split second between pages. This did not happen before. I am worried that it is not running properly and perhaps I need to revert to the previous operating system. I only have a MacBook Air and no need to share images between a tablet or phone so I did not need the new photo sharing software of Yosemite. I wonder if I don't have enough RAM to run it? I did not run time machine before I made the upgrade as I did not realise the significance of an upgrade as not very Mac literate. Any advice on whether my system is in danger... most appreciated! I am writing a book and making a back up but this machine is my lifeline and my work is conducted through it. It ran perfectly before... the Yosemite upgrade has perhaps highlighted some problems and it has unnerved me!
Thanks ever so much for your advice!

Hi,
Great work on Yosemite, great new design as well.
Several problems since the Yosemite upgrade though :
- When playing high pitch noise (watching the keynote for example), the speakers make the case around it vibrate. This was not happening under Mavericks and previous OSXs.
- This page (post editing) does not allow the right click (works everywhere else as far as I'm aware).
- when changing the volume, I have now the noise feedback when clicking on shift+volume up/down and no sound when clicking on volume up/down on my keyboard (was the inverse before).
- The keyboard light was stuck in off, had to restart the computer.
More general problems (covering the last OSX since introduction of 10.9) :
- lack of possibility of choosing for a 3x3 set of desktops as it was before (the new mission control only allow us to have a horizontal set of several desktops)
- Notifications cannot be turned off automatically when being in full screen. (only options for auto turn off given are "display is sleeping" oO and when "mirroring on another display" -> meh, would have prefer when having an app in full screen)

After installing Yosemite upgrade, can't access documents and files
I installed the Yosemite upgrade without making a proper backup first, not realizing what a major upgrade this is. During the install, I was prompted to create a new user account. Now that the upgrade is complete, when signed in as the new user, I can see my files and documents listed in a Device called “Guest’s MacBook Pro,” but when I try to access them, I’m told I don’t have permission to see the folders' contents.
I should add that I bought this machine used, and I have always used it under the name “Guest.”
Please help me access my stuff! Thanks in advance.

Yosemite Upgrade slowed MacBook Pro to a crawl
Hi Folks,
I'm relatively new to a Mac, and so, after upgrading to Mountain Lion and then Maverick and enjoying all the great benefits, not the least a little performance boost, I was eager to upgrade to Yosemite when it arrived.
Unfortunately, it's not been a good upgrade for me. In fact, I'm researching how to go back to Maverick. But, before I do, thought I'd share and see if there were some obvious issues being overlooked.
I've already turned off FileVault encryption which helped, but not enough to get back to the Joys of why I've transitioned to a Mac and have been enjoying it so much ever since. Thank God I didn't wait until Yosemite to give Macs a try, the Yosemite experience is not enjoyable, at all.
Everything is now so 'laggy', so much latency in every mouse move, selection, typing, etc...., everything. Try selecting a file while the Finder window is painting and the file lines jump up or down, 5 or 6 tries is the probability of actually getting the right file selected. Scrolling, what a nightmare, have to think Scrolls ahead, that is, attempt scroll down and wait until something happens if it ever does, because if you don't wait the window will scroll up and down catching up to all the scrolls being tried, and trying to stabilize that means more scroll commands queued up to act on, and..... will it ever scroll to where I need it? Just wait, either for the Scroll storm to subside or something to happen is the best choice.
So, obviously not a working situation. In any case, reading through these forums I see where EtreCheck is recommended and I've downloaded and run it. My results are below, and, with all the red marked lines. I'm pretty sure there are some issues to resolve but I don't know what to interpret from it. I did see where deleting .plist files and rebooting allowed Yosemite to recreate them and that solved performance issues for some. But, not willing to delete these many without some guidance and certainly not knowing whether it will do any good.
A minor note, Parallels was shutting down during EtreCheck run, so the 100% cpu listed may be a red-herring.
Thanks for any help,
KWL

Opinions sought: could Yosemite upgrade affect hardware?
Hi there,
I installed Yosemite on my late-2010 MacBook Pro last week and had a whole host of problems, including an erratic/unresponsive trackpad, which got worse the longer the computer was running.
Due to some poor decisions on my part [!] I ended up with a totally broken machine, so reinstalled Snow Leopard from DVD. Thought the trackpad would work normally again, but the problem persisted, albeit to a lesser degree. Mentioned it to a friend, saying it was odd as I'd not had dropped my laptop or had any spills and she told me that someone she knows at Apple had said that software upgrades could, in fact, affect the hardware.
Roll forward a week, I'm at the Genius Bar explaining my story and the Genius talks to his manager. Comes back and insists that because the trackpad issue happens on two operating systems, it must be a coincidence that it happened at the same time as I installed Yosemite, and as the machine is out of warranty I'll have to pay for a new trackpad to be installed. Seeing thousands of people here and on Reddit etc. with difficulties after upgrading makes me suspicious that we've all had coincidences like this, but maybe he was right... I notice in the work authorisation document, he didn't make any mention of installing Yosemite, which has annoyed me a bit.
I'm mostly curious what people think. I'm not too upset about having to pay for a £70 repair on a four-year-old machine, even though in my head I'm utterly convinced it was because of the Yosemite upgrade that it stopped working. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks for your time, knowledgeable Apple Support Communities users!Was definitely worth leaving it to the professionals then!
I have it back now. They blamed a liquid spill... that happened so long ago (mid-August – when I said in my original post I'd not had any spills, I meant since I'd upgraded to Yosemite last week) that I didn't think it could possibly be that. So lesson learned, a liquid spill that doesn't cause a single problem for three months can suddenly cause your computer to become totally useless.
But they've also reinstalled Yosemite, so I feel like I've got a new computer for £70 or so, which is pretty sweet. And they said between 3-5 days, but I had it back within 24 hours. -
Late 2012 Mac Mini slow after Yosemite upgrade
First time on forums - hope Im not asking a questions that has been asked several times before. I purchased a mac mini not even a year ago, and its was plenty fast until I updated to Yosemite. I also found a link to Etresoft from another questions and ran it. For the sake of expediency - Ill go ahead and post the results. Any thoughts? - all help is more appreciated than I can express in words..

Feb 6, 2015, 07:49:11 PM /Users/[redacted]/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/DashlaneAgent_2015-02-06-19491 1_[redacted].crash1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in 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 and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
[Process started]
Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
The results are on the Clipboard.
Please close this window.
[Process completed]
The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it. Then go to the next step.
12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I may not agree with them.

Mac Mini (Mid-2011 Core i7) Slow after Yosemite Upgrade
I've searched the other "slow after Yosemite upgrade" threads but those seem to relate to Core Duo 2 machines with less RAM. I have a Core i7 MM w/ 8GB of RAM, after the Yosemite upgrade it constantly lags, I can barely type on it these days because the text lags so badly. It's unusable to say the least. Is there anything I can do to speed it up? There must be a reason why the performance is so bad.

Slow after Yosemite upgrade.

Lost iTunes Authorizations after Yosemite Upgrade
I was running the latest version of iTunes on Mavericks and it was authorized. I had used all 5 authorizations before starting the upgrade. After upgrading to Yosemite (I did not do an erase and install. I did the standard upgrade) I opened iTunes and noticed it was no longer authorized. I tried to authorize it and saw that all 5 of them were in use. I didn't know what else to do so I logged into my iTunes store account and did the once a year reset. I went back to iTunes and authorized. I have restarted the machine a few times and think it has used up more authorization slots. I went and added my second computer the other day and now it says I have used 4 total. I have done many upgrades over the years (since puma) and have never had this issue before and It all started with the Yosemite upgrade.
Does anyone know what might be causing this or a suggestion for a fix?
ThanksSee Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash.

Hi, I have an imac which runs on OS X Mavericks 10.9.5, everytime i try to download the Yosemite upgrade, it loads, then on restart it constantly fails on installation. please help, btw, speak very simple to me, i'm not a tech person at all lol
I installed Yosemite on my MacBook Air and have numerous problems with it. I suggest you don't upgrade. Keep Maverick. I have to restart the computer numerous times and sometimes it will finally start up. Right now, I'm in safe mode.

SMTP POP Mac mail Yosemite Upgrade Issues
I have used mac mail for years with little or no problem, however, Yosemite is another story.
The SMTP outgoing mail will not work.
Often times when I am trying to figure out the problem by input changes into my mail preferences
the computer does not ask me to save. Thus it all goes back offline. The problem just all of a
sudden happened with no reason and for a week now, off and on I have been trying to fix this.
Apple charges money over the phone, have to drive 30 miles to a genius bar or fix it myself.
Should I try to go backwards to Maverick? My Yosemite upgrade originated from Snow Leopard.
I thought Apple was the computer elite. What was wrong with the old email? I'm so frustrated.Open Mail app, go to the top panel and select WIndow > Connection Doctor.
What is the error message (or messages) that the Connection Doctor is reporting?

How do I fix my iPhoto after Yosemite upgrade?
I Just recently upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. I had to update my iPhoto a couple of times on my external hard drive before I could view my photos. Everything looked great, same as before w/ events & everything. The next day, I plugged my external hard drive in & I was asked to do another update. Then stated that my iPhoto was empty! I did an Option + Command to recover my photos. Once it finished, it's stated that it could read all, but 760 photos. The photos that were downloaded are lumped into one event and turned into duplicates and triplicates with head shots of everybody in each of the photos. Very confusing! How do I get my iPhoto back to the way it was, complete with normal photos and events?
First, I had to update the iPhoto app so that it was compatible with the Yosemite upgrade. Then, I had to update the library 3 or 4 times. The iPhoto on my external hard drive eventually opened and had all my photos in all their correct events. However, when I opened my iPhoto on my external hard drive the next day, it said I had to update the library again. Upon doing so it showed my library as being empty. I did an iPhoto First Aide, which is open the app while holding down the Option + Command keys. The iPhoto Library First Aid dialogue box pops up & I clicked on Repair Database. After 9 hours it recovered all but 760 photos. However, the photos are in duplicate & triplicate form. Also, if there was a picture with several people in it, it created a headshot of each person & turned it into a photo. All my photos are also now in one event.
I Should add that I have an iPhoto library on the computer's hard drive & it opens & works just fine. My external has the majority of my business photos & that is the one I am having trouble with. -
Yosemite Upgrade on mid 2012 Macbook Pro
How does the Yosemite upgrade perform on Yosemite upgrade performance mid 2012 Macbook Pro with 2.5Ghz i5 processor and 16GB RAM?
I haven't had any problems on several upgrades. You should do this in advance as a precaution:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Yosemite, Mavericks, Mountain Lion or Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the 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.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list. Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility 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 Disk Utility and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
