Yosemite has been "safe" on our six Macs since day one. It was intolerant of an improperly signed driver for an astronomical CCD camera, but a bit of gobbledygook entered in the terminal fixed that. That said, I can't think of any improvement over Mavericks. As for ratings on Apple's web site, remember that the few millions for whom Yosemite works just fine are unlikely to seek out a place to rate it because they're too busy using it. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm

It's safe but has many little issues. Here are some I've had:
- won't wake an Apple TV from sleep (Air Play).
(Workaround: leave Apple TV on).
- USB drives dismounting spontaneously. This happened in Mavericks too,
but is worse in Yosemite.
- Search (and other options) using the expansion arrows not available
from Finder when Finder window is narrow.
(Workaround: use CMD-F)
- Mail broken in various ways including losing settings for mail providers.
(Workaround: deselect "automatic detect and maintain account
settings")
Various others that you can find with a Google search relating to Mail,
Safari, Spotlight, Bluetooth, WiFi, etc.
Is it "safe" to use. Sure. Is it annoying. Yep.

LOL! If that's your gauge, you shouldn't be using any software at all, since all software has bugs and is "dangerous"! I've been using Yosemity since release and have zero significant issues with it. ; ) -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter. I often ignore posts from Google.

Yes, there are numerous reports of Macs that have been upgraded to Yosemite and which then rise up and strangle their owners in their sleep. WTF? You don't actually seem to be asking a question. I've been using Yosemite since it came out and nothing bad has happened. My computer hasn't crashed, no data has been lost, it's still easy to use.

No problems here whatsoever. Then again I almost always seem to be one of the lucky ones when it comes to OS X upgrades. Been using OS X since it came out (10.0) and the only real show-stopper for me was the 10.3 --> 10.4 upgrade when Apple broke the Oxford 911 Firewire drivers.
