I abandoned the update eventually.
Going to set off the download before I go to bed & hopefully it'll be done by the morning.
New itunes is done though. It's got a red icon now.

Yeah, I noticed the new icon but thought it was because I didn't enter/udate credit card details when asked.

We will see.

Every time they re-hash that train wreck of an app, the cover art icons seem to treble in size.
I think they are catering for people with bad eyesight

Downloading iTunes 12.0.1 before the loooooong process of installing Yosemite. I've had an icloud issue as well this evening, my phone suddenly started asking me to sign into iMessage, FaceTime et al so I've changed the password for that as well & started the ball rolling for 2-step verification God knows what happened there, I don't think I was phished...

I wanted to take Reggie out for an early walk. Decided to instal Yosemite Sam before I went. It's now later than I wanted & I'll now bump into people on the walk *shudders* I've also now got incompatible 3rd party software on my macbook; why?????!! It's too early for this sh!t, I haven't had coffee yet!!

Yep. It doesn't take too kindly to 3rd party applications apparently. They'll slow down the installation.....
I like the new spotlight quite a lot & the new font's smart too.
However, the new Finder icon I am finding a little bit too jolly looking.

It threw it's teddy out with my kindle app, that's now in a nice separate folder apparently, where incompatible apps go

I've already become accustomed to the new OS as my fella got his mitts on the beta. I actually like the dock, but that may be, again, because I've already seen it a fair bit.

The spotlight annoys me tbh, it does on iOS 8 so that's not changed my feelings towards it.

Finder's just the same lol!! It's been like that for forever!

I never use that option to be honest.
& as for itunes itself, I am seriously looking for an alternative now that will mate with the iProd
