Apple on Monday issued the first OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite beta to developers, with the first maintenance update seed coming more than two weeks after the latest Mac operating system saw release in mid-October.
With the first test version of Apple's upcoming Yosemite maintenance update, dubbed build 14B17, Apple asks developers to focus on Wi-Fi, Exchange accounts in Mail and Notification Center.
It is unclear exactly what Apple has fixed and changed in the latest Yosemite version, though users have been reporting issues with Wi-Fi connectivity and Bluetooth since upgrading to Yosemite. As for Mail, the first-party Apple app has historically seen problems with other services like Microsoft's Exchange and Google's Gmail.
Developers can access OS X 10.10.1 via the Mac App Store's software update mechanism.

OMG! You can't add a second decimal point to that number¡ Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, CEO [I]choosing[/I] to be gay… mass hysteria!¡
Wifi connectivity has been the only issue for me. I'm looking forward to iOS 8 bug fixes more than anything in regards to Yosemite.
I have not found any bugs in Yosemite but it sure would be nice if they brought back a few things or at least allow users to choose whether or not to turn them on - like favicons in Safari. Trying to sort thru bookmarks without favicons is murder. I know it looks "cleaner" without them but usability . . . . meh!
Some of the movie files that I had working perfectly under Snow Leopard no longer will open up in Yosemite.
I looked into it briefly, and I found out that it has something to do with Perian no longer supporting the newest Mac OSes.
I'm still looking for a replacement.

I looked into it briefly, and I found out that it has something to do with Perian no longer supporting the newest Mac OSes. I'm still looking for a replacement. [/quote] Years ago Perian recommended alternatives because the plugin was no longer going to be supported. I prefer to run everything though iVI Pro so they will be native to QT as H.264 but if you don't want to spend the nominal fee there is Handbrake, VLC, Movist, and countless other options available.
