14 DAY TRIAL // Apple’s recently-deployed OS X 10.9.2 update for Mavericks customers was said to deliver a huge number of fixes and enhancements, but some of the most annoying bugs reported in the past six months are still there unfortunately.
I’d been waiting for OS X 10.9.2 sitting on the edge of my seat, and when the update finally arrived, I quickly realized that the most annoying bugs were still not fixed.
For example, scrolling. It’s even more crippled than before, and now it completely freezes the Mac App Store if you do so much as scroll a millimeter horizontally. Apple has botched up Mavericks one too many times!
Mail is another example. It crashes for a lot of users despite OS X 10.9.2 delivering “general improvements to the stability and compatibility of Mail,” improved accuracy of unread counts, and a “fixed issue that prevented Mail from receiving new messages from certain providers.”
It doesn’t look like Apple is on the right track with these updates as more and more users continue to report issues with their 10.9.2 experience on the Apple Support Communities forum, including hangs and freezes of the entire OS sometimes. Safari users are also reporting crashes. Apple, what gives?
