    It always seems like Apple fixes those kind of glitches pretty quickly. Hope they fix it for you.

    I am running several versions back (12 I think). Every "upgrade" seems to hurt battery life and change things I don't care to have changed. So I simply don't update.

    APPL is known to degrade performance of older products with "updates." I have not bought a product from that scam of a company since 1997 when they told me if I upgraded my own ram it would void the warranty and they would not send me the proprietary tool to unscrew one of the screws keeping the chasis together. Basically you had to ship it to them to get it apart. Screw them.

    GM told me I'd void the warranty by putting forged pistons and forged rods in my motor, and wouldn't send me the proprietary tools to R&R the balancer, or properly align the oil pan.

    I did it anyway.

    The main problem was they had a proprietary screw type and this was pre google/amazon. I couldn't find it anywhere at any hardware store and so I was going to have to break the chassis to get the system open. **** them.

    I'm curious what product you're referring to. In 1997 Apple computers were built using more or less off the shelf stuff. ATX power supplies, commodity chassis, PCI/AGP slots, etc. No special tools outside of a phillips screwdriver were needed.

    The first proprietary screws I remember Apple using were the pentalobes, over a decade later. Before the tools came out I just filed a flat blade to snugly fit and removed 'em that way.

    PowerMac G3 or G2 been a while but it definitely had a proprietary star screw on it.

    There was no G2. I had a G4, no tools were needed. The case opened by flipping up the ring on the side and dropping the side. The screws were standard torx, and there was a torx key in a slot right next to the motherboard.

    14.01 stinks on phones as well as iPads. Ringer and alarm volumes are randomly turned to zero.

    I’m resorting to having to use my wristwatch alarm as backup.

    Not sure then Brains we could dig up an original PowerMac and a G3 and see which one has it.
