slowdown5646 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 No issues on El Capitan for me, in fact the shaky mediocre bluetooth problem I had with Yosemite appears to be gone. I have a Peachtree deepblue2 and interference would occur too constantly to play anything from my Macbook, now it's flawless (except when I shake my laptop around furiously, which I can't say I do ever).

RobbieC Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I experienced a little hiccup with the upgrade. EC would not recognize my USB DAC when Yosemite had. A few restarts and unplugging/plugging back in and it's back but still keeping my eye on Audio MIDI Setup...keeps changing format setting. Rob C Link to comment
REShaman Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 My wife called me over to help her with the spinning beach ball. She was in Outlook for Mac 2011. I waved my magic wand and did this and that and the spinning beach ball did not reappear. This is "new" since upgrading to El Capitan. Well, it's back, and I am not sure what is triggering Outlook for Mac 2011 to "crash" essentially, which is what the spinning beach ball is signifying -- that is, Outlook is not responsive. What happened? El Capitan? Microsoft? Always something with Outlook for Mac but never this beach ball barrage. Merde! It's undoable. Or fixable if that makes more sense. But I have to jump through hoops to recover. Anyone experiencing trouble with Outlook For Mac 2011 since upgrading to El Capitan. Other than this obstacle which only surfaced a day or so after El Capitan was installed, El Capitan is Capital! There's always something... Best, Richard Link to comment

Response from Microsoft (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3098396) is to use Yosemite, and not El Capitan at the moment, but you might find something useful elsewhere. Link to comment

They are simply saying to not use this week's new release of OS X if a particular incompatibility between it and Outlook 2011 is/will impact you. Link to comment

But it's not a surprise that the new OS was coming out. Every other major company uses the betas to test and update their software on the new release before it comes out. Maybe I'm exaggerating and this is just a small bug impacting a minority of users, but if it isnt why didn't they fix it already?

Jud Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Last night I have installed El Capitan too. However in contrast to Richard I have come across some points that restrict my joy. 1. So far I have been a fan of improving SQ by removing services. With EC for the first time I have not been successful to do so. When trying to get rid of one a message pops up saying that it is not allowed to alter the OS X. What a pity! I would be glad if someone reading these lines could show me a way what to do. 2. For a long time I have been fond of using 2 RAM disks, one for copying music files to, the other for a copy of iTunes. Unfortunately with EC this last copy can no longer be opened. What a pity too! Hopefully Jud and/or Le Concombre Masqué can help me. 3. Since its first release I have successfully used the CAD script to improve SQ. You can still set it to work but activity monitor shows constant background activity. Every second or so a little peak shows up making the line look like saw teeth. So I deactivated the CAD script hoping that Scott will update it in the near future. Regards, Uwe Regarding RAMdisks: I bug reported this to Apple. They insisted they did not have the problem and it must be something with my system. I directed them to a report of the same behavior by another user and never heard back.

Hi Uwe, I forgot to ask whether disabling SIP helped with the RAM disk problem. Link to comment

I just didn't agree with your assessment that Microsoft were implying that user stupidity was to blame. I didn't mean user stupidity per se, I meant users using the "wrong" OS from a Microsoft perspective. That said, often enough they don't even fix stuff on their own platform in time.

Hello goldsdad, Once again, thank you for your information. The recent update from Microsoft re Office For Mac 2011, I expected, was released to work with El Capitan. The benefit of the doubt is oft disproved by the subsequent performance toll. Yikes! Best, Richard Link to comment

Teresa Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Help! What the hell has happened to Safari on my Mac Mini with the upgrade to El Capitan and Safari 9.0? On Safari > Preferences > Privacy there was a ton of websites including ones I have never visited, tracking ones, advertising ones, etc., so I changed "Cookies and Website Data" from "Allow from Websites I visit" to "Always Block" After doing that 37 websites have stored cookies and other data only moments after I deleted everything. Including Facebook and Twitter and I'm haven't been a member of either one in many, many years. See pictures. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I keep my Privacy tab clean and have never had most of those sites listed there before. I'm afraid to do anything on the internet until this is fixed. I usually have between 5 to 10 websites that I actually have visited listed as having cookies stored in my Privacy tab. In the past few days I have deleted all website data, perhaps over 25 times and the crap keeps coming back, anyone know how to get rid of this crap for good other than giving up the internet? I have dementia. I save all my posts in a text file I call Forums. I do a search in that file to find out what I said or did in the past. I still love music. Teresa Link to comment

Best, Richard Richard - in essence you are "honked". I was a long time beta tester for El Capitan, and had Outlook 2011. Always beach balled. I was able to resolve by switching to the new Microsoft Office 2016 for Mac. Which I know is not necessarily an option you want to pursue. I was able to do this because this is what we upgraded to at work. Very unfortunate situation, as has been pointed out in prior posts, Microsoft has been aware of this issue for many, many months.

wgscott Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I've never touched Outlook, but the Office 2016 for the Mac is a very pleasant surprise, even from my microsoft-hating mac fanboi biased perspective. Plus, the subscription comes with 1TB free remote storage space. Link to comment
jazthedj Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I am a service tech and 7/10 a spinning wheel is the beginning signs of drive failure. The rate of failure is high on a drive that's 3 years and older. Link to comment
baddog Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Respectfully I got the beachball of death with El Capitan and Outlook 2011. Once I upgraded to 2016 no more beachball. This was on two different machines - both with SSD drives - one 3 1/2 years old, the other one year old.

Hello baddog, and Bill, Appreciate that you share your experiences with me about El Capitan and Office For Mac. I have been anticipating and vigilant for the single purchase edition of Office For Mac 2016. But so far, no joy! baddog, appreciate your metaphor ("honked") to alert me to the writing on the wall. Actually, I am planning to purchase Office For Mac 2016 as I have been doing since 2008. I prefer the standalone edition to the 365 subscription edition of Office For Mac 2016. I thought by now the standalone edition would have been released but no firm announcement. October? November? And, thank you to Bill as well. I am aware of the offer of 1TB with the subscription edition. I may not be a glutton for beach balls, but I am willing to hold out for the single purchase edition. These experiences, given my history with Microsoft Office back when, and Office For Mac starting with 2008 and my first Mac (a early 2008 Mac Pro) have been the SOP with Microsoft. It's always been a Love/Hate relationship for me. Hoping for sooner than later. With appreciation, Richard Link to comment
