OSX 10.10.4

I'm using 3 of the Crucial SSDs that are supposedly susceptible to data corruption under Linux, when I was running Mavericks I was unaware of this issue and was using Trim Enabler, I did not notice any issues but of course I do not know for sure. Since installing Yosemite I have not used Trim.

Does anyone know for sure that OS X does not use the same Trim commands (NCQ (queued) TRIM commands ?) that cause these issues under Linux . TBH this all a bit above my technical understanding but there seems to be conflicting reports on this.

Thanks

Upgrade to 10.10.4

Run sudo trimforce enable

Find something else to worry about.

I'm going to add a smiley after that. Please consider how a posted message looks to someone else. If I didn't know you, that would come off as a little dismissive. Thanks!

I found a bug, I think.

When I minimize the iTunes window and a song is playing, it logs me out of my User Account on my iMac. Normally, I log in automatically and never see this screen. Fortunately, after logging back in, my 70 or so tabs of Chrome on three monitors re-connect. If a song is not playing, the window collapses just fine. I tried this 4 times in a row, rebooted and had the same thing happen again.

Anyone else experiencing this? I am not seeing this on any of the support forums (plenty of other iTunes issues but not this).

If not, I wonder what the issue is. Besides iTunes, I have only Chrome, Apple Mail and the DisplayLink drivers for my USB monitor running. I tried quitting Chrome and Mail – no change.

If no one else is experiencing this, I'll fire up Console to see what is happening and call AppleCare. When you do an OS install or upgrade, you have a window for free call-in support.

Well, the support boards are going nuts over the screen issue in iTunes. Weird how the normal report is that it affects everything and, when I ask, the user finally realizes it doesn't affect anything else.

The workaround is still to leave the screem size alone when any music is playing.

So bottom line: iTunes has a GUI/screen bug. Apple needs to fix it. Until that happens, doing anything else is just a waste of time. Life is too short to fiddle with something one can't fix.

There's an iTunes 12.2.1 update that came out this afternoon. At first the behavior was the same but after I rebooted the issue was fixed.
