DP seems fine and the machine, overall, is responding much faster, especially launching apps but in general, as well (graphics, etc). DP actually greeted me with the splash screen once! Then not so much... LOL

They've also fixed calling up the Dashboard while in a browser. It was seriously broken in every browser, but now it works like in the "old days." LOL It really seems like the OS is running more smoothly. Maybe the cache files were all deleted and it'll slow down as they fill up. Hope not.

No ill effects, here. Maybe even a few improvements. Safari may actually be usable again, and I might ditch Evernote, as it has become less and less useful to me over the years (I still have Stickies!). DP 9.02 doesn't even notice the change.

That's interesting. I couldn't do that with AlphaTrack... at least not with earlier versions of El Cap.

I cannot lock notes on my Mac. I'm on iOS 9.2.1 so I'll update that and see how it goes.mikehalloran wrote:Hmmm... Treating Notes like it might be a real application—about time.

Might be a problem on an iPhone 5s.

I have noticed that Logic Pro X 10.2 loads much faster. I hardly use it but I always test the boot and load time.
