Hi all, I'm spending a foolish amount of time dealing with what seems to be unreliable Apple software, such as
* Time Machine corrupting backups, and needing backups to be deleted and remade [1]. * Safari crashing pretty often [2]. * Errors when backing up my iPhone requiring me to throw out old backups to get iTunes to cooperate. [3] * Calendar.app screwing up entries if it decides to sync with iCloud while an entry is being edited. [4] * Chasing changes to unix behavior on updating to Sierra. [5] More and more, I get the bad feeling I'm using an old version of MS Word or MS Windows. Is anyone else getting this feeling that either Apple's QA department has been fired or their software has become such a collection of patches that it cannot be properly debugged anymore? Am I just the lucky recipient of a bad series of coincidences? Bill [1] Defeating the purpose of incremental backups. [2] The crash I had reported here (crashing at weather.gov) kept recurring at random times and different sites. I reported it and got a 'duplicate bug' answer... but no resolution for two months now. [3] Once again defeating the purpose of backing up. [4] A very long-standing bug (over 3 years). [5] Specifically ssh
