Apple’s Mac OS X Yosemite (OS X 10.10) has been floating around in public beta for a few months now, and Apple said it would be available this fall when the operating system was unveiled at WWDC. Since then, we’ve seen new iPhones, a crazy watch, a new version of iOS, but no new info on an official release date.
Well the wait is over. Yosemite is available to the masses starting today as a free download on compatible Macs running OS X 10.6.8 or later.
The new version of Apple’s operating system includes a slew of tweaks and enhancements, including deeper and more-visual Spotlight searches, a revamped Safari browser, PDF-signing and image-markup features in its Mail program, a new-look Notification Center, and easier cross-platform interactions between iOS devices and Macs thanks to its Continuity features, which will be available Monday.
Our own Christina Bonnington has been using Mac OS X Yosemite since its public-beta release, and her in-depth coverage of the operating system’s new features can be found below. Plus, check out our visual tour of Yosemite’s new tricks.
