OS X Yosemite (/joʊˈsɛmɪtiː/yoh-SEM-it-ee) (version 10.10) is the eleventh major release of OS X (now named macOS), Apple Inc.'s desktop and server operating system for Macintosh computers.
To install macOS Mojave, your Mac needs at least 2GB of memory and 12.5GB of available storage space to upgrade—or up to 18.5GB of storage space when upgrading from OS X Yosemite or earlier. Learn how to free up space.
OS X Yosemite was announced and released to developers on June 2, 2014 at WWDC 2014 and released to public beta testers on July 24, 2014. Yosemite was released to consumers on October 16, 2014.[3] Following the Northern California landmark-based naming scheme introduced with OS X Mavericks, Yosemite is named after the national park.

System requirements[edit]
All Macintosh products capable of running OS X Mountain Lion (v10.8.x) are able to run Yosemite as they have the same requirements.[4] However, to take full advantage of the Handoff feature, additional minimum system requirements include a Mac with Bluetooth LE (Bluetooth 4.0). As with Mavericks and Mountain Lion, 2GB of RAM, 8GB of available storage, and OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) or later are required.
These are the models that are compatible with OS X Yosemite (with exceptions):
- iMac (Mid 2007 or later)
- MacBook (Aluminum Late 2008 and Early 2009 or later)
- MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2009 or later; 15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later; 17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
- MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
- Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
- Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later) (Can run on a mid-2006 version if one upgrades to a supported graphics chip and utilizes a custom bootloader)
- Xserve (Early 2009)
These are the models that support new features such as Handoff, Instant Hotspot as well as AirDrop between Mac computers and iOS devices:[5]
- MacBook Air (Mid 2012 or later)
- MacBook Pro (Mid 2012 or later)
- iMac (Late 2012 or later)
- Mac Mini (Late 2012 or later)
- Mac Pro (Late 2013)
Features[edit]
Design[edit]
Yosemite introduced a major overhaul of OS X's user interface. Its graphics replaced skeuomorphism with flat graphic design and blurred translucency effects, following the aesthetic introduced with iOS 7. Some icons have been changed to correspond with those of iOS 7 and iOS 8. Yosemite maintains the OS Xdesktop metaphor.[6]
Other design changes include new icons, light and dark color schemes, and the replacement of Lucida Grande with Helvetica Neue as the default system typeface.[7][8][9] The Dock is now a 2D translucent rectangle instead of a skeuomorphic glass shelf, reminiscent of the Dock design used in early versions of OS X through Tiger and in iOS since iOS 7.
Continuity[edit]
Many of Yosemite's new features focus on the theme of continuity, increasing its integration with other Apple services and platforms such as iOS and iCloud.[10] The Handoff functionality allows the operating system to integrate with iOS 8 devices over Bluetooth LE and Wi-Fi; users can place and answer phone calls using their iPhone as a conduit, send and receive text messages, activate personal hotspots, or load items being worked on in a mobile app (such as Mail drafts or Numbersspreadsheets) directly into their desktop equivalent.[10]
Notification Center[edit]
Notification Center features a new 'Today' view, similar to that in iOS. The Today view can display information and updates from various sources, along with widgets.[7][8] The widgets in the Today view are similar to those of iOS 8.
Photos[edit]
As of OS X 10.10.3, Photos replaces iPhoto and Aperture.[11] It uses iCloud Photo Library to upload all the user's photos across their devices.
Other[edit]
Spotlight is a more prominent part of the operating system; it now displays its search box in the center of the screen and can include results from online sources, including Bing, Maps, and Wikipedia.[7] Stock applications such as Safari and Mail have been updated.[12] In particular, many security features have been added to Safari, such as a custom history clearing option that lets users clear history, cookies, and other data from the previous hour, day, or two days. In addition, Apple added DuckDuckGo to its search offerings, a non-tracking search engine that doesn’t store users’ data.[13] Safari allows you to remotely close tabs from an iOS device.[14]Safari now supports browsing in private browsing mode with certain windows (as opposed to all the windows having to be either in or out of private browsing).[15]
The green 'zoom' button on windows now has a different function in applications that support full screen mode. Instead of simply enlarging the window, the button now enters full screen mode, eliminating the full screen button at the top right corner of windows that has been present since Mac OS X Lion. However, holding the Option key (⌥) while clicking the zoom button or double-clicking on the window chrome continues to invoke the original behavior.[16]:123–124
JavaScript for Automation (JXA) is the new system-wide support for scripting with JavaScript, built upon JavaScriptCore and the Open Scripting Architecture.[17] It features an Objective-C bridge which enables entire Cocoa applications to be programmed in JavaScript.[18]
Along with other framework changes, CloudKit was integrated in this release.[19] CloudKit functions as a Mobile Backend as a Service (MBaaS) and is one method for App developers to integrate access to Apple’s iCloud servers into their apps.[20]
There is a 'dark mode' in System Preferences which makes the dock and menu bar darker.[14]
Beta testing[edit]
Apple initiated a new public beta program for OS X, a practice not seen with its operating systems since 2000's US$29.95Mac OS X Public Beta, which had preceded the release of Mac OS X v10.0. Yosemite is part of the OS X Beta Seed Program, a public program that allows the first 1 million[21] users to download and test the Yosemite beta at no charge. Beta testers are required to acknowledge the potential risks involved with prerelease software, and sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA).[22] The program began releasing Public Betas on July 24, 2014.[23] Six public betas of Yosemite were released.

Reception[edit]
On release, Yosemite received positive reviews, with users praising the simplified user interface. Programmer John Siracusa, who had reviewed every OS release, wrote for Ars Technica that 'Yosemite is an aesthetic one-way valve... switching back to Mavericks after a week or two in Yosemite is like returning to iOS 6. Everything looks embarrassingly chunky, glossy, and gaudy.'[24] Macworld's review generally praised Yosemite for its design, but noted that it had found WiFi network issues and that Continuity had proved unreliable.[25]
Criticism[edit]
Yosemite faced problems with network stability and the discoveryd
DNS system. Because of this, Apple reverted discoveryd
back to the mDNSResponder
system (used in Mavericks) in 10.10.4.[26] Another notable bug experienced on Yosemite was the 'unicode of death' problem, following a similar bug in 2013, in which a meaningless Arabic text string could crash applications using the system text-display APIs.[27] Some users that upgraded to Yosemite complained that the Finder fails to show the contents of folders.[28]
Software developers and users have argued that Apple's yearly release schedule and development practices have compromised stability, and meant that no version of OS X is truly recommendable for users requiring reliability above new user interface design and features.[29][30][31][32][33][34]
Spotlight on Yosemite by default reports the user's current location (at the city level) and all their search queries to Apple and third parties.[35][36][37][38] Reporting by Spotlight can be disabled by the user, although, even if this is done, the Safariweb browser will continue to send search terms to Apple unless the function is separately disabled.
