QUOTE Also, Apple appears to have quietly filed for trademarks on a number of California-themed names which probably will be used for future OS X names. The names include: Yosemite, Redwood, Mammoth,California, Big Sur, Pacific, Diablo, Miramar, Rincon, El Cap, Redtail, Condor, Grizzly, Farallon,Tiburon, Monterey, Skyline, Shasta, Sierra, Mojave, Sequoia, Ventura, and Sonoma.

Look at all my stars!! Senior Member 2,507 posts Joined: Jan 2003	i have a very weird problem on my yosemite... my wifi says i am connected but only chrome can get to the internet. itunes/app store/safari/spotify all state there's no internet connection.when i try to plug in LAN.it says connected but there's no internet. my internet connection is ok.my windows on VM have no problem accessing the internet. already done SMC reset.but still not working. 10.10.2 really troublesome. Fixed. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Open Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities/ or with Spotlight) and enter the following command: sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.discoveryd.plist Hit return and enter an admin password to use the sudo command Now run the following command to reload discoveryd (this used to be called mDNSResponder) sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.discoveryd.plist Again hit Return to finish the command You may need to relaunch apps that require network connectivity. Note that if you reboot the Mac with this one, you will have to repeat the above steps to unload and reload discoveryd into launchd. This post has been edited by Xefron: Mar 26 2015, 01:20 PM

Look at all my stars!! Senior Member 2,507 posts Joined: Jan 2003	QUOTE(Joelles @ Feb 2 2015, 04:52 PM) It's working flawlessly in 10.10.1 before and once I updated to the 10.10.2 nightmares begins. I need to turn "Off" and "On" the wifi in order for it to works for few seconds or minutes then it will automatically unable to connect to the internet. Sometimes the wifi icon becomes grey and sometimes with an exclamation markon it as well. This is really frustrating since my networks only depends on Wifi due to certain reasons. last night both of my MBA and MBP have problem with the WiFi.both are on 10.10.2 then the nightmare begins... both show connected...but no internet. done a NVRAM reset and SMC reset but to no avail.Reloading the dicsoveryd daemons also does not work. at last decide to clean install back the yosemite and now MBP is working fine hopefully. now my MBA is stuck.i can't do an internet recovery since the wifi is not working. now need to do an USB startup disk first after work.

Senior Member 2,507 posts Joined: Jan 2003	QUOTE(ciwi1166 @ Mar 30 2015, 03:19 PM) the wifi problem for me still persists after upgrade to 10.10.2.. symptoms exactly like Joelles ... did u manage to solve it? i have no freaking ideas. i did a clean install on my mbp to yosemite and the wifi is working like usual. but not the case for my mba...clean install doesn't help. downgrade to maverick,problem is still there...but with less occurrences.(if i do any torrent activities the wifi will hang) but i realize,when i restart the router ,the wifi will works fine back until the connection drop again. don't think it is the router.... my windows laptops/iphone/ipad is working fine.all of this problem start when i switch to Airport Extreme when the previous ASUS died. QUOTE(astro85 @ Mar 31 2015, 03:33 AM) Possible to downgrade Yosemite to Mavericks ??? So lag on my macbook now ... huhu ... yes.wipe clean your drive first then install maverick from a USB.
