Resolved Sonoma 14.5 bugs

[pauclaude]

With version 14.4 Macrumors reports these bugs:

1. USB Hub and Monitor Ports - Lost Connectivity
2. Java Processes - Unexpected Terminations
3. Printer Operation - Removed or Corrupted Drivers
4. iCloud Drive - Destroys Saved Versions

The first two would have been corrected with 14.4.1.
Does anyone know if they are all correct with 14.5? I still have 14.1.2 but I'm afraid to make the upgrade ...

With version 14.4 Macrumors reports these bugs:

Are you sure they are reports of macOS bugs rather than reports of a few people having issues? I have found macOS 14.x versions to be free from bugs (which affect me). You should keep your Mac updated.

I experienced #1 in the past (APPLE said: do not use hubs),
#2 only once, before updating to 14.4.1,
#3 never,
#4 I never use iCLOUD.
Concluding: it is a good advice to update to the latest level, assuming APPLE crew uses the same stuff.
;JOOP!

On my new iMac M3, I experience #1 several times already. Thats the only one from that list.

MacRumors articles are completely wrong 99% of the times, anyway all of 14.4 regressions have been fixed in 14.5.

I think all my problems have been resolved with the "Erase All Contents & Settings" then Setting it up as NEW. No Migration from Time Machine. I just synch up my iCloud account and re-downloaded the Apps I needed fresh from App Store or the Developers Web site. I had so many issues when iMac M3 updated to Sonoma that I ended up doing this. I think May 6 is when I did the purge and start from scratch.
