I am NOT happy with Lion!!!
Rarely if ever had a problem with Snow Leopard. Wanted to take advantage of my iCloud with iPhone, so I upgraded to Lion.
The first of many hangs resulted in the OS just randomly (or seemingly randomly) spinning the color wheel and not responding.
On the Snow Leopard OS I could always open Activity Monitor and kill any process that was not responding.... but in Lion the Activity Monitor will not open... in fact the wheel will spin for hours if I let it.
So multiple times, I had to do a hard shut down (holding down the power button). After a few times of having to do this my hard disk Crashed... Was the Hard Drive going bad before all this?... I doubt it.
Thankfully all my stuff is backed up so no worries there.
So, I installed a new hard drive... installed Snow Leopard from my CDs... then I upgraded to Lion.... I didn't install any apps, software or the like... it was as pure an upgrade as possible... and it STILL it has stability issues and hangs several times a week....
WHAT THE **** IS GOING ON?
I don't need iCloud this bad... it's been painful and I am SO close to reverting back to Snow Leopard...
Somebody, PLEASE, tell me what patch, or setting I need to adjust.
Thanks for listening to my rant.
