[QUOTE="PsYkOoOoO, post: 903633, member: 52176"] I've upgraded to Snow Leopard for about a week now, and I've had a lot of problems with it. 1) iPhoto takes forever to start up, and forever to close as well. It will cause the entire system to become sluggish, and I do wonder if it is because I have too many pictures inside. 2) Safari 4 doesn't handle multi-tabs very well. Whenever I open too many tabs, the beach ball will appear and, like the iPhoto case, slow down the entire system to a crawl. 3) Applications have been crashing left and right. iTunes 8, Adium, Skype, TweetDeck, and it doesn't seem to be just the third party applications too. 4) When I press COMMAND + DELETE to delete something on my desktop, even if it is just one item, it takes forever to delete. 5) It takes forever to clear my trash as well, especially when it comes to securely emptying my trash. That one takes such a long time that I have to cancel halfway. 6) The overall system does not feel faster than Leopard for me. Safari loads much faster at times, but then it slows down to a crawl as I continue to use it. 7) Pages crashes on me rather often. 8) I watched a video in full screen on Quicktime X and it restarted my Macbook. 9) Most applications seem to load slower than before. 10) Photobooth will load, and then the image will hang for about a minute or so before I can start to properly take my photographs. 11) Sending files from one Mac to the other throw a created network takes longer than when I transfer via a thumb drive. 12) Dragging pictures out from iPhoto onto the desktop takes about half a minute to happen, even if it is just one photograph. 13) Graphical issues when I am opening a new tab. The entire screen will screw up. 14) The same graphical issues when I am switching from one space to the other. The system becomes sluggish and the graphics screw up as well. 15) High heat when I am using flash player, causing the fan to spin out of control. 16) Audio and video synching issues when I record a video with Quicktime X. 17) Dragging a picture from Safari to the dock, bringing me to Pages in order to paste it into a document doesn't work like they demonstrated in the keynote. When it takes me to the space with Pages, I will let go of my mouse thinking that the picture will stick onto the blank page. Instead, it brings me back to Safari. I am not entirely impressed by Snow Leopard. =( [/QUOTE]
