Forgive the question, but why did you upgrade before taking the time to find out what the impact would be on the applications that you depend on? Always, ALWAYS check before upgrading.

SOMEONE has to update to discover the issues. He did it for YOU, man!
And for Johnny. He did it for Johnny!

Sure. Using iTunes and iBooks, as nature intended. Comply. Resistance is futile.

A no use telling me to use itunes and ibooks, as that is what began the rot - they stopped talking to each other - so I went to Marvin - then lost him too...now Marvin is back, but not talking to itunes. Please allow a non-computer literate person to do some things backwards..like updating because the darn thing tells me to!

I think you should go to an Apple Store. They should be able to help you at least with the itunes problem.

I'm updated now to the latest version of iOS8 on all of my devices and Yosemite on my Mac. I also finally made the decision to turn on iCloud Drive. So far things are working smoothly. I really like Yosemite and the continuity handoff features are great.

My only complaint is that Safari seems less stable on iOS8 than previous versions. It freezes up or crashes more frequently than I can recall in the past.

Ugh. Some visitor updated my Mom's iPad 2 without asking permission.

Even if it was guaranteed to be a smooth, better performing version, you just don't change ANYTHING involving user experience on an octogenarian's technology without darn good reason!

Fortunately, she hasn't complained of any 'real' problems, just confusion over stuff being different.

You should find out who that visitor is and break every finger of said visitor so said visitor is unable to ever use a touch screen again.

If someone did that to my mother, I'd be pissed and want to hurt that person. Nobody updates my mother's electronics without consulting with me first. I make sure she's updated properly. I won't update her Skype on her laptop because the new UI is lousy.

My first instincts as well. Fortunately for him, she tells me he has apparently fled the country ("returned home" she called it).

Maybe my mom knows more than she's letting on, and this is part of a plot to get us to buy her a new iPad mini....

Wish I could - but I live over 300klm from nearest Apple store and it takes 12 hours there and back by train with connections.
I should add that while not quite an Octogenarian I am sitting on being a Septuagenarian so I consider myself ok for my age to be able to do what I do with my computer...but no - will never be able to understand programming language.
