No problems at all.
Still getting to know it, but it looks very good so far.
Well worth the cost of the Upgrade !!
The Desktop image is a lot brighter than it was with 10.8.5, getting used to it.
All my Applications opened so far, Commercial ( MS Office, Toast etc) and others, no conflicts.
I now just need to download ( again FREE) iLife including...iPhoto, iMovie, Garageband the Maverick Versions.
Downloading 3GB !
Just need to change my sig image....

I installed it on my iPhone 5 for 2.99 GBP (some reason my pound logo is giving me a hash # shift + 3) and quite complicated to use.
See screenshot

I am very angry with apple and I Demand to get these apps back for free. These apps were with my computer and carried on when I upgraded to mountain lion from OSX Lion
This is probably why it was free.

Perhaps when you downloaded Mavericks, it should have flagged that it should not have installed on your configuration ?
I have tried to use the Mountain Lion version of Mail, it will not load under Mavericks.

I am hoping to try and restore mountain lion on my mac mini
Advice on this would be great so basically I just want to downgrade
Also on my Macbook 2010 (white unibody) it still has the iMovie, iPhoto (all iLife apps) even though I upgraded macbook to mavericks as well.
This is strange!! could it be due to the fact I restored my mac mini to factory, but hence when I got it from Apple store and set it up it had all the iLife (iMovie, iPhoto, garageband etc...) with it except pages etc...
Really need to sort this out, as I am going to create a movie about my Dubai holiday trip and wife wants it sorted
Not happy with Apple!!

I am not paying £25 at the max for both programs
p.s £ pound sign working now, was in US mode
Well Apple is going to to some explaining about this
