re: Does Apple even test their operating system software before sending it out?

Sierra cause my iMac to become almost unusable also. After talking to apple for a while, we figured out that signing out of iCloud and then back in and not selecting iCloud Drive (I don't use it anyway) it completely fixed everything. Works like it should now. Might want to give that a try.

This fixed it! Thanks much for the advice, saved me trip to the Apple store.

I have a couple of family members who have three different antivirus programs on their computers "just to be safe" and can't understand why they have problems.

And it's not just different applications that are variables, but different versions of different applications. We have a variety of Windows PCs at different states of update and once saw an update that caused web browsing problems with just the right version mix of XP/Norton/IE, you had to have the right version of all 3 to experience the problem. They can only test for so much before they have to rely on user feedback and bug reporting.

Sounds like user error, imo.
