Q: a few questions about Yosemite

I have done a fresh install on an external drive to test it. Went a bit fast and didn't read before hand. (never a good idea), so I am coming to you to ask a few silly questions to which I can't find specific answers.

 

1/ I used my Apple ID (not even realising) to set it up. That password is a bit too complicated for a daily use. Q: if I change that screen login password, would this change my Apple ID password too?

 

2/ I noticed that the filevault button to authorise new software to be installed, is gone. So far only a reboot allows me to use new software such as basic as firefox, chrome etc. Do I really need to reboot every time I want to install a little bit of software not coming from the app store? Or am I missing something.

 

3/ Didn't manage to get flash player working (although) that was before I rebooted, and already uninstalled it as it was jamming it all.

 

4/ does Adobe CC suite works, or do I need an upgrade.

 

Thank you
