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

Hi Lune,
1. No, it won't change it. Just ensure that you take the necessary steps wrt to your keychain.
2. No, you don't have to reboot every time. You can purchase or update.
3. Only download from Adobe themselves, not from any third party source.
4. Visit this site to check for compatibility with Yosemite.
Have fun,
Leo
