Q: Is it time to install el capitan. I have yosemite with latest updates and I want to wait until el capitan has been debugged before upgrading. I noticed a major el capitan update dec 8 2015.
Is it time to upgrade from my yosemite 10.10.5 to El Capitan or should I await another update or two?
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5), iPhone 5s, ios 9.2

El Capitan: I upgraded a mid 2009 MacBook Pro about 2 months ago and have had problems since then. I usually wait a long time to upgrade to new OS but this is my wife's notebook and not as critical as the machine I use for work so I upgraded earlier against my longstanding rule to wait. Now I remember why I waited. I have spent many hours trying fixes but nothing has worked so far. I had hopes that update version 10.11.2 might fix the problems but to no avail. I will probably go back to last backup with Yosemite. Some people have had success with El Capitan but I have seen a lot of info on problems with this update online in my research for a fix to the MacBook Pro. If your computer critical to you I would suggest waiting a while to update.
iOS 9.2: I installed on iPhone 5s and have no problems that I know of.
