Hi Neil and others, I couldn’t agree more. I have just upgraded from Snow Leopard to El Capitan. I had 39,000 photos in iPhoto and I knew where to find every one. Now I am saving to Photos - I can’t find anything. I will sign any petition to bring back SL!!! Regards Marlene Oostryck > On 3 Jun

I don't want to use iCloud but Apple is getting more and more insidiously insistent. I get pestered with messages about updates to iOS but can't work out a safe way of finding out before I download and install what the update will actually do. I feel as if the update has already been downloaded
