There a super annoying issue with iMessages on Yosemite where the first time you click on the iMessages window, it doesn't gain focus properly (and you can't start typing a message), and the second time you click on it, the entire window changes position by the delta between the top-left corner and the spot where you click the second time.

It makes the whole experience of using iMessages very aggravating. The whole "use OS X for all messages including SMS" thing is one of their key marketing messages, and it's broken on my Macbook and on my iMac.

I logged a bug for it and was told it was a duplicate of another one already in the queue, which was well over a month ago. It seems like something that should be relatively easy to fix. That it hasn't been tells me that there is likely a very large list of bugs in a similar category (or worse), so they just haven't gotten to this one yet.



This doesnt even begin to address the countless ways in which messages on the laptop falls out of sync with the messages on my iphone sitting next to the laptop. Im not even talking about 2 second delays, Im talking about 10-15 minutes of the laptop not getting the message.

Similar annoyances exist with receiving calls on the laptop. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt.

The troubling thing for me is that these arent some esoteric features, these are the features that they choose to highlight so I presume a higher bar for them.
