Perhaps the best feature that you should be using in OS X El Capitan is Spotlight Search, which received a handful of improvements this time around.

Spotlight Search is a built-in search tool in OS X that makes it easy to find what you're looking for on your Mac, and now you can use it search for all sorts of information, including weather, sports scores, schedules, etc.

You can also use natural language to search for specific things, such as "emails I ignored from Doug."

    I bought a new Magic Mouse, my old one ceased – the new mouse required a system upgrade from 10.9 xx to 10.11 OK this seems fishy to begin with but I proceeded. After I installed 10.11.1 one email account no longer functions and a second has apparently random emails deleted. This is working with Apple Mail, no excuse for difficulties with other systems, software or producer. It is simply very sloppy.

    El Capitan literally started out with screen instability and advance to missing portions of the screen, followed by freezing and ultimately progressed to a white screen of death. I have since been able to open El Capitan in safe mode but most of my apps are none functional. Unfortunately, I have never used time machine or I could have gone back to my old system (yosimite) which worked perfectly. If El Capitan ever worked properly in its beta form I would be shocked. I tried a fresh reload through utilities but no help. Even in safe mode my 27 inch with a terabit of memory, and 4 G memory has turned into a useless piece of crap. After all I bought it because I was having so much trouble with PC’s and viruses. Did the programmers work for microsoft before going to apple? This is pretty poor form apple. After buying a house full of Apple products? it may be time to go back to Microsoft while apple works on sales instead of programming. My recommendation is don’t download this useless piece of garbage. Apple should be ashamed for releasing an untried, untested, poorly design upgrade. My snow Leopard worked beautifully and all of the upgrades since have left something to be desired.
