Apple Launches macOS Sequoia With iPhone Mirroring, Passwords App, Window Tiling Updates and More

Got a bug that keeps my settings stuck with an alert.

I need to agree to the new terms and conditions. Except when I click on the button, it jumps to my profile at the top of the settings window. No new terms shown. Nothing to agree on.

Sounds like it is an old bug for some ...
 
Updated, and for the most part, everything is working as it should, there are no problems with specific apps yet.

The only bug I've come across is background sounds cutting out every time I open or close an app that accesses audio, even indirectly. Like Safari, Podcasts, Apple Music, etc.
 
And now there's a second one ...

" Update your Apple account settings " >> " Continue "

Get a spinning wheel. Then nothing.

Stuck with both these alerts.

I guess I may need to sign out, but then I got to deal with the payment cards, photos, passwords etc again. Sigh.

The window tiling functionality is just another stupid evil design by Apple. It literally wastes space, makes your content less easy to focus on.
Here's hoping companies like Altab fix what Apple just broke. There isn't even an option to turn it off.

It took them a quarter of a century to reinvent the wheel, and the come up with this hexagonal clunky BS?

Oh and also I only now discover that almost all the new major features are blocked in Europe : AI, iPhone mirroring...

Another big drop indeed.

Maybe it is because I haven't gotten used to the tile options but it just seems like a headache at this point. Even if you need to have several windows open it is unnecessarily cumbersome. I play with it some more today.
 
PS:

OK. Two hours later, I finally get a small additional popup with the terms and conditions, to checkmark and agree.
And, I can " update " my account.

Maybe some server queue was a bit overloaded somewhere.

Can you still drag it to the trash to eject? Which is also a completely backwards design.

This is a legacy from the original Macintosh that Apple won't ever let go of.

When Macs had one floppy drive and you needed to copy from one floppy to another, you would eject one floppy and insert another. Both disks were shown as icons on the desktop.

But when you wanted to remove the icon from the desktop, you would drag it to the trash. Very intuitive actually, since everyone understood that manipulation to mean remove and not delete.

Part of the Mac's charm, I suppose, to keep it around.

Finally got it installed. It took about 11 hours to download , prepare, and install! I had to leave it overnight and hope for the best. So far, so good, but wow, that's crazy.

where do you live that it took 11 hours?!?

Oh yes I agree. Especially since for many many years it now turns into an eject icon, so it makes sense.

I was around in those days but using mostly Windows. But I remember the old joke. Around the same time as click Start to shut down.

Computers only make sense after we're exposed to all their little weirdnesses for long enough.

I deeply regret updating my Mac Pro 7,1 to Sequoia last night. Half of my apps are completely frozen, including many of Apple’s own native apps such as Safari. I feel like my whole system is kinda bricked now. BEWARE. DO NOT UPDATE.

Why am I getting downvoted for saying what happened to my Mac when I updated to Sequoia?

Insufferable people.

I'm now seeing weird scrolling behaviours on iOS, iPad OS and MacOS since upgrading. It's no disaster but apps keep scrolling to the top, websites scroll to the top, notes scroll up and down weirdly.

Which version of Paragon NTFS works with macOS Sequoia?
Click to expand...
Version 17 is (finally) working for me. Somewhere between the last beta and RC extensions were broken causing a lot of pop up errors at start up and Paragon NTFS not to work. I also got a lot of errors in recovery mode that even Google couldn't find an explanation for. Couldn't set security settings, couldn't re-install Sequoia. So I wiped the disk and performed a clean install of Sequoia 15.0. Only then Paragon NTFS 17 could be installed and run properly.
 
15.0.1 installed, firewall/network issue still not fixed. In fact they've somehow made it worse:

- The network stack keeps locking up apps that rely on it.
- VPN's don't seem to work properly anymore.
- My NAS server's firewalls are reporting ddos attacks from the MacOS machines when I try to connect to them.
- Finder keeps locking up when trying to move files to the Bin.

Sigh
