15.4 was supposed to be my target build to upgrade from Sonoma, but after witnessing the Apple Idiocy debacle, I think I'll skip Sequoia altogether

Humans are odd creatures.

We've always known that Apple was playing the long game with AI integration work, and there was a chance that timelines would be stretched as they pushed forward.

Apple Intelligence hasn't been a failure. I, for one, appreciate that Apple is committed to a great experience, and is taking their time.

The day will come when Apple's implementation is the industry standard, and other companies will want to mimick it. Have patience.

In the meantime, your Mac gives access to all competitor solutions today. Interesting, eh? 😎
 


Apple today released macOS Sequoia 15.4, the fourth major update to the macOS Sequoia operating system that launched in September. macOS Sequoia 15.4 comes two months after the launch of macOS Sequoia 15.3.

Mac users can download the ‌‌macOS Sequoia‌‌ update through the Software Update section of System Settings. It is available for free on all Macs able to run macOS 15.

With macOS 15.4, Apple is bringing Mail Categorization to the Mac. The Mail app features dedicated categories like transactions, updates, and promotions, with important emails organized into a primary section.

Apple News+ subscribers now have access to an Apple News Food section with recipes, food articles, and more. There's a new Sketch style for Image Playground, Memory Movie support in the Photos app for custom slideshows, and new emoji characters.

More information on what's new in macOS Sequoia can be found in our macOS Sequoia roundup.

Let’s hope it fixes Bluetooth disconnection issues with new 16e

Already downloading on my M4 Mac mini but no luck on my M2 MacBook Air... Guess the M4s are getting special treatment 😅
 
MBP M1 Pro already finished installing, but the Mac Mini M4 doesn’t show any available updates yet.. (Germany)
Same, no update here yet for my M4 Mac mini either (Canada), at 2:00 pm EDT / 6:00 pm GMT.
iPhone 12 Pro Max already updated though, and iPad Pro M4 updating now.

EDIT: 14 minutes later, and Mac mini M4 is now downloading.

Does it turn AI rubbish back on? i bet it does if they have AI rubbish in the mail part.
Surly they should realise if people are turning off the AI then they are going to turn it straight back off after the updates, it is not going to make people use it.

As bad as Microsoft pushing their MS account and making it more difficult to get around it, well almost., at least Apple does make it easy to switch off AI rubbish.

Oh yeah, nothing here in the UK yet.
 
This does seem odd. It was released an hour ago? Was it pulled? I have multiple Macs in multiple locations on multiple Internet providers, none of them are finding the update.
