Build 15A282a. Playing around with it, the only differences I've spotted compared to the beta are the added setting to disable pre-release updates in System Preferences > App Store, and the "Beta" suffix gone from version in About This Mac.
build 15A282a installed.....
Can anyone confirm the PB GM Candidate 1 is the same build as the DB GM Candidate 1?
It seems Public Beta = 15A282a, Developer = 15A282b. The one letter difference is probably only there to distinguish the releases.Same here, why are we getting the "a" build instead of the "b" build? I also got a prompt for Feedback Assistant, did we end up getting a beta instead of GM? I did mine through the App Store purchases tab, as I did the public beta and got that email.
I'm still downloading it. Do you recommend creating flash media to install it or just do it from the image file?
Click on 'Version 10.11' in the dialog box. It should change to display the build number in brackets.Where can i see the build number ?
It's not showing in the about this mac.
I am curious as to whether anyone with more expertise than myself considers this build 'good enough' for daily use.
so what if i clean install this GM do i have to DL the final version which apple will release on 30 Sep, also is there any way to make its bootable drive
I have the same problem on my MBP Late 2011. After update 4 it wont boot. I thought that with this installer it would be ok. It started fine one time and after restart its stuck here. Its been 16 minutes now. And I have an ssd
I too see the El Cap GM candidate in the MAS Purchased tab.
Can anyone please confirm if it's safe to DL the GM candidate and upgrade the main system install from Yosemite to El Cap? Yes, no, or should I wait for the official release?
If somebody is interessted: I also downloaded the installer of the Public Beta GM (15A282a) and I noticed 2 differences: 1: The X Icon war grey in PB GM, whereas it was colorful in Developer GM, and the filesize was different: 6.014.089.292 Byte for Public, 6.071.584.835 Byte for Developer, so 55MB difference. There is also a difference in the version of the file: PB 1.7.17 vs DP 1.7.27 . See in the screenshot...
I did not install PB GM, so I can't report on differences after the install...
Adobe Illustrator doesn't work for me with Developer GM (15A282b). Worked for me with DP8 (was broken at the beginning for me with I think: DP2-4 don't remember excactly, worked for the last ones).
Can somebody confirm? Or should I search for the problem at software, not system level?
Also since the update today my incoming Yahoo IMAP for 3 Yahoo accounts doesn't work (SMTP, outgoing works), but I really think, this is just a coincidence and has to do with the yahoo servers... Need to try t Don't think, its a systemlevel thing...
