Apple Releases Third macOS Sonoma 14.6 Public Beta

[MacRumors]

Apple today seeded the third beta of an upcoming macOS 14.6 update to public beta testers, allowing non-developers to test the software ahead of its launch. Today's public beta comes a week after Apple released the second public beta.

Beta testers can opt-in through the Software Update section of the System Settings app. Under Beta updates, simply toggle on the Sonoma Public Beta. Note that you must sign up to participate on Apple's beta testing website.

No new features have been found in the macOS Sonoma 14.6 developer betas, so it is not clear what might be included. With Apple now working on macOS Sequoia, development on macOS Sonoma is beginning to wrap up so it's likely a bug fix update.

I wouldn't expect any new features at this point, not after the next operating system has been announced. These updates are to keep the existing codebase in sync with what's coming next. Branch-based development. This helps to keep the gap as tight as possible. Bug fixes get applied to both current and next-gen, for example.

Knock on wood, but after my Erase contents and settings and starting new with no TM migration. It's all running smooth! So glad I decided to fully embraced iCloud sync. Everything just popped right backup. I redownloaded all my Apps from App Store or Directly from Developers. All running smooth since May when I did that.
