I still had there same issue with CCC snap shots failing to create the system volume/preboot volume. Apple changed the way the bless utility works with APFS replication.

Still running into that odd 16" charger detected but get this icon, rather then normal lightning battery icon when connected.

That’s because it’s paused. It’s by design

6900XT performance still way down on GB. Maybe it was performing too well. :rolleyes:
Mine is performing great but it's not connected to a screen. It is only being used, coupled also with a 6800XT, for Agisoft Metashape raw processing. The combined performance of these two it's outstanding for this purpose. They are both used with Razer core X gpu boxes connected to an 2019 MacBook pro 16" Intel.
 
Safari loads pages pretty quick now! I hope this issue has been finally fixed for good!
Compare this Blu-ray.com listings for Amazon with Safari and say FireFox 97.0.1. It uses a very large number of images.

Both are configured for Private, clear web cache when quitting app, no cookies saved. Notice how safari fails to load all the graphics beyond so many rows as quickly as FireFox. Needs more work.
 


Apple today seeded the fourth beta of an upcoming macOS macOS Monterey 12.3 update to developers for testing purposes, with the new software coming a week after the release of the third macOS Monterey 12.3 beta.

Registered developers can download the beta through the Apple Developer Center and after the appropriate profile is installed, betas will be available through the Software Update mechanism in System Preferences.

macOS Monterey 12.3 is a major update that introduces Universal Control, a feature that Apple first teased at WWDC and then delayed for several months. Universal Control is designed to allow you to use a single mouse/trackpad and keyboard across multiple Macs and iPads (with iPads running iPadOS 15.4).

After updating your devices to macOS 12.3 and iPadOS 15.4, Universal Control works automatically, allowing your Mac's cursor and keyboard to work on the iPad and vice versa. It's simple and intuitive to use.

macOS Monterey 12.3 adds support for updating the AirPods firmware when the earbuds are connected to a Mac, plus it deprecates kernel extensions used by Dropbox and Microsoft OneDrive, and it eliminates Python 2, with Apple instructing developers to use an alternative scripting language like Python 3 going forward.

There are also new emoji characters, including melting face, biting lip, heart hands, bubbles, beans, face with diagonal mouth, palm up hand, eggs, troll, low battery, coral, lotus, and more.

As of 7:11 p.m. Central Time on Tuesday, I'm downloading the public beta. You might want to check to see if it's available for download on your Mac too.

My M1 MBP saw the update and automatically downloaded it, staged the install, and asked me to reboot. I did that and the upgrade failed. Once it had reboot on PB3, Software Update no longer showed PB4 as available.

Did they pull it?
 
I feel so afraid, because more features come in Mac OS, more bugs will come in at same time.
 
Airdrop buggy, personal hotspot working once every new moon and buggy, iCloud sync getting stuck, continuity is a mess, slowness after fast user switching (on M1), battery drain.

With every release the amount of issue just increases. The software side of apple has turned into a joke.

I certainly is, they fix one thing but break ten others in the process.
 
For me, Safari on this beta4, does not load all Youtube video thumbnails.
No issue in other browser.
 
Any news on bug fixes?
I still get lots of annoying glitches with the interface (Like not retaining the default windows sizing I set).

I’m not sure this is a glitch. There’s a number of settings that are essentially locked to a default once you reboot. Stuff like Finder size and Wallpaper on your initial lock/boot screen, as opposed to your Lock Screen after signing in.
 
I'm not seeing any bugs aforementioned above. Lucky me, I guess.

Everything smooth on my end. Command and Shift keys continue to periodically stop working on Universal Control when using Mac keyboard to type on iPad interface (any app).
 
Hope this addresses some of the outstanding issues.
macOS 12.3 beta 4 (21E5222a)

Not fixed, on my side safari is stopping to load the pages correctly every 10 minutes or so.... I need to force close the app and restart to work properly. VERY annoying.[/spoiler]
 
Safari browser on m1pro is nearly unusable. I need to force close and restart several times daily.
Anyone else had the same issue?
 
Go to this URL and scroll fast downward and see if all jpegs display. I been seeing them not all display with beta 4 easily. Try it multiple times. Should be obvious that the latest Safari 15.4 is not ready yet.
Went to the recommended URL 4 times and No issues. All images loaded fast. Scrolling down was normal as well.

Safari (MacOS 12.3 beta seems to have a finite time period to download images otherwise it doesn't load some webpages. Right now I am not seeing it happening. Usually during day it has more issues with this URL.

But if I still go to the largest image size reload and then spin track ball down I can see Safari unable to fully draw the bottommost jpegs as fast as the top ones. Comparably you look at the same URL with Firefox 97.01, reload page, and scroll down fast all those same images show almost no latency with the redraw. It's that much quicker.

Safari should be more optimized, it's slower than Firefox in loading all content on pages with lots of graphics , and that contributes to some webpages failing to appear completely, partially and sometimes barely anything.

Also note I am doing this on a 24" iMac with default resolution.

Tried on my M1 MBA and Safari did great. (Which is not to say it hasn't been persnickety on some other sites, more about buttons not working, when they do on the same sites on Firefox.)

I'm having no issues with any of those images displaying, either. And I even went to a couple of the other past pages at the bottom and had no problem. Everything loaded very quickly.
