Apple Seeds Fourth OS X El Capitan 10.11.1 Beta to Developers and Public Beta Testers

The last one of these betas actually fixed some of the serious audio issues, so I'm glad that someone over there is paying a little attention to fixing actual bugs. Now to see if this one breaks anything.....
 
I wish everyone would just stop banging on about emoji support - MacRumours should stop bringing this minor detail in the latest beta news update, and people should stop whining.

The whole thing is ridiculous - there's probably a single guy/gal at Apple who occasionally adds support for the latest Unicode standard (of which emoji are the tiny part) to the system font in OS X / iOS. That's all! Nobody is distracted from any other work, bug-fixes are not affected, and people who work at creating fonts are not the same people fixing bugs in code!

Even though auvaltool was fixed for logic in the last betas I was still having issues with audio units in final cut pro x, but this latest update fixes that no more issues at all. As a bonus native skylake support is added now in beta4
 
Instead of "it is unclear... but...", we now see "it is unknown... but..."

A great improvement. Still room to improve more, but thank you.
 
Low effort comments.

I would bet this point update includes Skylake support. The timing, hot on the heels of the Skylake iMacs, seems a bit too close.


edit: Just saw the previous post. Cool beans. My hackintosh has just taken the next step in its evolution.
 
Good about Skylake, now I can just clone one mac drive to the new mac.
 
After having my macbook pro pseudo-bricked twice during the last few releases I decided being a beta tester is not for me ;)

There was a patch for Microsoft Office 2016 for Mac, this should've solved the problems (at least it did for me).

Microsoft said that the patch didn't address the El Capitan issue. I'm sitting on a copy of Office 2016 for Mac right now and still waiting for the OK to install it haha. Hoping that this 4th beta addresses the issue though...
 
Still nothing for me... I always seem to see the update about 12hrs or more later... not sure if related to this build or not, but all the family devices got jacked up - I got locked out and had to do a password reset - first time since the 80's, and all my email accounts are jacked up. When I try to log into my gmail accounts in mail, it says those paw's are bad too, then hangs when I try to put in the PW... I suspect one of the recent updates jacked up keychain.. Fortunately I can still get in on my phone, but took several hours to just get back into the mac... My daughter is not on the beta release and had the same problem, so I wonder if iCloud is the real problem... hmm. No time to troubleshoot that for apple.

After reading a lot of good things about the refinements, and still not having seen any negative reports about or problems with El Cap, perhaps it's safe to jump from Yosemite soon?

El Capitan has been rock solid and very performant for me. Other than a glitchy Mail badge for one of my IMAP accounts and a highlight problem in Coda, it has actually fixed a few issues that were present in Yosemite.
