[Funny Apple Man]

I know this is a very foolish question but how does one get to that screen, I go to about this Mac on the top left but I cant get find the update page

You have go to System Settings > General (on the left list of settings) > Software Update.

Will the next dev betas be released on a 1 week schedule now?

 

[Realityck]

The restart after preparation seems faster.

Will the next dev betas be released on a 1 week schedule now?

Likely 2 weeks if I had to guess. This beta 2 was 2 weeks after WWDC.

Not until beta 4/5.

The 2 last minutes were slow, but preparing now

Can’t update to beta 2 as it says it needs 18.5 GB of free space but I have 60 GB. Tried rebooting and shutting down too.

How's the stability been with the first beta?

Notification center would hang very frequently on my M1 Air. Other than that, I have seen no big issues (but I also didn't install it on my main machine, so it only got light use).

Beta seed articles are tiresome...I wish they were sidelined.

Never occur, because of the occasional embedded discoveries we make as we go along.

I only want to know if outlook now views correctly?

This issue seems to be fixed. So far working for me

This OS version seems incredibly responsive on my M1 iMac. It flies like the wind!

Still waiting for anything to show up on my end...

Edit: Scratch that. I understand now -- there's one level up from this menu. You have to actually go through Preferences and not through the usual About menu. Thanks!

 

[MacHiavelli]

Changes to TextKit 2 in TextEdit and elsewhere? More CSS and Markdown, hopefully. A stake through the heart of long-time deprecated RTF?

It's good to bring prominence to forthcoming software upgrades. You get feedback here on how the betas are progressing & what issues might be persistent.

Looking forward to testing Nfuse and beamer. Both those apps did not function on Beta 1.

 

[srbNYC]

Does anyone else find that search in Mail doesn't yield folder/mailbox names? In Monterey, I could search for a folder by name.

Had this with beta 1, and still now. Reported.

It appears to have fixed it.

I, too, had lots of hangs on Notification Center. I made sure to send a bug report.

So far killed the voice dictation Ava is different ….sucks last OS was the best voice, sounded less like a robot.

likely the 5 voice set will be added to in the next months.

I was hoping they already removed System Settings and brought System Preferences back, but I guess it’s too early for that.

Well I bet my money on the old System Preferences' interface not coming back.
After some time I got used to it and I kinda like Setting.

The only issue I had with beta 1 (apart from issues with the new mail features such as "follow-up") was Cisco AnyConnect. My laptop would reboot around a minute after booting up until I uninstalled it. I'll try it again once I've got beta 2 installed and stable.
