Apple Seeds Third Beta of macOS 13 Ventura to Developers

A flying toaster screensaver.

Joking aside, this is a killer idea. I wish Apple was still full of whimsy and honored it's heritage this way.

Safari still hangs when I try to close it, although it eventually closes, unlike before.

You look at activity monitor you can see Safari 16.0 build seems to not release web cache as it should, so its using too much memory. They had the caching working in MacOS 12.5 beta Safari 15.6 builds, just need to fix this.

If your were backed up to external ASR volumes, its as simple as having a DFU restore done back to Monterey.

Revive or restore a Mac with Apple silicon
Revive or restore an Intel-based Mac

Usually if you don't know how to do this process you make a store appointment. Yes a DFU restore is a factory reset wipe all data. Use Migration Assistant to recover system settings/apps/data from the ASR volumes.

I had a time machine back up, so I was able to restore the files I needed from there. Once I knew how to do it it wasn't that big of a deal. But all of the other ways that were suggested, like "just opt out of the beta and download Monterery and install it", just don't work. The only thing that worked for me was booting to recovery and completely wiping the drive and installing from a USB stick.

They brought back Clarus, which is a good start.

Well dev beta 3 was released July 6th, with updated public beta 3 July 11th. Guess it was too good to be true to hope we see dev beta 4 this week. I guess at the worse we see it by Wed July 27th 😀
