Can you try that again? Can't even understand what you're trying to say here.

I hope it fixes the Bluetooth problem where the keybord Goes crazy when you type

I am not the only one!?
I thought I was going crazy with this. Hoping for a fix after a full year.

From what I understand is that the stocks App Launches after a reboot, he knows how to quit the App but after a reboot it's there again.
(Might be wrong though, Might be Stocks in side Bar.)

Solution is easy...System Preferences>User & Groups>Login Items>remove stocks App

Hope it fixes the iCloud verification finally. Real tired of entering iCloud and Mac passwords AND the code on my iPhone for some reason every other day.

 

[eVasilis]

I sincerely hope that 10.15.3 comes with a much improved music app...

Hey Apple, can you please add Dual Boot support, so that Users can decide whether to launch Mojave OR Catalina @ power on ?

I’m System Preferences, under your account, see if Stocks is set as a Log In item. If it is, uncheck the checkbox next to it.

Sounds like you activated the butterfly effect option.

Mac OS 10.15.2 and iOS 13.3 continuity on receiving calls is all messed up ... I don’t see it as an item they’ve addressed

It doesn't, don't hope for that.

 

[bradhs]

Hahaha. You mean that bloated piece of crap ware- windows? macOS is already way better

Huh?

You sure it’s not downloading and indexing your system like it has to do on a new machine?

Positive.. Mac Mail is jacked up if you have an Exchange or Office 365 account. It causes major CPU usage issues. Basically your computer becomes unusable, especially on battery. Less than 60 minutes of battery on a 1 year old MacBook Pro.

 

[smoking monkey]

And once again is the most important question: Has Apple finally fixed the Mail data loss bug?

See post #2.

 

[eVasilis]

It doesn't, don't hope for that.

Yeah, I was afraid of that.

Totally. Lots of stuff running that I never use. Have to jump through hoops to disable.

A simple startup manager so I can boot “macOS Light”. Would be welcome.

It would be insanely great if Apple devotes some effort to maximize performance and minimize memory consumption. We should not have to rely on Macfanscontrol and Lingon to control fan speed and disable unncessary daemons, it should be builtin, as in Windows.

Use Automator to set up the Terminal commands to kill the processes you do not want, and save the script as an app. Then use your account Settings to run that app each time you reboot. Been doing this for a long time - slightly annoying as you likely will be prompted for your admin pwd, but unless you reboot a lot, it is a very livable situation.

Me too - and that’s where I’ll be until next fall when 10.16 is released. Only then will I upgrade to 10.15.x (where x is whatever the final release of Catalina is). This process has served me well for the last four major OS releases.

[TLNZstudios]

then comes all the yelling and screaming and blood. Jurassik Park. it's a beta. a BETA. get it. not a release you frantic ferks.

 

[BrooklynAl]

What kind of RAM usage are people seeing with 10.15.2?

 

[KoolAid-Drink]

Fingers crossed this sorts out the problems with photos

Was coming here to say that! I don't have a problem with most of Catalina so far, but Photos.app has been extremely buggy and cumbersome in Catalina since the first release. Still is. It's so annoying and makes Photos.app unpleasant and not fun to use. :\

 

[steve333]

think I'm going to install Catalina 10.15.3 once its released to the public

Me too, I'm tired of waiting
