Who are you talking to? This is a beta. If you have a problem, use the Feedback app installed in the Dock and send you complaint to Apple.

It's kind of amazing the things they can break in such minor updates. o_O
It's a minor update to a major BETA! Things are SUPPOSED to be broken. If you run a beta OS, it's your job to find the bugs and report them.
 
Glad to see emoji development continues apace .... shame still can't use it on fusion drives however
 
You can't it as OTA update you need to get it from your developer account and do a full install
 



Apple today seeded the third beta of an upcoming macOS High Sierra update to developers, a little over a week after releasing the second macOS High Sierra 10.13.1 beta and nearly a month after releasing the new High Sierra operating system to the public.

The third macOS High Sierra 10.13.1 beta can be downloaded from the Apple Developer Center or through the Software Update mechanism in the Mac App Store with the proper profile installed.

macOS High Sierra 10.13.1 appears to focus on bug fixes, performance improvements, security enhancements, and other under-the-hood changes, but it also introduces a range of new Unicode 10 emoji like crazy face, pie, pretzel, t-rex, vampire, exploding head, face vomiting, shushing face, love you gesture, brain, scarf, zebra, giraffe, fortune cookie, pie, hedgehog, and more.

The new emoji are also available in iOS 11.1 and watchOS 4.1.

macOS High Sierra is a major update that introduces APFS, a new more modern file system, HEIF and HEVC photo and video encoding improvements for smaller file sizes without compromising quality, Metal 2, and several new features for Safari, like autoplay blocking for videos and Intelligent Tracking Prevention to better protect user privacy.

For more on what's new in macOS High Sierra, make sure to check out our macOS High Sierra roundup.

[doublepost=1508326205][/doublepost]Updated my MacBook Pro to HS and no external HD was recognized . Find out that I have to reformat everything to APFS. (returned back to Sierra via TM)
Hopefully Apple will make patch for that otherwise the OS X is useless for me. Its kind of strange to ask a client to reformat his HD in order to work with him !!!!!

I'm having a lot of trouble with external monitors and crashes while the computer is on sleep mode. Reinstalled twice, problems persist. MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) / Thunderbolt Display / High Sierra 10.13

Same. High Sierra runs great until I start using external monitors. The UI goes weird and the OS eventually crashes. After rebooting it works fine.
 
yes the problems with my 2xLG 5K and High Sierra have both been very frustrating...

fingers crossed they are fixed -

FCPX 10.3.4 bug - crashing if MBP in clamshell, fine if not... massive bug and known, it is all over FCP apple forums... reported it and done official FCP feedback... there is a fiddly work around...

Sleep problem - most of times if MBP in clamshell and left to sleep with 2xLG 5K then it crashes... I have reported this every time... seems no work around...
 
The installer OS is version 13.1.03 called install macOS Beta 3

might not be. Here the release notes :

Notes and Known Issues

Foundation

Known Issues

• ClientsofNSURLSessionStreamTaskthatuseanon-secureconnectionfailtoconnect when an error occurs during PAC file evaluation and the system is configured for either Web Proxy Auto Discovery (WPAD) or Proxy Automatic Configuration (PAC). A PAC evaluation failure can occur when the PAC file contains invalid JavaScript or the HTTP host serving the PAC file is unreachable. (33609198)

Workaround: Use startSecureConnection to establish a secure connection. Safari

Known Issues

• Some webmail clients don't load correctly. (34826998)

Vision

Known Issues

• VNFaceLandmarkRegion2D is currently unavailable in Swift. (33191123)
• Facial landmarks identified by the Vision framework may flicker in temporal use cases,

such as video. (32406440)


I always find it amusing that the release notes never mention the real problems that most users actually report. The fact is there are some very serious basic issues in High Sierra that have nothing to do with these silly release notes. But.. whatever... (maybe they have a new roll eyes emoji)

Does it fix the sleep issue most people are having on their MacBooks??? If it doesn't then its not worth upgrading.
I have had no sleep issues on my 2011 MacBook Pro 17" and my 2017 MacBook Pro 15" since macOS 10.13 GM. During the 10.13 betas the 2011 MacBook had trouble waking from sleep but that was resolved with the GM release. Flawless performance here on both machines. 10.13.1 Beta 3 definitely feels more optimized and speedy on both machines.
 
Users experiencing problems that other users are not experiencing:

• Clear the PRAM
• Reset SMC
• Boot to the Recovery Partition and run Disk Utility on your macOS volumes.

If the above doesn't help, consider backing up and doing a clean installation.

I have noticed that running Disk utility and then clearing the PRAM before a macOS upgrade may help prevent some problems.

With 10.13.1 Beta 3? I just tested your issue on both Safari and Safari Technology Review under 10.13.1 Beta 3 and can not replicate your freeze. In my case behavior is working as expected. Perhaps it time to do some maintenance on your Safari. Probably related to some gunk obtained through some nefarious websites.

"format everything to APFS"? I don't think so! I'm running macOS 10.13.1 Beta 3 on a 2011 MacBook Pro 17" and a 2017 MacBook Pro 15" with absolutely no problems recognizing any type of formatting (Mac OS Extended, FAT32, etc) on an external drive. In case I use traditional hard drives in USB enclosures, SSD drives in enclosures and a wide variety of external flash drives. No problems on either laptop. Perhaps you have some funky enclosures or cables causing the issue.

Any word of an Airplay update? Just got a 4k Apple TV and I have a MacBook Air - just will not connect with High Sierra. iOS 11 from iPhone works fine. Weird.
 
Hopefully, this beta includes the WPA KRACK vulnerability patches. All my other wireless network gear and clients have been patched.
That should have already been included in previous betas. Supposedly all the current betas (Mac, iOS and TV) have that patched already.

I've had zero issues with all my externals. And APFS is 'not' recommended for externals. Time Machine will only support HFS+ still (as the backup drive). I've had multiple instances through out betas where after I install a new update the system comes up for the first time and says it cant read my externals. All I have to do is power them off, then back on and they are fine.
 
3 beta deep and it's GM already?

Welcome to the new Apple where beta release are really alpha release and GM releases are really beta.
[doublepost=1508341759][/doublepost]
It would be nice if these articles could move to the respective Mac blogs and iOS blogs. I mean, new betas come every week these days, and the lack of detailed release notes means the articles are very generic for front page content.

Yep, nothing really changes, but it gets the fan boys and girls to talk and that is marketing's job.
