I’m not noticing anything different upon my first several minutes here. The same things that dont seem to work still dont. How about you guys?
Got a tip for us?

Mouse didn't work after the first reboot, so I had to shutdown and reboot and the mouse came back. How do they not test this stuff lol?
For me when I initially installed Mojave, my Logitech management prefpane didn't work at all and some of the neat features from the MX Master were not working. But for some reason when I uninstalled it and reinstalled it's working fine for me.
Pretty sure they do, but not every possible combination of hardware and software, thus we have a beta program.
Mouse worked for me.
Like the built in touchpad for a MacBook Pro 2017 is on the "To Do" list lmao...
Combinatorics. If you have any software whatsoever that might impact mouse interception the combination of your hardware and that software or configuration could be the culprit, not your specific device.
Good to hear that's been fixed. Great avatar, by the way. A2 best girl.
Yes! this is a nice improvement.
[doublepost=1529458838][/doublepost]Bootcamp assistant still has white text on a white background in DarkMode. completely unreadable unless you are not in Dark Mode
Spark app doesn’t work now. Neither does the regular Mail app. haha Both load but then lock up. Who needs mail apps anyways!
Nah... just shove it out the door... there are millions of anxious fanboys that will do it for them.
Using the Look Up feature (three-finger tap or force-click) no longer crashes the app as well.
The thing that really annoys me is how spotlight is kinda busted. It wont open applications. Ive been through spotlight settings and it just refuses to open apps
Logins in Safari, such as Macrumors forums login for me, seem to be lost after the beta 2. I have to re-enter creds each time I want to enter the forums. I look around, post, whatever, then quit/relaunch Safari, and login is gone again for MacRumors. I do check the "Keep Logged In" box, but that does not help. Other sites logins are just gone. Saved logins still work in other browsers, such as FireFox.
It seems to be Safari (v12) only, at least for me.

In Beta 1, my FaceTime app would take ages to load and sometimes say there was no camera (Macbook pro). Now on beta2 it still takes ages to open but the camera always works.
Starting this beta, the Calendar app always opens with a window that's too small for me rather than remembering the size it last opened at. Had this bug ages ago in some of the Sierra betas, and it's odd that it's come back.
Maybe a coincidence but TimeMachine marked my backup sparsebundle as corrupt and insisted on doing a new, fresh backup. I kept the old sparsebundle and may go through the hassle of unlocking it, attaching it and running fsck on it.

I made spotlight reindex my ssd and it still wont open apps. I could try a few other things i guess
Same for me. It *finds* the app and nicely opens the directory, usually /Applications, where it resides, but then I have to open it from there. This started in beta 1. I re-indexed the drive (well, I think I did - I added the entire SSD in Spotlight / Privacy then removed it again) to no avail.
Yeah I did that same thing with privacy settings but Im not sure how good of a job that does. Might have to go to terminal. I just find that when i type in spotify it gives me all contextual web bs when all i want is just to open the damned app
Just tried it again and was able to open 3 different apps that were not previously running... Just to confirm, you're talking about doing the CMD+SPACE keys and typing the name of an installed app, correct?
It's worked in both beta 1 and beta 2.
Very strange that it's not working for everyone.
