macOS 14.2 beta for MacBook Pro m3

[john991]

Anyone able to get 14.2 beta on the new MacBook Pro M3’s?

I selected beta and nothing comes down. Developer beta selected.

Are you running Ventura 13.5? Some of these MacBooks come with Ventura and upgrade to Sonoma is not possible in the usual way.

Did you use your Apple ID? It's necessary to download beta's and you have to register in a website.

Same issue here – can't get the OS to pull down the latest build from both public and developer.

I logged into the developer portal and downloading the ipsw now.

If I remember correctly, you need to apply IPSW using a 2nd machine – you can't directly install the update

It looks like the new M3s can't be upgraded OTA at all. Apple probably needs to turn on the model ID so the update server can send down the right package installer. I'm going to see if it's possible to restore the latest build via Apple Configurator.

I tried using a second computer to restore my new M3pro with the IPSW 14.2 beta file but received this message. Perhaps I am doing something wrong?

Anyone having luck with this?

I’m just waiting for 14.2 beta 2, probably tomorrow it’ll drop.

That's my expectation as well. We're two weeks from the last build, so it should be today.
