macOS Golden Gate Beta 3 Now Available for Developers

[GtrDude]

Two things:
1. please make this be the update where you can resize the Finder window and after a reboot the size and location is still saved. Just like every other app on the computer.
2. make this the update where you bring in real click-through. Not the ctrl+click stuff. Real and actual click-through.
Thank you Apple

When is 27 going to go live for all users? I'm too busy these days to take part in any betas, but I'm definitely excited to see how well they did with Siri AI.

I can say that both she and Alexa have been improving just within the last 6 months or so, and the improvements for both have been very noticeable. Something has been happening under the hood, and it has been good even for the current versions.

Usually late September around the same time Apple releases the next iOS alongside new iPhones.

In case if anyone here is curious what the new wallpaper looks like when applied to the desktop:

In the Wallpaper settings in System Settings, it appears in the Landscape section under the name "Golden Gate Sunset".

Chromium browsers (Brave Browser, Chrome) do not work after updating to beta 3

Anyone else experiencing this or just me?

Works fine on mine.

Beta 2 was a lot buggier for me than the first one which felt like it could almost be a Release Candidate aside from a few small nitpicky bugs. Hopefully 3.0 is better.

Looks like was vpn issue... had to remove and add again and now seem to be fine again

Does anyone have problems with connections to any type of VPN? Mine are broken now

Also no any images in Telegram don't loading. I think there is some common issue with network

The update broke Steam on Crossover and Diablo 4 using Battle.net. Oh well.

Crossover 27 is coming soon anyway. And arm native

[John3432]

Good info. Well done

Couple of things I've noticed:
iPhone Mirroring is (finally) fixed. On B2, it would not connect and would simply "time out"
Battery icon design still hasn't changed (it's awful. You can barley see the percentage because its "crammed" inside the icon)
The speed of switching between desktops in Mission Control has been fixed and is much faster
Full Screen has been fixed. The Dock no longer pops up when you put a window into full screen
The Siri App has been taken away for some reason, and replaced with a simple "trigger Siri AI" app icon like it was before
Spotlight was been removed from the Menu Bar. It's no longer on option to bring it back in either Settings or Control Center. Hopefully, this is just a bug and (possibly) related to the removal of the dedicated Siri app. You can still trigger Spotlight by pressing F4 however.

Mine “minimized” but it seemed to do the genie effect to the middle of the screen, then vanished behind an invisible wall and the app crashed. After that, my toolbar was gone.
