I have it fully downloaded, yet when it requires me to enter my password, it is shaking the window as if it's incorrect. I have tried multiple times, I know I entered it right. I even tried changing the password, that didn't work. And I created a second user with Admin privileges, and even that wasn't able to update. Password works for everything else. Just not the update window. How do I fix this?

Once again it is time to hammer the update server.

I am not able to open zoom, slack. My youtube wont play any music/video. Stack overflow is crashing chrome. Do anyone face the same? How to recover from this.

I am facing this for almost a week now.

I have been unable to launch Microsoft 365 & Adobe Create Cloud apps since upgrading to macOS 15. I tried file association correction. No change. Suggestions?

Guys iPhone Mirroring is giving me this message tho I tried restarting in every was possible but its still giving error.

Ever since the last db, the battery drain has been unreal, i have tried to change and turn off whatever background processes i can turn off. it was much better till the last beta.
That entire drain was me just using youtube/ the screen being on(which has been over 51% of the time in this particular instance) and me not using it, just to be clear the standby is perfect but since the last update even basic browsing has been sucking back much faster than before.
No background applications on except whatsapp maybe and the ARC(web browser i use).

Battery health is 100%

Is there any other processes i should stop in the background or something i need to change? or am i just over thinking it and its fine

With 15.1 DB6, I've noticed that Safari has stopped prompting me to use passkeys on websites where I've previously set them up. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? If so, have you found any solutions?

I have a MacBook Pro 13 inches and using a macOS Ventura Public Beta software. I lately noticed that on these two apps I have to reinstall them every time to be able to use them. The thing is that after reinstalling them it creates a shortcut icon called app name + alias. I wanna know how to fix this as is a little bit annoying to install the app every time I need it. Please find attached the screenshots.

1st screenshot: After restarting the Mac the apps icons appears like this and I am not able to run them.

2nd screenshot: Duplicated apps icons after reinstalling them (creating "alias" every time) example: Alias 1, Alias 2, Alias 3, Alias 4, etc.....

Shall you happen to end up with this. Especially if error indicates "The network disk disconnected from your Mac while backing up.

You will need to turn off this:

Once backup is done - get it back on. Hope I helped someone as of today there's no known solution.

In case it takes forever due to failed ones since your last backups, delete local snapshots by:

tmutil listlocalsnapshots /

once you get a list, e.g.

com.apple.TimeMachine.2024-10-13-130519.local
com.apple.TimeMachine.2024-10-13-133758.local
com.apple.TimeMachine.2024-10-13-141429.local

Delete them with:

sudo tmutil deletelocalsnapshots 2024-10-13-130519

Hope it helps if you spent a day in trustration why backups fails for last couple of days.

I did the 15.01 update with my mac pro 16/m2 because I wanted to try out the mirroring function. Since the update the cable light is just blinking in orange but not charging. I tried to reset rmc and all sorts of methods. Now the mac turned off totally. What can I do??

Everything worked out fine yesterday 😱

Ever since updated to 15.1 B5 (tried DB6 as well), ESET will not update. I uninstalled, reinstalled, and it updated. Then after that, no longer updates. Anyone else having this issue?

I've seen some posts of people talking about how macOS 15.1 DB6 broke some apps and features like Safari and Siri, and even having their user data wiped. I'm currently on 15.1 DB5 and it runs well on M3P. What has your experience been with the newest beta? Any issues?

Running M1 iMac (Sequoia 15.1 Public Beta 3). When I click on certain people in the Messages app, it just crashes. A few people , it works fine. Any thoughts? I've tried Safe Mode, force Quitting, repairing permissions, etc - nada. works fine on my iPhone and iPad mini 6 both running beta versions of IOS 18.1. I've tried going into Contacts and clicking on the message button there - crashes Messages again if it is running.

So when I went into settings and clicked on the Apple Intelligence and Siri tab, I was met with a "join waitlist" button. I clicked it just for fun because I was confident that it just wouldn’t work. To my surprise, I got quickly accepted, and everything works just fine.

My phone still displays information that AI is not available in my region, and that should be correct. I have both my devices set to English and region to Poland. Is that a bug or did Apple allow some users to try it?

Also i was on the previous beta version when i joined the waitlist. it still works after updating it to the newest developer beta.

Hi, this beta broke my Mac. I can connect to anything Siri don’t work. I can’t open QuickTime. I can’t open VLC player.!! I can’t play music, I can’t open Siri !! I can’t use safari or any browser. I turn off and on my WiFi and only on my Mac have the same problems… anyone have the same problem??

Update; you should use terminal and end midi process. That work for me

So if I’m currently on 15.1 beta 5, wouldn’t I just get the RC 15.1 whenever it comes out? I thought it would be safe for me to keep going thru 15.1 betas as they release until the RC lol. I’m having major issues with 15.0/.1 RC, and 15.1 beta 5 so I’m debating what to do rn: should I try beta 6 and wait for RC, or restore back to Sonoma? And more importantly, will I be able to update to 15.1 RC without restoring? In another post, someone stated that if you're currently on 15.1 beta, you wouldn't be able to switch back to the official release until 15.2?? I'm confused now lol sorry please excuse the fact that im a noob with Mac betas

I just updated to Public Beta 3 this morning and I found that VPNs seemingly now work with iCloud Continuity (iMessages now works, as does Phone calling from my Mac). Can anyone else confirm that this is the case?

Photos crashed (beach ball) and I had to force quit.

Now while fine-tuning a picture with the Straighten slider, the image cropping suddenly changes orientation (picture remains vertical but cropped as landscape instead of portrait).

I would recommend being careful for now

Has anyone seen this? I'm getting multiple GBs written in a couple of minutes and >100 GBs/day, which is just excessive (coming mostly from kernel_task and launchd). I've tried finding the root cause but it's been really difficult, I'm suspecting that it's related to system logging but haven't found anything concrete yet.
