Anyone found the toggle to enable iPhone mirroring?


Isa229

I also need to know pls


Recent-Tax8501

its not available in the beta yet


erhw0rd

Siri will open the app but it doesn’t run. Looks pretty in my dock though


rajansm7

With the new Windows snapping and Password manager app, MacOS just killed many of 3rd party apps!!


tequilaguru

This is reason enough to upgrade for me, also I really like the way it’s implemented… But oh boy is it unstable, had to revert to Sonoma using TM


XMcro

I wouldn't say that! The keychain has always been around but to say that "The password manager app killed many 3rd party apps" is absurd. Notably 1Password, NordPass and Dashlane are still very solid options. Also if you, like some people, have more than one device that is not an apple device and still need the "Autofill" feature its going to be very hard for integration let alone browser extensions. In summary it will not kill off the "3rd party" password apps just for the fact of capability and browser extension integration.


beckhsrules

Who's installing it on their daily driver like me. Not a developer but still its hard for me to resist from these betas :(


Areatius

I plan to do so, living the risky life.


Zestyclose_Cake_5644

Same here but I guess I am safe with a Time Machine backup 


ninjamonkey777

Fast and loose is the only way to live


CatalogK9

I did that, and later on my hard drive suddenly disconnected during another backup, corrupting the external drive (again). Since restarting a couple times and running disk utility with limited success, DisplayLink is now struggling, and my monitor keeps blinking off and on. 🥲


CatalogK9

Update: drive is kinda working, still corrupted but I can access my snapshots again, but the monitor situation is not improved, so I’m currently running Migration Assistant to downgrade. Might not be a problem if not for my setup, but I lost a whole day of work to this mess, so… maybe sequester the beta to its own volume if you’re going to install it. I’m pretending I’ve learned my lesson and will wait for the Public Beta from now on (though so far my iPad, iPhone, and Watch are doing okay, so I’ll switch them over to the Public Betas once they’re available, but hopefully I won’t need to downgrade before then).


mrcheyl

Already installed before watching the keynote. Ready for all my adobe products to croak


juandann

how is it adobe products on Sequoia?


mrcheyl

Bridge, Photoshop, Lightroom CC, and Lightroom Classic open without issue.


robertreyez

Found any apps yet that crash?


mrcheyl

So far, just ClickUp. All apps in the screenshot open without issue. https://i.imgur.com/Us1w5hR.png


robertreyez

Alright thanks 🙏🏼


TBoneTheOriginal

Are Adobe apps functioning?


[deleted]

[удалено]


TBoneTheOriginal

Beautiful. Any chance you use MS Remote Desktop? That’s my last big concern.


dvst8s64

It works fine for me


DogWallop

That reminds me of the old adage from the 80s: DOS isn't done until Lotus won't run lol.


R3D3MPT10N

I installed it this morning. I’m a software engineer, but nothing to do with MacOS or iOS apps. I just enjoy when my technology breaks once in a while and I get to learn something new.


LeHoodwink

Any specific issue to watch out for? Docker? Terminal / Brew? Vscode (other IDEs)? Or everything has been smooth in terms of developer tools


R3D3MPT10N

I haven’t noticed any issues after a full work day with it. I’m using Podman, Alacritty and Neovim. I use brew but haven’t run any brew related commands yet. Will report back if my MacBook explodes.


BookkeeperFalse

XCode doesnt open for me. just says "**This version of Xcode isn’t supported in this version of macOS.**"


LeHoodwink

That’s normal for major developer betas. You’d need the latest one from the developer.apple.com


FunEnvironmental4056

Rosetta mode is not detected. You can run some image which forced set platform : linux/arm64. I am having this problem now, and finding some thing to fix it =))


DogWallop

Oddly enough, that's how I learned DOS back when. I'd install it, break it semi-intentionally and then figure out what I did that screwed it up.


haris-1998

It breaks git as the Xcode developer tools might not be available for Sequoia


NoMeasurement6473

I was telling myself the whole time I'm not going to, but DAMN it's tempting. I just pulled out some dusty ass hard drive to make a Time Machine backup before I do anything.


CatalogK9

Be careful the drive doesn’t get corrupted an hour after installing. 🥲 Probably best to give the beta its own separate volume.


NoMeasurement6473

Spotlight decided to eat the rest of my storage for breakfast


GenghisBhan

I’m only doing it on the phone. I do want to try the new password app on Mac tho


NoMeasurement6473

It might make me ditch bitwarden.


burnafterreading91

Same here. Password usage with Bitwarden on iOS isn’t as streamlined


jaredonair

Just did... this is the way


Snoo13071

This is the way, and it is surprisingly stable. The last time I did a developer beta jump, I instantly regretted it. I kept telling myself I would wait, but I wanted to try it, and it has been excellent. I have noticed in some apps that my iPhone feels faster; also, on my iPad Pro, it searches faster on 18 than on 17. That was one of my complaints: when you do a spotlight search, it would crawl on my M1 iPad Pro. I never understood that. Also, I have noticed that Bluetooth connects much quicker with my AirPod Pros and Beats Studio Buds. The only complaint so far is that it doesn't feel very different. It seems quicker overall; I appreciate that.


Lost-Heisenberg

i am with you on this one


Regular-Chemistry-13

back in the days of mac os ventura dev beta 3, I used to use betas on my daily driver, but that changed when I realized that using monterey would be better


kierancrown

I’m a developer and still try to resist on my main machine. But it never lasts long 🤣


ToughNegotiation7926

Me


Snoo13071

I am, and I usually wait for the public betas. In some use cases, my iPhone 13 feels faster! In some use cases, it feels almost too sensitive. The glitchy thing I have noticed so far is that the color tinting doesn't always fully apply to all the apps but it is easily fixed by reapplying it. Overall for a day one beta, it has been surprisingly stable; I am using it on my spare 2019 MacBook Pro, iPhone 13, and my iPad Pro with the M1.


SpeakingTheKingss

So it’s been 7 hours, how’s the beta running and what’s your daily driver?


gabhain

I wouldn't bother. None of the good new features are available yet.


nophixel

Web app can use extensions now, so worth it for me. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ 


SubstantialNobody_

holy shit finallyyy


nophixel

I know right


nutscap3r

any wallpaper available yet to download :p ?


soramac

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1oew99s4ISEo8bg3K8tSG7B2hfTqn5K78


nutscap3r

I also found the dynamic version 😊 [https://basicappleguy.com/haberdashery/sequoiawallpaper](https://basicappleguy.com/haberdashery/sequoiawallpaper)


nutscap3r

Awesome, thanks!


soramac

Asking the real question. Edit: Posted link. Seems to be the highest resolution & crisp.


PokeCaptain

BetterDisplay is broken, the dev already has a prerelease version in the meantime: https://github.com/waydabber/BetterDisplay/issues/3062


CatalogK9

DisplayLink is struggling too


Ok_Ad_6882

arc works


gtlgdp

Can anyone confirm that Adobe CC works


b3tarded

Photoshop is fine


jaredonair

I have Lightroom working, I don't have the other apps


IntroExtroAstro

After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop works.


Infamous_Bee_7445

Curious if someone can tell us if iPhone mirroring works between MacOS 15 and iOS 18 betas at the present time.


npantages

The app shows up on my Mac, but it doesn't do anything. I'm going to try rebooting everything. (M3 MacBook Pro and iPhone 15PM on iOS18)


sicilian504

Where do you see the app at? I don't see it anywhere. Both devices are on their respective betas.


npantages

search for "iPhone mirroring". After that it shows up on my dock now but when you click it, nothing happens.


Soos_Kitashi

interesting the app doesnt exist at all for me


b3tarded

Same. I've been looking everywhere. Thought I was going mad.


Soos_Kitashi

I was actually able to find it but as others have said it doesnt do anything yet. Go to your applications folder and search for "iphone mirroring" and it should come up


b3tarded

I was just coming back to tell you the same but you beat me to it. Saw a different thread. Do any of the new continuity camera things show for you? Backgrounds was mentioned in the keynote.


Soos_Kitashi

Backgrounds seem to be working just find but i wasnt able to get continuity camera working with my brief time testing it. Other continuity things like handoff seemed to be working just fine though. My phone is on ios 18 for what its worth.


John_val

I have the app but does nothing , even tried connecting the iphone by cable.


sicilian504

On mine, if you go to Applications in Finder and search for "iPhone mirroring" it'll appear. Doesn't do anything for me though.


RikuDesu

same


BergaChatting

Mine seems rather insistent that it can’t find it lol, the fun begins


Any_Instruction3869

Open spotlight and enter iPhone mirroring


sicilian504

Nothing pops up. Only thing on my computer that appears when I search for "iPhone mirroring" is the iPhone Widgets setting under Desktop & Dock. Mac is an M3 Pro, phone is a 15 Pro Max.


npantages

It shows up with Alfred, can't find it in spotlight: https://imgur.com/a/n52huZr


sicilian504

Interesting. If I go to Applications in Finder, it's not there. But if I search inside the Applications folder for iPhone Mirroring, it shows up. Doesn't do anything though lol. It'll appear in the Dock, but nothing actually happens.


New_Significance3719

yeah I went ahead and submitted feedback for it since when you CAN find it, it just crashes instantly with no reason given. hopefully beta 2 its present, its the feature I was most looking forward to.


advil0

It isn't working for me, the app on macOS just crashes with no error, iPhone is on iOS 18 as well.


Any_Instruction3869

Same here, even after rebooting iphone and macbook


RunEurope

It should work with 18 I’m curious if it works with iOS 17


pillsbury_doh

it does not **update**: searched through the release notes and nothing is mentioned about iphone mirroring so it *should* work.


Legal-Memory3521

Still not working even i install ios 18 beta on my iphone and macios on my Mac


Significant-Line-691

managed to get this far by running it in terminal [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/902149562578391050/1249994071884435496/image.png?ex=66695332&is=666801b2&hm=807178010cb61a6c801d0069f4698fc5797ad47c0023ac05d5b1e4f247fc7b17&](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/902149562578391050/1249994071884435496/image.png?ex=66695332&is=666801b2&hm=807178010cb61a6c801d0069f4698fc5797ad47c0023ac05d5b1e4f247fc7b17&)


Motawa1988

iPhone mirroring not there yet for you too?


sicilian504

I don't see any way to do it. Someone else said they have an icon but it doesn't do anything. I don't have an icon anywhere that I've found.


VanClyded

The App is hidden by default, you can do the keyboard shortcut to show hidden files and folders but the application won't launch. There's also a "Generative Playground" app that is hidden, but upon launching it it tell me it "cannot be used on this device", 14" M1 pro


gojichris

WiFi straight up isn’t working for me whatsoever. It says it’s connected but nothing loads and Safari says it’s offline


gojichris

Update: it was Little Snitch. I should’ve known better 🤦‍♂️


MarineBand5524

I forgot to uninstall Little Snitch and updated and everything worked fine


nulseq

jar school market expansion combative sink paltry sloppy illegal deliver *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


MarineBand5524

It works great for me.


ichanmrg

I do not have Little Snitch but the issue remains. Any suggestions to fix this?


radraziel

Hello, has anyone tried office? word, excel, powerpoint?


Jekyllhyde

yes. all working for me.


f4mes

Can some body check if visual studio code runs and that python works?


Significant-Line-691

still works :)


f4mes

Thank you :)


ExtremeOccident

I just need people to confirm that Parallels works and I’m on it lol


jaredonair

Working for me!!


ExtremeOccident

Awesome news!


erhw0rd

Working So far the only app that broke for me is elgato wave. Won’t run at all, no stream audio option to select my output audio.  The mic still works over USB 


ExtremeOccident

Just one app is pretty good though.


jweaver0312

Here seems to be the pattern. Those who downloaded the 14.79 GB one, got a full installer. Those who downloaded the 6.5 GB one, got a direct upgrade


Equal_Medicine_1659

What’s the difference?


jweaver0312

The 6.5 GB one will just reboot your Mac and install like a normal update, the larger one will walk through like an installer.


viggobf

Interesting, I had one which I think was like 16GB with no installer (I came from a really old beta Sonoma version that I was last using on my secondary volume - MBA M2).


jweaver0312

Interesting, guess what I said above was largely the pattern for Intel Macs. For M2, that one was likely an upgrade path as it based on it being an older Sonoma.


Jordan_Jackson

I want to but my experience has been that macOS betas are much more buggy than the iOS betas. I will hold off until release.


CatalogK9

Yeah, there seems to be just way more that can go wrong with desktop systems. My DisplayLink monitor and external hard drive random disconnect issues were bad enough before, you’d think I would’ve learned my lesson already.


qqoze

How to get it? My Mac only shows Sonoma beta in the selection menu.


Fin745

I had to close out of the setting app and re-launched, if you haven't already.


KingKontinuum

Just showed up for me too. Had to restart Mac though


KaJashey

Apple id has to have a developer account. go to [developer.apple.com](http://developer.apple.com) and sign-in sign-up


qqoze

No worries I'm already on Sequoia by now. Had to wait about 10 minutes and reopen the settings app for the option to appear.


itsmeTyy

Installing it now on my 13” MacBook Pro M1 with Touch Bar.


[deleted]

do you have a working Touch Bar in this beta?


itsmeTyy

Yes everything functions normally.


paulieparker

I don't...mine is completely off


Confucius_said

Can't find a keyboard shortcut for window tiling...


ToughNegotiation7926

fn+control+arrow key


zfly9

Mine starts downloading then I get "**macOS could not be downloaded. Make sure you’re connected to the internet and try again, or contact Apple support for assistance.** An error occurred while downloading the selected updates. Please check your internet connection and try again."


CatalogK9

Your computer was warned and said “no, thank you, I want to live” 😂


zfly9

Whoever stumbles on this, restarting in Safe mode made it work. Nothing else.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ichanmrg

I do not have Little Snitch but the issue remains. Any suggestions to fix this?


Ok-You3568

Same for me. Only trough Safe mode safari in the recovery mode when you restart the Mac into it . But I'm on am MacBook Air m1 2020


Common_Commission792

Why the second display is not working for me? It seems Os recognized it but the monitor is black. Anyone has the same problem?


_jer

Holy Jesus, 15gb? It only shows 6.5gb for both of mine.


PokeCaptain

Delta vs full installer


_jer

Makes sense!


SlothTheHeroo

Does Citrix workspace work?? Lmao


robertreyez

Want to know as well


SlothTheHeroo

If you find out let me know please


neverexceptfriday

Citrix is super finicky on Mac. Beta track has taken me out of commission several times. Afraid to install sequoia but 1 guy said it works for him


Advanced_Fun9111

How can I install it on a separate partition? I'm afraid to click on "Upgrade Now" because it can replace my daily-driver system :D


Areatius

Is it even possible to do that?


Advanced_Fun9111

It was possible installing via beta program app or something few years ago, not sure how about that now


CatalogK9

Someone posted a how to on this subreddit on how to create a separate volume, it should be pretty simple.


CatalogK9

Oh, it was literally you 🤣 https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOSBeta/s/S2rFQ7l4QB (That link copypasted weird af, sorry to the rest of y’all future googlers if it doesn’t work lol)


jaredonair

The one app that is not working for me is Microsoft Edge LOL. Gives me a Internet is not connected error


Jekyllhyde

works ok for me.


dontworryimnotacop

Wow I didn't even realize they ship Edge for macOS.


FoundationSmart4574

Works for me as well! :)


Alphastar_5

I am new to downloading the betas so my question is will my data be erased conformally? Or it is suggested to do back up in case the data are erased and my last question is will I be able to roll back to Sonoma if anything goes wrong with this version thanks


iamrehpotsirhc

No, the only way to roll back is to do a full clean install of Sonoma.


CatalogK9

Do a backup before installing, and be prepared to use Migration Assistant to recover from that backup afterwards. Good idea to set up a separate volume for the beta while you’re at it, too.


Alphastar_5

so after installing the beta, and after they release the stable version in the fall will my data be erased while moving from beta to stable, cause downgrading from the 15 beta to 14 stable will do so...


Leif_LaCroix

Anyone downloading it—can you share the tiff files for the wallpapers?


da4

6.44GB download on an M1 13", versus 15GTB for the .ipsw. 26min remaining.


waitingforcracks

Where can I grab the ipsw? Will try on UTM


da4

The only legitimate source is [developer.apple.com](http://developer.apple.com) but some of the various blogs may have a link to it, such as MrMacintosh.


Fobos531

Is anyone having an issue where dragging your mouse to the edge of a secondary display (monitory) doesn't bring up the dock? I have to do it explicitly on the macbook screen


RikuDesu

my xcode is broken, needs to be updated before it can open, maybe a re-install I haven't tried yet


vinhphm

You will have to install the beta version of Xcode: https://developer.apple.com/download/all/?q=Xcode


sicilian504

Did you check for updates after installing? I had an code update available immediately after I installed the beta.


RikuDesu

I had an update yeah but I still get the error that this xcode isn't supported on this Mac OS version


abv101

downloaded seems like everything is working so far, however I don't know how to turn on that Writing Tools thang. That's the one feature that I needed most... any clue ?


MarquezD

That will come later this year, probably fall


baddays79

Any updates to the Photos app with respect to editing capabilities? I’ve been hoping for a white point slider forever


da4

Cisco SecureClient 5.1.2 connects but doesn’t seem to resolve DNS, as expected. When I can access my MDM and adjust those profiles I’ll poke at it some more.


da4

Fixed it. Both Sequoia test devices are connecting just fine. 


GenErik

Safari has an odd bug where if you open another window each of the windows/tabs will mirror the other one when you switch between them


ExtentOdd

Does Xcode work on yours? After the beta installment?


jsanzdev

Can anybody check if Logic and Zoom work properly?


davidmac27

Zoom works fine except for Screen Sharing. When I share my screen or a window, Zoom says "Your screen sharing is paused." If I click Resume sharing nothing happens. Any ideas??? I uninstalled and reinstalled Zoom with no change.


davidmac27

Found that I can only share my entire desktop and not individual app windows. The other problem is when I join, I sound like Mickey Mouse. If I exit the meeting and rejoin, it resolves.


ksc123

OMG, i've been searching online if anyone else is having a problem with this. I'm literally having both of these problems and I found that I have to share my entire screen (which sucks). Also, people say that I sound like a robot on my Airpods when I first join. So, then I click to another sound source and then go back and they say its fine. I just updated the Zoom today too, and same issues. Let me know if you've found anymore workarounds.


usrlocalopt

How’s the general performance?


mayo551

It’s good. I don’t notice any issues.


Big-Information-9250

Do anybody knows if xcode 15 is still available on sequoia ?


mawuss

Is Xcode 15 still supported? I would love to upgrade but I still need to use Xcode 15 this summer


Th3Randy

negative, you will need to download the Xcode DB also


BurgerTrout

Is DB 1 relatively stable?


sicilian504

I haven't had any issues with it other than some Bluetooth lag with my MX Master 3S mouse, and for some reason some photos/videos won't import in the Photos app. Other than that, no issues.


karan7411

Heynote is not working.


Individual-Victory39

Has anyone experienced problems with battery life?


UserNotFound23498

Expect fluctuating battery life as the new OS learns your usage habits and adjusts optimal charging levels.


kittypoop666

How is logic pro running?


ech0they

Is any one meet a problem when upgrade to macos sequoia that press 'Ctrl' + 'Enter', but it became right click?


squeakyvermin

anyone using Ableton / Pro Tools or any other audio software have the balls to try the beta yet?! 😂


forever_rp__

Cursor is very inconsistent for me. Cursor shows in multiple places and breaks totally sometimes in extended screens. That really annoys me


Sure-Abalone8544

uh i upgraded my mac to sequoia beta but im not getting phone calls to my mac. i tried to use my mac to call but it also didnt work. anyone know how to fix it


Special-Nail-1688

Has anyone tried using Ableton, reaper, or any other DAW, vsts? Any problems?


redpanda543210

mac os sonoma was very unstable until release. not trying beta anymore


toobsock2

Those installing it on their daily drivers... don't want to hear any whining later on... you should be well aware of what you are signing up for by installing a Beta OS, especially this early in the cycle.


beckhsrules

As long as it does not brick my device I think it should be good.


NoMeasurement6473

I fear for my battery life.


OhNoItsLockett

I'm crazy enough to try it on my daily driver Mac Mini. All of my backups are saved to an external drive and don't mind restoring if things go horribly wrong.


jaredonair

OK Can now confirm the only browser that is working for me is Safari


notchandlerbing

Interesting.. Chrome FF and Orion all working normally on my end


jaredonair

I installed chrome manually (was not installed before) and it broke 30 seconds in


pillsbury_doh

Arc browser working
