I am on Sierra Dev Beta 2 and Sierra update 3 won't appear in updates. Already tried restarting mac and restarting Mac App Store a few times

Thanks

When does this usually trickle down into Public Beta 2?

I believe a couple of weeks

Having the same issue

I noticed the news article for "Beta 3" got removed. The downloads page on the Dev Center was updated to reflect Beta 3 for other systems just not macOS. I have a feeling it was just MR trying to get their article out there first without any real data to back it up.

Was the article pulled from the MR homepage?

Probably tomorrow or later this afternoon if it's coming.

Yeah it was

No wonder.

I was ready to smash my Mac.

Same issue happened to me, went to my account and re downloaded the whole OS and am now on beta 3. Really weird stuff.

So you did a clean install to get beta 3 to appear in the App Store?

No, I basically did a clean install using beta 3.

 

[Leinhart_6]

No, I basically did a clean install using beta 3.

Ah I see, thanks for the input. Guess I'll be waiting for this to show up in the App Store since I'm not seeing it yet.

16A240m

that build number is Public Beta 1

 

[Xaositek]

16A240m is the Public Beta 1, not Dev Beta 3

 

[ajay96]

that build number is Public Beta 1

I had that hunch but i wasn't sure about the build number for the beta. I remember the "m"

 

[Leinhart_6]

16A240m is the Public Beta 1, not Dev Beta 3

And here I was thinking it was dev beta 3 lol

Absolutely fascinating when it was downloading it said macOS Sierra Developer Beta...Guess we got to wait then.

 

[ajay96]

Actually 16A238m was public beta 1.

"macOS 10.12 Developer Preview" was gone in my purchases since a while. It's back now and called "macOS Sierra Developer Beta".

So that one is a full installer of Developer Beta 2 now and has the same build number as Public Beta 1?

Edit: Just saw the post above mine. So it's a newer build than both but still beta 2 I think.

They might just have renamed it and gave it a different build number because of that.

 

[gsmornot]

I thought public was 16A238m

I have an updated beta 2 installed thats 16A239m. I downloaded beta 2 again mid last week and this is what I was given.

 

[Erdbeertorte]

I have 16A239j installed, what is developer beta 2.
