Finder iCloud drive weird behavior or taking forever to load up and show up in finder columns on the right side. Tells me sometimes either when I do upgrade to latest betas or restart the computer that I "need to enable iDrive" when it is been enabled always. Have to log out and then log back in to make it show. Also, Finder is slow and behaves just weird at times more beach balls than ever in any previous Os's ? SideCar only worked in the first Beta, now it doesn't even show up in the Preferences Panel and even if I connect my new iPad with a cable still doesn't work?
 
Well, I have to say that this version is MUCH better.

My MBP 15" 2017 is stable, the HD's performance is OK and after cleaning all the caches the free space is almost the same as on Mojave. There are still some strange behaviours affecting the Podcasts, Music and Apple TV apps. I would like to see all the Adobe CC apps matching the dark/light mode.

Safari Extensions are working: 1Blocker and Focus for YouTube (I hate breaking news).

Apple really worked a lot.

What is the System Preferences Bug?
Click to expand...
The bug is some selections not being selectable by mouse click, instead needing to be selected then confirmed by Return button, and sometimes not working at all....the only way to get out is to Force Quit from System Preferences.
 
VMWARE FUSION 11.1 still doesnt work, fresh isntall, of OS and VMWARE 11.1 and latest Windows 10 Oreview from Fast rins, the mouse and keyboard do not work that comes with IMAC via bluetooth, you need regular wired mosue and keyboard to use Windows 10 or even nay Linus fistro sich a Kununtu 19.10........ so this bug gets resolved with beta 7 or fusion 11.2 released for this issues to go away
 
anyone else notice that iCloud uploads get stuck? Since upgrading to the latest beta, my iCloud Drive in finder shows it's uploading 547.9mb of 547.9mb. and shows uploading 0 items.

This has been going on since yesterday. (I had the computer on all night and same issue, as I wanted to be sure the upload went thru properly).

For what it's worth, Parallels 15 works perfectly.

yes they recently updated it and it works great i herd, except i have PRO license for my software, guess i just have to wait for them to fix it. no big deal
[doublepost=1566339123][/doublepost]also yes the Icloud upload does get stuck, i notices it's always trying to uplaod some crap in my finder, i see the round clock all the time or the circle, im sure they will fix it soon..... if you actually browse into the icloud via finder where does files are uploading, rename and rename them back to what they shouldl be seems to reupload them and fix the issue..... it's strange but worked for me for some files

try logging out of Iclud and back into in you IMAC, sign off and reboot and sign back in and see what it does, also browse into your folder see what files it's trying to upload
 
I'm having an issue on my 2019 8 Core 15" MBP.

Firstly the system just feels sluggish. More perception than scientific proof. But in general everything seems to have slowed down since Beta 5.

Also every time I restart (as in log out, shut down and then reboot) on logging in iMessage opens up. I've checked login items and it's not there.

When I bought this machine I set it up as a brand new computer as all my Docs are in the cloud and I downloaded all the apps fresh from the App Store or direct website.

I'm pretty sure this is a VERY long-standing issue with Netflix + Firefox in particular.

Exactly what I have been experiencing....I thought this problem was something broken on my system - glad I'm not alone! I have reported it twice, so hopefully resolved soon.

Probably not a bug, but the removal of the 'Find my Friends' widget is infuriating. Also missing from iOS 13 -_-. I've reported it as a missing feature but my big reports (for MacOS + iOS) are just sitting at open.

Most people's bug reports are just sitting at open, including one of mine that affected hundreds of people (thousands if you believe the Bugzilla crash report stats - yes, the Firefox issue) and Apple announced, and implemented, a fix for. I did them a favour and closed it, but it shows they're not really looking at them.

In all the years I've taken part in betas I've not known one where they've completely ignored so many Feedback requests. In one case, they closed one of mine (which is also affecting quite a few people) with "can't diagnose". During the Mojave beta I was being asked for more information on issues like that.

Either Apple are getting way more Feedbacks than usual, or their dev team working on the betas is much smaller than previously. Based on the fact we're at the 6th and 8th betas (MacOS, iOS respectively) and core apps still don't work well (Photos, iMessage on MacOS, Mail on iOS) I suspect a combination of both :) The good thing, as far as I'm concerned, is that I have faith that Apple won't release these to the public with their own apps not working. Fingers crossed.
