macOS Mojave (10.14) - Bugs and bug fixes

[mriksman]

Is anyone having a bootcamp issue? I am new to bootcamp, but I have a bootcamp partition that I also occasionally use in Parallels, but I noticed today that I can't boot into it. I don't know if it was beta 1 or 2 that messed it up. I couldn't boot it through parallels either, so I removed it from there and added it back and it boots, but if I hold the option key when booting the computer I see the windows 10 partition and the MacOS partition but no matter which I select it boots back into MacOS.

Again, not sure if it was the update that broke my bootcamp, as I don't use it often but I noticed it about an hour ago.


UPDATE: probably wasn't related to the update. I repaired it with first aid in disk utility in repair mode.

This happened to me as well, and I did the same thing to fix it. Thanks for the tip!

Boot to recovery mode with Command-R during boot, open Disk Utility and repair everything you can click on.

Beta 2 ~ Audio (sound) is not working on a MacMini late 2012. At least for me.

VirtualBox is totally broken! VBoxDrv.kext is the cause of the problem. Can't upgrade VirtualBox or open it.

Yup, VirtualBox won't launch from dock, or Applications, but I have previously upgraded macOS, and VirtualBox 5.2.8 was installed. It can be launched through Terminal. Just type VirtualBox and hit enter. However, it won't start any VM

Audio/sound not working for me either all of a sudden. Been on each beta day-of-release. Mid-2015 MBP Retina.

VirtualBox completely inoperable as well. Welp.

Did anyone else get severe, periodic stuttering lag on PB2? I'm not sure if it's the Beta or something else, but I had to go back to High Sierra, and don't have the issue. It got to being a 2-3 second lag every few minutes.

2017 non-TB macbook pro.

try a few things, like: plugging something into the headphone output, then unplugging it. reboot. check sound output in system preferences...

i had to unplug/replug my usb speakers to get them working again with PB2...

Are anyone have issue with Bluetooth on DB 3? In a few minutes after boot it switching to status "bluetooth not available", connected devices (apple keyboard and mouse) stop work. Reset SMC and deleting .plist didn't help me. Macbook Pro early 2015 13".
This is repeating after each boot.

I had that problem to but i went to finder and went to Go to folder and searched /Library/Preferences/ and looked for Bluetooth.plist and deleted and turned off my MacBook Pro and waited for a few minutes and turned it on and it works fine again. I have a Early 2015 MacBook Pro 13"

Anyone else having an issue with having to allow explicit content in iTunes every time it is launched? All my library from Apple Music is greyed out until I do this (Explicit or not).

Finder not dark from an external hard drive

Did you set a custom folder background color for that disk/folder?

For me and many other still is! I fire it with hot corners and use it for dictionary, quick calculator, weather widgets and a currency converter... it's still the fastest way to get the info I need without fiddling with websites or other apps.
I'm sorry if it's not your thing... it keeps being so for many though and I hope it will come back again.
You know, right, you can disable it and forget about it should you like so?

It wasn’t criticizing, I was genuinely surprised it still existed. As I said, it’s been so long since I used it I had forgotten about it.

Has anyone had beachballs ad infinitum when after say a day of uptime, you try to open a hard drive volume in finder? I have to power down the Mac and cold restart...

It helps me before my Macbook go to sleep. After going out of sleep mode, bluetooth goes into status "unavailable".

update: Bluetooth had been worked about 10 minutes and switched to unavailable status.

Public Beta 2

It’s just a revised version of the Developer Beta 3 with a fix for the Feedback assistant. Nothing for public beta users. If nothing released today I’d assume beta 4 will go live next week.

I'm the owner of a 2015 MacBook Pro and on Mojave Beta 2. The most things work well but Siri has some problems. After activating with its symbol the windows appears but nothing happens. Siri don't want to hear me. By clicking the "?" I can see the possible keywords and so on but after this - nothing.
Any idea? On my iMac mid 2015 this works well... View attachment 767645

Same issue on my 2015 MBPr... Public Beta 2.
I guess it's related to the changes with the latest MBPr having Hey Siri with the T2 chip.

I understood Apple stopped all integration with FB or Twitter if this is what your looking for.
