| SoundSource | 5.7.1 | Now works!! |
| Tunnelblick | 6.0beta01 (build 6050) | Fails to open. (version 4 and 5 work) |
- App Cleaner and Uninstaller DOES NOT work. Site says wait for update coming by Sep. They did the same with past MacOS updates. other comment: AppCleaner is working for me after updating to Sequoia, but seems like, just with many other apps, trying to install on a fresh system is failing.
- Audacity 3.5.1 crashes on launch (3.6 cannot be verified)
- Boom 3D will not load its audio driver
- Default Folder X 6.0.7 not working in dialog boxes. Beta 6.1b1 works (available here)
- DisplayMaid - It no longer restores windows positions
- DXO Viewpoint 4 - Will not install. Installer crashes
- Enpass extension doesn't appear to be working. -> confirmed NOK (longtom)
- Garmin Express 7.22.1 cannot connect with background services

- macFUSE < 4.8.0
- Retrospect Backup not working correctly

- Speaker Amp
- Suite Studios
- Textbar - runs but does not see wifi networks
- TinyGrab - V2.5.1 (Author went offline in 2016, so I guess this was expected)
- Topspin 4.3.0
- Virtualization.framework w/ Rosetta (breaks all Rosetta-reliant functionality provided by Virtualization.framework, including Linux VMs in Parallels with Rosetta enabled, as well as running x86-64 Docker containers using
OrbStackor Docker Desktop)- EDIT: OrbStack has updated and fixed this issue, x86-64 containers now run under Rosetta again
- Xnip 2.2.3 - App opens fine but won't recognize key combo to take screenshots
ISSUES
- Adguard is only partly working -you can use it if set as automatic proxy -Sequoia doesn't let you install network extension so it does not work with it. Installs correctly with Beta 2 and Adgurad for Mac 2.14.1.1603
- Microsoft Teams works as messaging, but you cannot share your screen. You can use your web browser to share your screen though.
- Mullvad installed without problems and seems to run OK BUT although I am apparently connected to a secure server in London, BBC iPlayer detects that I am not in the UK. Tried clearing browser cookies and restarting but same problem. Reported to Mullvad devs.
- Proton Drive (It will install and authenticate but cannot pull in the encrypted files). Work around = use web interface. I notified the Proton dev team via their feedback forms
- Sublime Text File save dialog is adding strange unwanted file extensions to saved files.
- Zoom Meeting works well except for:1. I cannot share apps or windows - only sharing my entire desktop works. 2. Every time I join wearing my APP2, I am told I sound like Mickey Mouse. When I leave and rejoin, I sound "normal"
- Davinci Resolve does not yet work properly. Resolve itself will open but cant read the media files (a7s3 files tested). The project saved on macos 15 beta will corrupt the original project file on Sonoma as well.
Please consider the risks before installing developer beta software.
