Sadly, I just got a beachball again (post-Firefox update) 🙁

Since 14.6 my bluetooth is mostly super laggy with brief moments of smooth running. The magic mouse is unusable. I have re-paired, run the Onyx maintenance but nothing seems to fix it. I am now running a nasty USB mouse. Nice one Apple. Please fix this.

No issue with my Logitech Bluetooth mouse after upgrading to 14.6, 2019 i9 intel MBP

I can't use Chinese or Japanese IME, what can I do?

So far I have been ok but I will see if that continues.

Well I got the dreaded beachball today.....so it doesn't appear to be fixed....I updated from 14.6 to 14.6.1 late yesterday.

I dumped Firefox and went back to Chrome yesterday. No beachball behavior so far. Could be yet another Firefox misfire/bug instead of Apple dev issue 😉

14.6.1 updated & new bug: unable to / no longer will cast/airplay from intel iMac to Roku tv

TBH could have happened from a previous 14.4 & newer update but just discovered this one on 14.6.1 when attempting again. (after multiple restarts, troubleshooting, etc. just won't work anymore.

also: all browsers continue to have glitches.

I just upgraded to 14.6.1 in a 2019 MacPro and my drive disappearing issues from the earlier Sonoma have appearently stopped for the moment. Not holding my breath tho.

I'm using 2014 mid MacBook Pro 13 retina. I was not happy with old safari and with assist of the "open legacy boot loader" I've upgraded it to Sonoma 14.6, and it was working great for couple of days. I was satisfied but somehow I decided to upgrade to 14.6.1 from macOS system. and of course that was a Terrible choice 🙁
the system was crashing after login with a broken graphic screen. I tried some solutions but didn't succeed. the boot loader (includes Sonoma 14.6) that compiled with open legacy boot loader does not work anymore cause of apple's policy which does not allow install older system.

after that, I open safe mode, backed up my files to usb, made a factory reset and deleted the harddisk.
then reboot with cmd + r keys. macOS downloaded from net, fresh install started and welcome screen appeared.
and version "maverick" appeared to start installing procedure. but, can't continue that cause maverick does not supported os on my MacBook.

After that, I downloaded Big Sur installer on my other Mac mini. then prepared a 64gb usb stick installer. Booted MacBook with "opt" key. Plugged the stick to MacBook. Viola! Big Sur installer appeared!

Sorry, I can't explained every step detailed. But I hope this experience may help to someone.

Ever since 'upgrading' to 14.6.1, a couple of problems:

A lot of the time, trying to wake up the machine, I end up having to login again as the bloody thing doesn't wake up even after tapping the keyboard a lot of times;
I keep getting the Message 'Update available' when it's uptodate

I also have this: I keep getting the Message 'Update available' when it's uptodate. hope next update will fix this

This is really beginning to piss me off! When is Apple going to fix this?
