[B4] Having all sorts of issues with 3rd party apps that use the menu bar - namely Plex Media Server, LogiOptions+ and iStatMenus so far. None of the apps will function - Plex seems to run but when you hover the mouse over the menu bar icon the beachball appears; iStatMenus simply freezes as soon as you open it; LogiOptions+ opens but won't move beyond the opening splash screen.
I'm assuming it's a global issue with the menu bar. I also noticed that my Login Items, which previously included all 3, is now blank after the update to B4.

Are you using Bartender or another menu bar app? Were you having this issue on B3?
Nope - no 3rd party menu apps like Bartender and everything was fine under B3. Apart from the 3 apps with menu bar extensions listed, wasn't/aren't running any other 3rd party apps. All the built-in OS menu bar functions are fine as well.
EDIT: Okay we're back to normal now after a restart (prior 2x restarts did not fix things). Login items are back and iStatMenus and Plex loaded normally on startup and are running fine now. Must have been a gremlin somewhere or something needed some time post-install of B4 to get itself sorted (restart 3 was a couple of hours after the first 2 attempts).

Anyone else seeing their pinned tabs changing order randomly? Today is the third time I had to rearrange them.
Yeah, Safari. Should have been more clear. I have pinned tabs for Twitter, Mast, Feedly, Facebook and Reddit, and like them to stay ordered. They haven't been.
Hmm sorry to hear that. I never have tried using that feature. Maybe I should as I like tabs in certain orders. LOLYeah, Safari. Should have been more clear. I have pinned tabs for Twitter, Mast, Feedly, Facebook and Reddit, and like them to stay ordered. They haven't been.

This has been a problem throughout the beta period for me.
The same just occurred to me.
I first tried to kill the process and then restarted the computer, but no luck.
Correct You and I might be the first to notice this. I have looked high and low for a hidden hole but no, its missing!
Only way I've discovered to fix it, and that's only temporarily, is to close my laptop while it's unplugged
i always rotate thru open safari windows with command ~
not working in today's (public) beta. i've rebooted. anyone else seeing this?

Starting with beta 3, I had this issue; you need to switch apps and switch back for that shortcut to work properly
hmmm that's not fixing it for me...
EDIT: command ` is not working for me in ANY app; i can't use that command to rotate thru open windows in pages, or logic, or anything. reported it.
are more people experiencing this?

Having a weird one where I can't right click on the desktop - no context menu...and some general Finder weirdness. Nothing stuck or spiking in Activity Monitor.

Yep! It comes back briefly then issue reoccurs.
Looks like it's Mission Control - if you show the desktop using that, you can't interact with it at all. Will report.
I’m a holdout. If you bought a Mac for the first time today you’d barely notice hot corners and the like.
