macOS Sierra 10.12.1 Beta 4 Released
Apple has released the fourth beta version of macOS Sierra 10.12.1 to users enrolled in the beta testing programs.
No major new features are expected to be included in Mac OS 10.12.1, as the release is likely to focus on patching bugs and system refinement, hopefully resolving some of the known albeit rare problems with Sierra discussed here.
For users in the developer beta or public beta programs, you can download the macOS Sierra 10.12.1 beta 4 version now from the Mac App Store Updates section now.
Anyone can choose to enroll in the macOS beta program, though typically beta system software releases are best reserved for advanced users to run on their non-primary hardware.
Apple usually goes through several beta releases before unveiling the final version to the public. There is some speculation that the final version of macOS Sierra 10.12.1 will be released near the end of the month, perhaps alongside updated MacBook Pro hardware.
Post Jobs Apple is dying. Apple doesn’t care about the mac or macbook. They just care about iphone/ipad and ios. App store = free money. Users still have “too much control” with macs. Still not required to go through the store. The day I’m required to go through the store is the day Apple is completely dead and worthless.
My search engine is designated, but Sierra sends results from Yahoo. Not what I wanted.
wish they fixed the battery problem. sierra really kill macbook air battery
So much for their beta program. Seems that it’s a major waste of time for all the bugs that macOS Sierra has.
Apple drop the ball once again. This is turning epidemic for them.
i got more storage from this 4th BETA LOVE IT
hopefully this version will have the fix for recognizing a scan via a printer- which has been reported in the communities as a confirmed bug due to this OS.
Beta 4 download has been stuck on grey apple screen for several hours with only a very small amount of download (black line) showing. What do I do now?
same for me did you get a way to resolve that David ?
I hope apple releases new Max’s soon I want a new machine to run Mar OS soerra on.
I think we are all waiting for a new MacBook Pro and Macs! Hopefully they do arrive this month, we’ll see.
