macOS Tahoe 26 Developer Beta 9
Apple today provided developers with the ninth beta of macOS Tahoe 26 for testing purposes, with the update coming a week after the eighth beta.
The release notes don’t call out any changes since beta 5.
I mean, that Spotlight search icon isn’t even vertically centered.
It looks to me like this was finally fixed in beta 9. They also made the icon larger.
Going back to the new Settings window for FaceTime in #macOSTahoe again.
Yes, they added SO much text in this view that it scrolls. Yet, since scrollbars auto-hide, you wouldn’t know by just looking at this view.
I wonder if Apple knows about Tab Views. If your pane for a specific tab has too much content, split them into groups inside a tab view.
I’m curious whether any developers have gotten custom controls for macOS Tahoe’s redsigned Control Center to work.
I saw a couple in the very early betas but they disappeared and haven’t reappeared yet.
For Betas 1-6, my toolbar in #AppKit has been working perfectly fine as it has since 2018. But Beta 7, 8, & now 9, it is so broken. Aside from all the other AppKit bugs I have submitted since betas 1-3, things are just getting more and more broken rather than less.
Seems super late in the game to have none of my AppKit reports addressed but also making things even worse this late in the game.
Poor app devs (Apple + 3rd party) are paying the price of this overly complex redesign.
macOS is in a pretty rough state even in beta 9, with lifecycle issues, Dock hangs, Dark Mode rendering issues, and more. This might have to be one of those years where macOS comes in October instead.
Thought this was dirt on my screen, when in reality they’re the ticks of the slider.
This is what Safari 26 Extension Settings looks like with no internet connection.

Mounting an NFS share has been causing a kernel panic for me since at least beta 5 (https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOSBeta/comments/1min61z/tahoe_beta_5_still_panics_when_mounting_an_nfs/)
I actually feel fortunate that Tahoe doesn't support my Mac (Mini 2018), because that means I cannot even be tempted to enter the debacle that Liquid Glass on Mac is going to be (initially?).
