Apple Seeds Fifth macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 Beta to Developers [Update: Public Beta Available]

by

Apple today seeded the fifth beta of an upcoming macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 update to developers, a week and a half after seeding the fourth beta and a month after releasing the macOS High Sierra 10.13.1 update.

The new macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 beta can be downloaded from the Apple Developer Center or through the Software Update mechanism in the Mac App Store with the proper profile installed.

It's not yet clear what improvements the second major update to macOS High Sierra will bring, but it's likely to include bug fixes and performance improvements for issues that weren't addressed in macOS High Sierra 10.13.1.

No significant new features were discovered in the first four betas of macOS High Sierra 10.13.2, but we'll update this post should notable changes be found in the fifth beta.

The previous update, 10.13.1, introduced fixes for some serious security flaws and brought new emoji to the macOS operating system.

Update: Apple has also released a new beta of macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 for public beta testers.

Sign of the times that a beta update to ATV makes the front page, but beta update to OSX only makes "More MacRumors Stories"

Hopefully it fixes the quick look bug and nvdia performance issues on the older MacBook Pros

Hopefully somebody will have an answer for you, it hasn't happened to me.
Problem solved! Once beta 6 came out, I downloaded and installed that without issue :)

It's probably less because it installed the Recovery Update but not the rest.
That makes sense! Thank you.

I had all kinds of problems with 10.13 as well. But ever since I updated to 10.13.2 beta, all problems went away. Life is good again...
Hurrah! Thanks for that - I was hoping at some point a release would come and sprinkle some magic dust!
