Apple Seeds Fourth Beta of macOS Ventura 13.5 to Developers

by

Apple today seeded the fourth beta of macOS Ventura 13.5 to developers for testing purposes, with the beta introduced two weeks after the release of the third beta.

Ventura Macs Feature Yellow
Registered developers can download the beta through the Apple Developer Center and after the appropriate profile is installed, with the betas available through the Software Update mechanism in System Settings.

No notable features have been found in macOS 13.5, so it's not yet clear what's included in the update.

With macOS Sonoma now in development and slated for launch this fall, Apple's work on macOS 13 will soon be wrapping up. macOS 13.5 is likely to be one of the final updates to macOS Ventura.

Known Issues ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/macos-release-notes/macos-13_5-release-notes#Known-Issues')

* Startup Security Utility in macOS Recovery may not accept an administrator password after updating. This affects Intel Macs with the Apple T2 Security Chip that have the secure boot policy set to “No Security”. To work around this, boot to macOS Recovery and run the resetpassword command from Terminal. Once the password is changed, you can authenticate with the new password in Startup Security Utility.

Hey buddy, just started using the Send Later feature in Mail on 13.4.1 and every time I set a time it crashes Mail. Crash reports sent.

Do you know if this has been fixed yet in 13.5?

Looks like the future for Windows OS is 100 percent cloud based and a monthly charge to use and access. Windows 12?

I Bet Apple will soon follow also.

It's why they dont seem to care about the Mac Pro anymore.

The future of computer OS's is in the cloud with simple cheap hardware to access and cloud based storage.

I’m ready for the Sonoma public beta at this point…
Best guess is Friday next week (7/7) or early the following week (7/10-7/11). Based on dev beta 3 release 7/6. Backup always before. MacOS 13.5 is very close to a RC.

Given Apple's entire business model has been about selling expensive hardware and letting you have privacy and control of your data that would require a complete upending of their entire business strategy and removal of the differentiator between Apple and others.
