All of the iOS and iPadOS updates released today deliver security fixes that were first made available in the iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 betas, according to an Apple support document, which provides more specific details. Likewise, macOS 26.6.2 delivers security fixes that were first made available in the macOS Golden Gate 27 beta.

Apple says visionOS 26.6.1 security fix details are coming soon.

Be aware that iOS 26.6.1, iPadOS 26.6.1, and macOS 26.6.2 have new build numbers compared to the Release Candidate versions that were seeded last week.

i put the beta builds here: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-releases-macos-golden-gate-beta-6.2487028/post-34728977

don't really like it when they do betas and public releases on same day.

1. it is confusing
2. too much to download in 1 day (for example 2 tahoe's)

for macOS Tahoe 26.6.2 build 25G83 here is the ipsw and full installer

I bypassed Ternus and went directly to Tim Apple. He said connect to WiFi if the update is failing on cellular.
Thanks! And thank Tim when he gets out his spin class. I can't believe I never thought to try the iOS update on WiFi, especially since iPadOS on WiFi updated to 26.6.1 immediately.
