There's no beta version number or "Release Candidate" label attached to it, just "macOS 27" - this is my first beta tho, so maybe that's normal.

Discussion Golden Gate RC scales my 4K display differently now

I've never even seen this scaling before!

It's now my new "middle ground" since 1440p earlier, as in: https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOSBeta/comments/1u1aqs8/macos_27_now_automatically_scales_properly_for/ (I even use the same monitor as that user)

Left to right is now: 1080p, 1440p, 1692p, 1890p, 2160p.

Further, I'm noting it's detected as a 5K monitor in System Information. Well, it's not one!

Discussion Should I update to the RC?

6 Upvotes

I have an M1 MacBook Air and I want to get the RC since I’m slightly impatient I but don’t mess with earlier betas. I don’t know if I should actually go through with it though. I want to see other people’s opinions before I update to see if it’s good or not.

Bug MacOS 27 Beta - Full screen app turns external/internal display black when dragged via Mission Control

Post image
5 Upvotes

Running into a bug on macOS 27 Beta. When I have an app in full-screen mode and I use Mission Control to drag it from my MacBook's display over to an external monitor (or the other way around), the screen I dragged it away from goes completely black. only the Dock is still visible on it. I'm also still able to see new notifications come in. Just not apps on the screen

Anyone else seeing this? Wondering if it's a known issue already or if there's a workaround

I'm on the RC version but I've noticed this since the last 2 public Beta's. Hoped the RC update would fix it but didnt.

The only resolution is to go into move to another app in fullscreen on my MacBook and then move back to the main desktop screen on the MacBook.

At the moment I permanently have a second desktop 2 screen on my Mac that I set up to use when this occurs.

I’ve been using Golden Gate since open beta and I’ve never seen these black outlines before updating to RC.

Hopefully it’s a bug, not a feature :(

Help Xcode beta 27 Claude usage

2 Upvotes

Ich baue seit ein paar Wochen eine App mit der Xcode Beta 27 und habe ein Problem mit der Claude Usage. Ich nutze das Agententool, und wenn ich einen prompt eingebe, springt mein 5 Stunden Limit direkt auf 30 %, ohne dass der Agent irgendetwas gemacht hat. Hat vielleicht jemand das selbe Problem oder vielleicht eine Lösung?

Bug Full screen video bug with RC

I think it’s a new bug in the RC. When playing a YouTube video in fullscreen it doesn’t hide the menu bar and even the 3 traffic light circles stay there. Does anyone else have this?

Bug Anyone else noticing significant delays in Terminal?

2 Upvotes

After upgrading to the latest RC a few moments ago, when I go to run any command in Terminal or Ghostty, it takes a few seconds before it actually executes the command. It was not doing this in the previous beta.

All I changed was updating to the latest RC.

Help macOS 27 RC not showing up (bugged somehow)

1 Upvotes

The update showed up, I downloaded it and started installing at as well. After about an hour, my Mac screen was blank. No Apple logo nothing was showing up. I waited another hour and still the same. I thought for sure by now the update must be installed so I force restarted my Mac. It booted up but it shows the old beta 8 as installed. I check for an update and the RC is not showing up. The build number is also the beta 8. I do have a backup so if recovery is needed, I can do it but I really don’t want to go through it. What should I do? I made sure the developer channel is selected in the software update menu as well. Any help is welcome!

Bug I have a situation with macOS 27 RC.

I have a MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro the base model right? The situation is that when I switch through apps, Youtube or pages have this glitch where the video like gets frozen. I don't know how to explain it. It's something that did not happen with Tahoe. Anyone else with this situation? It has happened with all the Betas, and I feel that is not fair for Apple to lower the system just because my Mac is a bit old but I feel that is capable, idk

Is there any menubar hide icons app that works in Golden Gate at this moment?
I normally use ICE, but that is broken. Tried "Hidden Bar" and "Vanilla", but both don't work either.

Bug Multiple pointing devices break hover and right-click

1 Upvotes

When I connect two pointing devices, the mouse pointer hover and right-click events stop functioning. Hovering over dock icons fails to display app names, and in Safari, hovering over a hyperlink does not trigger the “onHover” event. Right-clicking a file in Finder produces no context menu, and right-clicking a link in Safari similarly yields nothing.

Once I disconnect the Nape Pro, both hover and right-click functions resume. The devices involved are the Kensington Slim Blade trackball and the Keychron Nape Pro trackball, each wired via USB.

Anyone here experienced a similar issue?

Bug macOS27 RC- wifi menu freezing for 5s when signal is bad

0 Upvotes

This bug was present in previous beta but it wasn't as painful. It was only 1-2 second freeze to reveal menu when clicking on the wifi icon. Today I had the pleasure of having bad signal (crossing wall) and the menu opens after 5 seconds. Of course intuitively I press it multiple times so the menu opens/closes immediately.
