Apple has released the third public beta of macOS Sonoma 14.5 to public beta testers. The update comes a week after the second public beta and a day after the beta was seeded to developers. Beta testers can opt-in through the Software Update section of the System Settings app. Under Beta updates, simply toggle on the Sonoma Public Beta. Note that you must sign up to participate on Apple’s beta testing website. There have been no new features found in the macOS Sonoma 14.5 developer betas so far, and Apple listed no additions in its release notes. It is likely that the update focuses on bug fixes and other small under-the-hood improvements. To install the public beta, simply follow these steps: 1. Back up your Mac using Time Machine or another method. 2. Make sure your Mac is compatible with macOS Sonoma 14.5. 3. Visit Apple’s beta testing website and sign up for the program. 4. Once you have signed up, you will be able to download the macOS Sonoma 14.5 public beta from the Software Update section of the System Settings app. 5. Once the update has been downloaded, follow the on-screen instructions to install it. Please note that beta software is not as stable as final software and may contain bugs. It is not recommended to install beta software on your primary device. If you do experience any issues with the public beta, you can report them to Apple through the Feedback Assistant app.
