You mentioned you "test Apple betas"... What do you test them for? Just curious.

Very cool! Always interesting stuff to work with.

Same issue here, shame that it's such a hassle to downgrade back to 15.3.

Just in general, to everyone in this thread - Betas of any software should only be used for testing. If the system/software/usage is important then it probably shouldn't have a beta OS or beta software on it.

Apple Time Machine is built-in to macOS & free as long as you have suitable external storage available. With Time Machine it's relatively painless to make a system backup before testing any beta software and easy to restore if there are any issues.

In my case, I have many different systems and only install betas on systems that are not so important & where I have other systems that I can use if the betas do not work out. I reported my testing just so the community & developer could be aware of the issue (maybe other's would notice & avoid the beta OS). I have no expectations that it will be fixed or resolved during the beta OS period.

If the issue is resolved during the OS beta period (by either Apple or MakeMKV developers), I will definitely update this thread & ask that it be marked resolved.

I have time machine backups, but it wants me to completely reinstall 15.3 then use migration assistant to import my data. Not worth IMO I'll just wait for a fix, haha.

Apple Intelligence

Known Issues

After restoring macOS 15.4, some Apple Intelligence features might not be available or you might see "Downloading support…". (145297891)

Workaround: Restarting your device might resolve the issue.

FSKit

New Features

FSKit is now available, enabling delivery of user space file systems as Application Extensions. These file systems support integration with DiskArbitration. (44900760)

Game Controller

Resolved Issues

Fixed: Game controllers might stop responding when accessibility features, such as Voice Over, are enabled. (141497799)

libxml2

Deprecations

The custom allocation API for libxml2 is deprecated starting in macOS Sequoia 15.4, iOS 18.4, tvOS 18.4, visionOS 2.4, and tvOS 18.4. If this API is not used, no changes are required. If this API is currently used, make changes to call malloc() instead of xmlMalloc() or xmlMallocAtomic(); call realloc() instead of xmlRealloc(); call free() instead of xmlFree() and call strdup() instead of xmlMemStrdup(). Stop calling xmlMemSetup(), xmlMemGet(), xmlGcMemSetup() and xmlGcMemGet() to set custom allocation functions. Do not set global variables xmlMalloc, xmlMallocAtomic, xmlRealloc, xmlFree, and xmlMemStrdup. Internally, libxml2 and libxslt will now use the system allocator instead of this API, so do not rely on these libraries using the custom allocation API. (138404994)

Podcasts

New Features

Podcasts Search provides suggestions as you type to help you find what you're looking for. (144169175)

SCSIControllerDriverKit

New Features

Four new API's have been introduced: UserMapBundledParallelTaskCommandAndResponseBuffers, BundledParallelTaskCompletion, UserProcessBundledParallelTasks and UserCompleteBundledParallelTask.

These APIs introduce the concepts of bundled I/Os and shared memory, for parallel task command and response buffers.

The shared memory addresses the RPC copy overhead. Bundled I/O enables the exchange of multiple I/Os in a single API call (in both submission and completion path), instead of handing over one I/O at a time between DriverKit and DriverExtension. This helps mitigate the DriverKit latencies while interacting with DriverExtension.

The IOUserSCSIParallelInterfaceController.iig file explains the concepts of I/O bundling and shared memory for parallel task and response buffers.

If DriverExtension has considerably lower I/O performance compared to the KernelExtension for workloads with high queue depths or very small I/O sizes (i.e. 4KB), try using these new APIs. (134516478)

StoreKit

New Features

New StoreKit APIs support Advanced Commerce API in-app purchases. (118528943)

By using the new purchase option API introductoryOfferEligibility(compactJWS:), you can now set a preference for whether an introductory offer should be redeemed during a purchase. This API requires you to sign a payload on your server in order to either apply the offer (even if the customer is not eligible) or block it. (136152740)

New properties appTransactionID, originalPlatform, and period are now available in AppTransaction , Transaction , Transaction.Offer , and Product.SubscriptionInfo.RenewalInfo . (136395697)


Deprecations

Transaction.currentEntitlement(for:) is now deprecated. This API returns the latest transaction that entitles the user to a product, which may not include transactions originated for family shared subscriptions. Use the Transaction.currentEntitlements(for:) method to get all the transactions that entitle the user to a product. (138320205)

SwiftUI

Resolved Issues

Fixed: A color set by the tint(_:) modifier does not override the tint color of buttons in that view's confirmation dialogs and alerts. (138774306)

Fixed: For apps compiled against iOS 18.4 beta, applying defaultVisibility(.hidden) to customizable toolbar items does not hide the item by default on iOS. (139815290)

Fixed: When NavigationStack or NavigationSplitView content updates, the environment is not invalidated unless properties in the environment have changed. (139855826)


Known Issues

On macOS, .sheet, .alert and .confirmationDialog modals conditionally allow app termination (via the menu item, ⌘Q, Software Update, etc.) in some configurations. (141551605)

Workaround: For macOS 15.4 beta, modals listed above will allow app quit while presented under specific conditions. If you strictly need to block app quit in macOS 15.4 beta, you can temporarily mark the dialog as critical with dialogSeverity, ensure the sheet toolbar has > 1 button (or no buttons with .confirmationAction or cancellationAction placements), or ensure the dialog has > 1 action button in it.

System Calls

New Features

fileport_makeport(2) and fileport_makefd(2) are now APIs with manual pages. (66571768) (FB8270900)

UIWritingToolsCoordinator

Known Issues

In macOS 15.4 beta, NSWritingToolsCoordinatorDelegate method -writingToolsCoordinator:requestsRangeInContextWithIdentifierForPoint:completion: is marked as optional and will not be called. (142681236)

Workaround: When building on macOS 15.4 beta and deploying to macOS 15.2, implement the deprecated NSWritingToolsCoordinatorDelegate method -writingToolsCoordinator:requestsRangeInContextWithIdentifierForPoint:completion:. If you are not deploying earlier than macOS 15.4, do not implement this method.

URLSession

New Features

To enable the new HTTP loading mode, set usesClassicLoadingMode to false on URLSessionConfiguration. The new loading mode will become the default in a future release. (89390075)

Writing Tools

Known Issues

After generating a list, key point, table, or summary in the pop-over, selecting "Replace" results in an error message. (145186545)

Workaround: The generated content can be copied and pasted. User can manually replace the selected text with the generated text.

Here are the release notes for 15.4 if that helps in diagnosing the issue any.

Thanks for posting this... Very thoughtful. Sadly, a lot of Apple's release notes tend to be a "here's SOME of the stuff POs remembered to add to the release notes". We've gotten bitten a few time at work by Apple "forgetting" to point something out that they changed.

Unfortunately, this will require either the dev team or Apple to make a change to correct it.

Like you said earlier, the rollback process is (unnecessarily?) onerous, so I'm just gonna wait.

You seem to have a lot of experience in regards to beta testing with Apple, so I'll ask you.

Do you think sending beta feedback about the issue to Apple will help?

Or because of the grey area of the application, they won't even bother?

The issue is really that we don't have any real detail about the issue. The developers would have to identify the source of the problem (i.e., where the code is failing) in order to file a Feedback Assistant case. Otherwise it'll just get ignored (even with details, it's hard to get a case prioritized/addressed).

Apple dev doesn't care about the nature of the application, just the functionality of the code/APIs/frameworks.

I’m not sure if I’m glad to see it isn’t just me or not.

I completely agree with not installing betas on your primary device. I installed it on my test system exactly to try to find these problems.

I reported it here and to Apple through their Feedback app on the day of the original post in case either party wanted to look into it. So far, nothing from Apple.

I have been using a paid version of Makena for years and love the software. Here’s hoping a new beta or the developer can fix this.

Thanks, all!

The crash in makemkvcon is due to an invalid memory access at address 0x8, likely from a null pointer dereference or memory corruption in Thread 4.

Damn. I was just going to suggest everyone hang on a half hour while I updated.

Apple locked down a LOT of things in 15.4. I'm spending almost as much time in privacy and security settings as I am using apps for the moment.

Apple locked down optical device access somewhere that was open before.
same access problem a few other apps, including VM and translation apps.
