After trying to install OS X El Capitan onto my hard drive, I've come across a problem. When it asks me to sign into my Apple ID I do with the correct information. It then says that my username or password is incorrect. I know this is not the case because I have reset my password and tested it by signing into the App Store on my phone. Anyone else have this problem? Any fixes? Thanks.

Hey all,Thought I would pose a question/debate opener,Has anyone found beta 2 of 10.11 really sluggishly slow in comparision to beta 1, I found on my mid-2010 15" (8GB Ram) even the most simple of tasks it finds reason to truggle and beachball me.Even for dev work on it, it struggles so think might be a wipe & time machine back to 10.10.4 as at least that was workable for devving in comparision to this.Was just thinking whats everyone else think??

I installed the 1st beta of El Capitan, and now I cannot update anything via software update, including OS X itself. I just get the "couldn't communicate with a helper application" error. I even reinstalled the OS, and Im still getting it. Anyone have any ideas? I tried manually installing via command line using ""softwareupdate --install --all"but I get:Jul 3 22:16:20 softwareupdate CLI[4500] <Error>: /usr/sbin/softwareupdate: Service connection invalidated!Help?

Hello Guys;I'm trying to use the new geat features with Safari with El Capitan in my Macbook Retina 12", 1.3Ghz. Everything starts fine, but there must be a memory leak somewhere. Just after a few minutes, even with no activity in the browser I can see the safari's memory usage grows to 4 then 5 then 6Gb of RAM.Do you have the same behaviour?Thanks;

Trying to airdrop files from iOS 9 device to Mac with 10.11 Beta 3 installed. I get the notification that the file is being transferred, but the file never appears in the downloads folderanyone else having success with AirDrop??

Hello,I have Notes 4.0 (512) running on OS X 10.11 (15A226f). I cannot create a new note. Using the shortcut cmd+N. And the menu item File > New Note is disabled (grayed). I can only create folders.All my notes are stored on iCloud. I have space available on my iCloud storage plan. Notes sync with iCloud is activated. I restarted my Mac; it did not help.Did anyone encouter that? Is this a feature or a bug? I Google for this and found nothing. I can't remember if it happened right after updating to 15A226f or a while after.Also to note, I had an issue with no free storage available on iCloud. I fixed it by deleting an iOS backup to reclaim 4GB.Thank you!

I've been using 10.11 beta (15A225f) on a late 2011 MacBook Pro. One issue I've run into is that although I can create and delete smart mailboxes, the changes don't stick if I quit and restart Mail.app. I've tried a number of things -- most recently deletingBackupTOC.plistDefaultCountsEnvelope%20IndexEnvelope%20Index-shmEnvelope%20Index-walExternalUpdates.storedataExternalUpdates.storedata-shmExternalUpdates.storedata-walLSMMap2SmartMailboxesLocalProperties.plistfrom ~/Library/Mail/V3/MailData and letting Mail.app rebuild everything, but the problem persists. I can see entires being created in SmartMailboxesLocalProperties.plist when I add something, but that file gets reset when Mail.app is restarted. Any ideas?Thanks!!

Hello guys!Anyone out there with high CPU usage issues by kernel_task when you have two monitors connected by Thunderbolt? CPU usage at 1300%. I have to shut down one monitor.Have tested all the betas and the GM and nothing. In Yosemite works quiet.My setup;MacBookPro 15 Retina 20122.3 Core i716 GB RAM2 monitors LG

Hi, For some reason, dirty shutdown is no longer working for me under 10.12 betaI have a script running that switches of my Mac Pro 5,1 at midnight every day. Since I travel a lot, I can remotely switch on my Mac Pro with an remotely controlled power plug switch off/switch on. Works like charm - until now. Looks like something has changed with 10.12... Anybody has an idea? Is it still working for you?Steps to reproduce:1) shutdown via terminal "shutdown -u now"2) wait until shutdown and a few minutes3) unplug the power plug and replug. Computer should start.Please note: if you do a regular shutdown, and then unplug and re-plug, computer will not start.

on macOS Sierra GM and Xcode 8 GM, I launch Xcode after doing the install over the latest beta, get the Installing Components dialog and press Install, but it never completes.Well, the progress bar is filled out, but the window doesn't go away.Just tried Xcode-beta 6, same issue.Filed as radar 28211205.This has basically bricked this laptop for development, since I can't use Xcode (neither the GM or the previous beta).

I get this errorif I either attempt to install to an empty APFS partition, or if I convert a working HFS+ partition and attempt to reinstall onto it to make it bootable.

After upgrading to 10.13, my 500GB SSD is nearly full. With 10.12 i always had ~200GB free. Looking at AboutThisMac->Storage->Manage, i see "System" using up nearly 300GB. However, looking at my SSD in finder, i cannot see any folders that would sum up to this size.Does anyone notice this as well and is there a workaround?radar://32782835

Since upgrading my iMac to High Sierra Beta I somtimes got the 'Disk not ejected properly' from my Thunderbolt 2 raid (still HFS filesystem).After now connecting my USB 2 external disk to back up after about a minute or two it started to constantly connect and disconnect (Hole list of "Disk not ejected properly" in notifications).Connecting both disk to my Sierra MacBook Pro does not show this behavior. Any idea what is triggering this?

With betas 7 and 8, my kernel extensions install fine, and I get the popup saying that they need to be approved, but the "Allow" button on the "Security & Privacy" panel doesn't do anything.It correctly shows our company name for the software being blocked, but clicking the button does nothing at all.Has anyone else ran into this?

After an update to High Sierra, I'm trying to unlock my volume (disk1s1) but cannot anymore.

I use the Gmail 'unread count' favicon labs option, which updates the favicon to reflect the unread message count in my inbox. It's an essential part of my browsing experience / daily workflow. The icon is correct when the tab is first loaded, but it never updates after that. Chrome and Firefox both implement this feature.
