Printer failed with update from Catalina to Big Sur. Removed printer/scanner Canon MG3060 from system, installed 'recommended' driver updates. Added printer back. Scanner functions perfectly, printer just 'hangs' telling me it is 'printing' but it does not. WiFi connection is fine, or of course the scanner wouldn't work. Frustrated beyond belief.

I have written a macOS app that uses the iTunesLibrary framework. The app utilizes the media item's persistentID as provided by the iTunesLibrary framework to manage the settings for the track within my app. I develop this app on an iMac (late 2015) using Xcode 12.4. I then distribute the app to my MacBook Air (2020 M1). I use Rsync to synchronize any music files from the Music Library that have been modified (lyrics/cover art, etc.), including the Music/Music/Music Library.musiclibrary database. The need for the persistentID of the media item to remain consistent from one machine to the other is paramount for the app to work. Otherwise, the app is broken. This is why I am Rsyncing the library database. I did not have an issue with this on macOS Big Sur 11.1 and earlier. The persistentID was being preserved on both machines and the software worked perfectly. However, for some reason now the persistentID is not being persistent across machines. It is like the Music database on the Macbook Air

In updating to beta 4, Big Sur seems to have locked the drive with FileVault. It is trying to retry the update, but says my drive is encrypted and to enter the password. Problem is, my admin user password doesn’t work and neither does my iCloud password. I’ve tried terminal tricks from the recovery partition for hours with no success. I 100% did not set a FileVault password at any time manually, and this isn’t a case of a forgotten password on my admin account - I’m sure of it. It’s the same one I’ve used on my Mac for years and I’ve entered it with success hundreds of times in Big Sur before this update bricked my install. When I go to unlock my other partition, Catalina, it allows me to choose an associated user - my admin account. Big Sur drive does not even give me that option.

Using ASWebAuthenticationSession and ASPresentationAnchor for OAuth has been working as expected but after updating to Big Sur the authentication flow is now opening two Safari windows. This occurs only when Safari is completely shutdown, when an instance is running a single window will be displayed as expected. Microsoft has an example which is having the same issue. https://github.com/Azure-Samples/ms-identity-macOS-swift-objc Has anyone else come across this with Big Sur?

After updating OS to Big Sur, My 2015 Macbook Pro doesn't search my external hard drive at all.

I'm currently running MacOS Big Sur 11.0.1 on a MacBook Pro 16in and I'm trying to update to version 11.1 but I have been stuck on Preparing macOS Big Sur 11.1 Update... About 10 minutes remaining for a few hours. I have tried restarting my MacBook Pro multiple times but I keep running into the same problem. Please help!!

I updated to Big Sur this morning and Safari is almost unusable due to being super slow cleared cache, extensions. Doesn’t help any ideas?

After updating to iOS Big Sur I can not share my screen when I'm using Zhumu. I'm an online English tutor so I need to have this function working.

Hi, Since updating to Big Sur i've had this strange error, that i've been debugging to try and help out a bit with this error i'm getting with local DNS. I use Docker/Kubernetes locally to run a particular application at a series of particular domains via the browser. I do this by adding local IPs to the Network/(Adapter)/DNS/DNS Servers and having the last item be 8.8.8.8 so it would pick up the local docker container DNS first and fall back etc. Upon upgrading (from Catalina) I noticed that these were not working. so did the normal things of flushing DNS, clearing cache etc. Then it would work, but only for a small period of time after a DNS flush using: sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder So i would have a small window where i could access these, and once on the domain it seemed to be fine and would stick the DNS to the correct DNS Server IP, however all other local domains would fail, but if i run the flush DNS command again it would allow me onto the failed domain again. I naturally debugge

I have a problem mounting an encrypted volume on Big Sur (11.1). In DiskUtility, when I select the volume, click Mount, enter password and click Unlock, nothing happens. I also tried to use CLI to unlock the volume using command: diskutil apfs unlockVolume /dev/disk1s6 but it gives me error: Passphrase: ACM: LibCall_ACMContextCreate: returning, err = -536870181. Error -536870181 (0xe00002db) creating ACM Context for passphrase I also tried to create a new encrypted volume with simple password '123', but after I unmounted it and tried to mount again I got the same error. Device: MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) Is it a bug in Big Sur or am I doing something wrong? Should I just wait for an update with a fix? I don't have an urgent need to decrypt the data because I have a backup. The question is about possibility of using encrypted volumes in macOS.

So after updating to Big Sur, my airpods won't connect to my Macbook. It let's me connect but after 5-10 seconds it just disconnects. (No audio can play during this time either). I've tried removing the airpods from my iCloud devices a couple ways but it didn't seem to make a difference. Please help!

Hey, is there anything that works for you with Big Sur, on legacy Intel hardware or Apples M1? I can't even shut down one of my Macs without a kernel panic occurring. Feedback Assistant is useless as no bugs I reported are fixed and I never get a reply or a request for more informations. Level 2 support takes hours to write everything in a ticket, only to have no one respond. This Input field here on 'Ask a Question' doesn't show any text because it is broken. Nothing seems to get fixed at Apple. Most of the bugs and kernel panics I encounter are in forums where people described them last year in the beta phase. Is there a why to push Apple to increase the software quality? Thanks, Martin

I have a 21.5 inch iMac that is part of the Beta program but I have yet to receive the Mac OS Big Sur Beta Download. Each time I attempt to do so, I receive a message that the version is not available and a warning that a Time Machine backup can not be found- even though it successfully backs up every hour. I am currently working on MacOC Catalina 10.15.7 Any Suggestions?

Hello, I recently attempted to upgrade from Catalina to Big Sur. Unfortunately I decided to use an external HD to process this, when Big Sur created the install partition it converted the data one the hardrive (800 GB) to a different partition in Apfs format. I can no longer access the files, but when looking at the volume on the HD I can still see the 800 gigs as being used on the HD. Is there anything I can do to convert the HD back to its previous state or convert the Apfs file back to the original file. Thanks

It seems that signed pkg installers in Big Sur can't run on El Capitan or earlier due an invalid signature. Sierra and newer OS versions work fine though. This wasn't the case with using productsign in Catalina. Were there some changes with how certificates are handled, and how can I add back support for earlier OS versions? Thanks
