macOS 15.4 Beta (24E5222f) Killed My External Displays – Send Help (or an Exorcist)
For 9 Glorious Months, My MacBook Pro & J5 Create JCD543 HUB Were Best Friends… Until I Updated macOS For nearly a year, my MacBook Pro 14” (2023, M2 Pro, 16GB RAM) worked flawlessly with my J5 Create JCD543 HUB, allowing me to run: ✅ 4 External Displays (Samsung, LG, Insignia, Samsung) A setup that worked perfectly… until I updated macOS. Then Came the Update… and the Issues Began First, I updated last week. Two of my four displays stopped working. No big deal, I thought—I’ve dealt with display quirks before. Then, like an optimist ignoring red flags, I updated again last night to 15.4 Beta (24E5222f) and… well, now things are completely broken. My Once-Perfect Setup (Now a Display Disaster) JCD543 HUB → 2 HDMI displays (not working) JUD380 HUB → 1 HDMI display (partially working, unstable) MacBook HDMI port → 1 HDMI display (working, but feeling abandoned) JCA365 USB-C to Dual HDMI Adapter (Not part of my setup, but tested—also not working) What I’ve Tried (aka My Troubleshooting Journey) ✔ Restarted my Mac multiple times ✔ Uninstalled and reinstalled J5 drivers ✔ Swapped cables, unplugged/replugged everything, tested known-working HDMI cables (they work fine on other devices) ✔ Deleted /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.displays.plist (this fixed a similar issue in the past, but the file no longer exists in this update) The Likely Culprit? It seems to be a J5 driver issue triggered by the macOS update—and I’m not alone. Others are reporting similar problems. Apple… Any Fixes? I just want my four screens back. The setup worked flawlessly for 9 months, so it’s hard to believe it was never meant to work. If anyone has a workaround, I’m open to testing any solution—whether it’s a driver update, system tweak, or hidden macOS setting that might bring my displays back to life. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. (P.S. Apple, if you’re reading this—please look into this issue!)

Can't believe that beta went to the public.

SwiftUI: Major unannounced change in iOS18.4 beta1
Hi, I have noticed a major change to a SwiftUI API behavior in iOS18.4beta1 which breaks my app's functionality, and I've started hearing from users running the new beta that the app doesn't correctly work for them anymore. The problem is with views that contain a List with multiple-selection, and the contextMenu API applied with the ‘primaryAction’ callback that is triggered when the user taps on a row. Previously, if the user tapped on a row, this callback was triggered with the 'selectedItems' showing the tapped item. With iOS18.4beta, the same callback is triggered with ‘selectedItems’ being empty. I have the code to demonstrate the problem: struct ListSelectionTestView: View { @State private var items: [TimedItem] = [ TimedItem(number: 1, timestamp: "2024-11-20 10:00"), TimedItem(number: 2, timestamp: "2024-11-20 11:00"), TimedItem(number: 3, timestamp: "2024-11-20 12:00") ] @State var selectedItems = Set<TimedItem.ID>() var body: some View { NavigationStack { List(selection: $selectedItems) { ForEach(items) { item in Text("Item \(item.number) - \(item.timestamp)") } } .contextMenu(forSelectionType: TimedItem.ID.self, menu: {_ in Button(action: { print("button called - count = \(selectedItems.count)") }) { Label("Add Item", systemImage: "square.and.pencil") } }, primaryAction: {_ in print("primaryAction called - count = \(selectedItems.count)") }) } } } struct TimedItem: Identifiable { let id = UUID() let number: Int let timestamp: String } #Preview { ListSelectionTestView() } Running the same code on iOS18.2, and tapping on a row will print this to the console: primaryAction called - count = 1 Running the same code on iOS18.4 beta1, and tapping on a row will print this to the console: primaryAction called - count = 0 So users who were previously selecting an item from the row, and then seeing expected behavior with the selected item, will now suddenly tap on a row and see nothing. My app's functionality relies on the user selecting an item from a list to see another detailed view with the selected item's contents, and it doesn't work anymore. This is a major regression issue. Please confirm and let me know. I have filed a feedback: FB16593120

iPhone 16 Pro boot loop with iOS 18.4 beta
I installed iOS 18.4 on Friday evening, all worked well during Saturday and Sunday, Monday morning the Phone rebooted and appeared to have installed an Update, I didn´t notice, I was about to answer a WhatsApp and the TestFlight beta didn´t start up, a renew of the App was not possible due to TestFlight not being available. So I thought a reboot would help, but I did a reset, since then BOOT LOOP. I brought in recovery mode, updated with the 18.4 ipsw, no change - BOOT LOOP

Xcode 16 warning about missing symbols of static framework
I work on an SDK, and one of the ways we distribute it is as a pre-compiled static XCFramework. As far as I know, it’s the nature of a static framework to not contain symbols since the framework will be embedded in the final app binary, and the symbols should then be generated. However, when testing the "Validate" function of the Xcode 16 deployment process, our users are receiving a warning that says the framework does not contain symbols. Is my assumption about static frameworks and symbols incorrect? Could this be a bug in Xcode 16? Should we modify something in our framework to inform Xcode that symbols are not needed?

Xcode 16.3 beta Predictive Code Completion not working
With MacOS Sequoia 15.4 Beta (24E5206s) and Xcode 16.3 beta (16E5104o), Predictive Code Completion no longer works. Prior to the update, (as of yesterday) completion worked under Xcode 16.2 and MacOS 15.3 Beta. The models are already loaded. So far, I've found the Predictive Completion to be useful in some situations (eg multiple cases in a switch), variably reliable in others (eg code suggestions in a CoreData stack) and downright wrong & annoying in others (eg referring to functions / modules that don't exist). Regards, Michaela

Can't download 15.4 beta 1
Hi. I have three disk partitions on my MacBook Air M1. The one with Monterey, the one with Sonoma, and the one with Sequoia (15.3.1 in particular). When I try to download the 15.4 Beta from software update in settings, everything would go "fine" - the download process is being completed, the computer says it's going to restart in 60seconds, the countdown begins, etc. However, when restarting several times, I am being logged in once again into previous macOS (15.3.1) version, with a kernel panic report. I had the same panic on macOS 15.3 when attempting to download 15.4 Beta. I've upgraded my macOS to 15.3.1, as I thought I'd need the very last available version of regular macOS to participate in the newest beta. However, the panic occurs, pointing to some t8020dart.c file. I don't even theoretically know what is this and couldn't find any reference to that C file. Attaching a part of panic report: panic(cpu 3 caller 0x0): t8020dart 0xfffffdf02c980000 (dart-disp0): Can't ignore lock validation @t8020dart.c:535 Debugger message: panic Memory ID: 0xff OS release type: Not set yet OS version: Not set yet Kernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 24.4.0: Sat Feb 15 22:43:38 PST 2025; root:xnu-11417.100.533.501.4~3/RELEASE_ARM64_T8103 Fileset Kernelcache UUID: 232D67A6D42C66E14780A24B3C0AE05D Kernel UUID: F2602757-A486-30A9-8D8E-714224E5FE4A Boot session UUID: 575CD5EA-6898-47ED-9AEC-05E318135695 iBoot version: iBoot-11881.100.964.0.1 iBoot Stage 2 version: iBoot-11881.100.964.0.1 secure boot?: YES roots installed: 0 Paniclog version: 14 KernelCache slide: 0x00000000181d8000 KernelCache base: 0xfffffe001f1dc000 Kernel slide: 0x00000000181e0000 Kernel text base: 0xfffffe001f1e4000 Kernel text exec slide: 0x00000000198d0000 Kernel text exec base: 0xfffffe00208d4000 mach_absolute_time: 0x85b39c4 Epoch Time: sec usec Boot : 0x00000000 0x00000000 Sleep : 0x00000000 0x00000000 Wake : 0x00000000 0x00000000 Calendar: 0x00000000 0x00000000 Zone info: Zone map: 0xfffffe120c000000 - 0xfffffe380c000000 .

Implement UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate in iOS app using Swift6
I've got a problem with compatibility with Swift6 in iOS app that I have no idea how to sort it out. That is an extract from my main app file @MainActor @main struct LangpadApp: App { ... @State private var notificationDataProvider = NotificationDataProvider() @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(NotificationServiceDelegate.self) var notificationServiceDelegate var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { TabView(selection: $tabSelection) { ... } .onChange(of: notificationDataProvider.dateId) { oldValue, newValue in if !notificationDataProvider.dateId.isEmpty { tabSelection = 4 } } } } init() { notificationServiceDelegate.notificationDataProvider = notificationDataProvider } } and the following code shows other classes @MainActor final class NotificationServiceDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate, UNUserNotificationCenterDelegate { var notificationDataProvider: NotificationDataProvider? func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -&amp;gt; Bool { UNUserNotificationCenter.current().delegate = self return true } func setDateId(dateId: String) { if let notificationDataProvider = notificationDataProvider { notificationDataProvider.dateId = dateId } } nonisolated func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, didReceive response: UNNotificationResponse) async { // After user pressed notification let content = response.notification.request.content if let dateId = content.userInfo["dateId"] as? String { await MainActor.run { setDateId(dateId: dateId) } } } nonisolated func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresent notification: UNNotification) async -&amp;gt; UNNotificationPresentationOptions { // Before notification is to be shown return [.sound, .badge, .banner, .list] } } @Observable final public class NotificationDataProvider : Sendable { public var dateId = "" } I have set Strict Concurrency Checking to 'Complete.' The issue I'm facing is related to the delegate class method, which is invoked after the user presses the notification. Current state causes crash after pressing notification. If I remove "nonisolated" keyword it works fine but I get the following warning Non-sendable type 'UNNotificationResponse' in parameter of the protocol requirement satisfied by main actor-isolated instance method 'userNotificationCenter(_:didReceive:)' cannot cross actor boundary; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode I have no idea how to make it Swift6 compatible. Does anyone have any clues?
