Apple Seeds Sixth Developer Beta of macOS Sequoia 15.1 [Update: Public Beta Available]

Apple today provided developers with the sixth beta of an upcoming macOS Sequoia 15.1 beta, with the new update coming two weeks after Apple released the fifth beta.

macOS Sequoia Feature
Registered developers can opt-in to the macOS Sequoia beta through the Software Update section of the System Settings app. An Apple ID associated with an Apple Developer account is required to get the beta.

macOS Sequoia 15.1 introduces the first Apple Intelligence features, adding support for Writing Tools, new Siri features, Smart Replies in Mail and Messages, Priority messages in the Mail app, Memory Movie and Clean Up in Photos, and more.

The update does not include Image Playground, Genmoji, or more advanced ‌Siri‌ functionality.

Using Apple Intelligence features requires a Mac that has an Apple silicon chip.

Maybe this will finally fix all the borked VPN and security software issues.

I do run into some weird issues with this latest PB:

* Whenever I try to run certain apps (such as MATLAB), the system says that I do not have the permission to open them:

* "The application "Dock" does not have permission to open "null."" when I try running from the Dock, and
* "The application "Finder" does not have permission to open "null."" whenever I try running from the Applications folder in Finder.


Never encountered this before.
