Apple Releases Second Public Beta of macOS Mojave 10.14.5

Apple today seeded the second beta of an upcoming macOS Mojave 10.14.5 update to its public beta testing group, a day after seeding the beta to developers and a little over a week after releasing the first macOS Mojave 10.14.5 public beta.

The macOS Mojave update can be downloaded using the Software Update mechanism in the Mac App Store after downloading the appropriate profile from Apple's beta testing website. Apple's beta testing site gives users access to iOS, macOS, and tvOS betas.

We don't yet know what improvements the macOS Mojave 10.14.5 update will bring, but it likely focuses on bug fixes and performance improvements for issues that weren't able to be fixed in the macOS 10.14.4 update.

There were no notable features found in the first two developer betas of macOS Mojave 10.14.5.

I hope that's GPU would find the way into 7,1 in upcoming WWDC (if Apple can deliver their promise 2 years ago)

It'll be finding its way into my Hack before too long either way!

It may be not notable or immediately visible function but starting from 10.14.5 there is a new requirement implemented for developers called „App notarization”, another step in macOS security that some people may consider as limiting freedom of downloading applications from outside MAS. More details in Apple Developer Documentation. ('https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/notarizing_your_app_before_distribution')

Sorry but does anyone know why its made my MacBook Pro super zoomed in?! This happened straight after installing this 10.14.5 Beta (18F108f)

This happened to me too, just updated my pro and its super zoomed, so annoying. Hopefully fixed in next release.

While the new iPad mini has an OLED display, the device does not support ProMotion, meaning the display's refresh rate is limited to 60Hz instead of 120Hz. ProMotion support would have allowed for the iPad mini's refresh rate to automatically adjust from 10Hz to 120Hz depending on the content being displayed, but evidently Apple has kept the feature exclusive to the iPad Pro among iPad...
