Working as expected on my machines. Thanks for fixing this.

Big Sur Beta 2: Music - When check boxes are checked, cannot uncheck single or multiple boxes. Once the checkmarks are there, they're there permanently. Seems to exclude the (theoretically) unchecked media but the check does not go away.

Pardon me if this is way too simplistic, but this works for me and gives a (very small) indication that Syncing is actually happening.Open Music (RIP iTunes). Select the device you want to sync on the list of devices on the left. Click Sync Settings at the top of Music (again RIP iTunes), a Finder window should open and the device to be synced will be listed at the top of the Finder wiindow and listed under Locations on the left. Select Sync at the bottom right of Finder. There should now be a circle at the device listing in Locations which will "fill" as the device syncs. That circle will fill and clear as each part of the sync is performed. This is a REALLY LOUSY way to display the sync prrocess but apparently we're stuck with it for now.

Possibly for you but it wasn't for me. I found a way to fix it, but it should never happen in the first place.

Just select Name (or whatever the second option on the left is), open it, close it and the update circled 1 goes away.
That also works to remove the bloatware (Chess, Home, News, Siri, Stocks, VoiceMemos) that keep this from being a decent workplace operating system. This assumes you have booted into Recovery mode and disabled SIP.1. Restart the machine in normal operating mode.2. sudo mount -uw /3 cd /System/Applications4. sudo rm -rf Appname.app5. Voila! No bloatware6. Command-R to enter Recovery mode7. Re-enable SIP8. Restart to get rid of left over icon place holders9. Ask your people if the can do their normal work on the new beta.
Thank you. I can now delete the BLOATware that Apple is inflicting on what may beome a decent operating system.

I run 10.14 Mojave in a VM. I run 10.15 natively. 10.15 is S-L-O-W. VMWare does not support the Catalina Beta. If you have it (the beta) running under VMWare, pleases share how you managed to accomplish that. There are a lot of people here who would like to be able to do so. Incidentally, where did you get the idea I'm running it in a virtual machine? Here is the direct quote from my initial posting: "The people I have who are testing this O/S now have Mojave loaded in VMWare so they can get work done in a timely manner." You'll note I said MOJAVE not Catalina. (Oh, waitaminnit, you're up the same horrible hour I am. No wonder. This is why I never post anything until after the second cup of coffee...😁 )

You're not attacking, you'll note I said observations. The inclusion or 300 unwanted and unnecessary programs that interfere with my people getting work done is an observationl. Someone is going to have to decide eventually if Apple is going to be the millenial's new toy or a serious instrument to perform serious work. (How about two versions of the O/S? One without all the IOS geegaws for people who actually use the system to perform serious work with aond one with all the bloatware?) I then proceeded to list problems that I have observed while running the alpha...erm berta.This is the tird iteration of the beta some of those problems have existed since day 1 and don't appear to have been addressed. Others are intermittent and need to be addressed.All of these are problems, hitches,observatons that might not have been noted by the O/S creators. As this is really a forum reporting on fads and foibles of the proposed O/S, I'm reasonably certain someone would like those tidbits of information.(as a side note, I have been beta testing since IBM DOS 2.0. I tend to give lots of chances for things to be corrected and/or improved before saying somehing about what I usually consider minor issues. Once or twice? I'll ignore it, after that? Well, I did create that original post). 😁

Quote: What happened to real programs, written by real developers? Quality code, that is well thought out in function and form. Everything is turning into this "lite" web based junk. /QUOTEIf it doesn't involve "selfies", social media, or texting, it doesn't seem to exist any more. When all of your life is centered around "me", anything that involves considering the real world is just too much work. 😠

It's becoming more Windows like every day. When something doesn't work...why just reboot...and reboot...and reboot...ad nauseum.

It's a common problem. I think it might have something to do with phases of the moon or sun spots. :-). Everything works now and then, just not consistently and now when you absolutely need to have it work.

Unfortunately, it seems commands/programs/apps work and then they don't. Sometimes I can restart and get non-functional programs to work, sometimes, I'm just wasting my time.
