MacOS Sequoia v15 Beta 3: lots of crashes & bugs (after 9 July 2024)

[HenryTheX]

After updating to MacOS 15.0 beta 3, the BlueBubbles apps has tons of new bugs:

1. It no longer sends photo or videos. On 1.9.7 Server version, photo will always showing waiting for iMessage but will never get sent. On 1.9.8 Beta version server, it will crash the server on Mac
2. The server kept crashing after updating to 1.9.8 beta version of the server.
3. FindMy doesnt work, it doesnt show anything on my Android phone BlueBubble app, no friends, no item airtags nothing
4. Headless mode no longer launch iMessage app on Mac which resulted in Headless mode doesnt work at all.

It's confirmed related to Private API Attachment send. After turning it off, attachments are sent normally. Kindly fix this bug after the new macOS 15 Beta 3

I can help test any patch builds, just lmk.

[cameronaaron]

I do not think the devs are testing at all on Sequoia so I dont think this will be done until offical release. I do think there was quite a few API changes in Sequoia

[crazybadger]

1.9.8 is not working at all for me on macOS 15.1, but I appreciate that's the gamble with running a beta. BlueBubbles is the only thing I'm running that isn't working, though, so overall, it is a very stable beta release

[cameronaaron]

thats because apple changed the apis

[war59312]

Any sort of update?

[Pnut-GGG]

Finally successfully decrypted the findmy cache file, which will help bluebubbles-server support FindMy function for all versions of macOS. View my projects for detailed information https://github.com/Pnut-GGG/findmy-cache-decryptor

[war59312]

Perhaps update the FAQ question "What is the best macOS device and version to use?" .

And list specifically both Sonoma (works great) and Sequoia (not supported/tested yet) sort of thing.

[crazybadger]

Will this ever be updated to work on the latest version of macOS, which is now another year on?
