Re: Ventura Issues
#2The ones I’ve noticed - once the 10g adapter just decided to imitate a DSL modem for some reason. Disabling and reenabling it fixed it (it reported 10g negotiated on Both sides the whole time).
And if I edit a file in downloads and save it - finder sorts it at the top (I sort by date) but an upload file dialog in safari doesn’t see the new date

#3Some of these may not be bugs. For example, I actually prefer this:
> Mail now loses the mailbox selection when you start a search, instead changing the selection to All Mailboxes, which is rarely the scope that I want.
This one isn’t new to Ventura. This happened all the time to me as far back as Big Sur:
> External drives still take minutes to mount or sometimes never mount automatically. Sometimes I can manually mount them from Disk Utility. Other times I need to reboot or disconnect other drives first.
The real question is, has the author opened Feedback Requests about these things? If not, don’t expect them to get fixed any time soon.

#4The System Preferences redesign was a huge red flag. This OS is a Lion, no thanks.

#5Apple is badly, badly in need of a “code red” style freeze on new features for macOS and iOS. Even very basic things which should be rock solid are not. I just had a kernel panic when copying files to an smb mount. No issue when I do the same copy mounted as nfs. Ridiculous in this era.

I also prefer the new all mailbox search. The old behaviour drove me mad. It’s definitely not a bug.

Long ago, the release speed in the entire industry accelerated. I knew that quality would nose dive as a result because there was no way to develop and fully test an entire OS (even for a phone) as frequently as each is being released. All operating systems are now effectively permanently in beta.

External drives still take minutes to mount or sometimes never mount automatically. Sometimes I can manually mount them from Disk Utility. Other times I need to reboot or disconnect other drives first.
I've encountered failing USB disks which appear to work fine on macOS, but suddenly operations take minutes to perform and can block operations system wide. They don't report errors, and they don't show as CPU use in any program, but everything on the system slows to a crawl when you hit sensitive spots on the disk.
It's worth removing external storage devices and adding them back one by one any time you have a hanging or slow Mac to diagnose.
Apple hates to scare or confuse users, but if a disk drive is taking a four orders of magnitude more time to do operations than it used to, I'd like my computer to please let me know.

Actually, I think 10.7 was a Lion ;)

#10Ventura has serious issues with ExFAT volumes (failing to boot with them connected, Finder or other apps not showing all of the files, inability to empty the trash, etc.) I have several 2 TB external SSD's and ended up migrating them all to APFS because of Ventura. If you google "ventura exfat site:discussions.apple.com" you'll see all sorts of complaints. Pretty terrible situation.
