OS X Yosemite public beta arrives<article>
<section class="page">
<p>
On Thursday, fall came early for hundreds of thousands of Mac users as Apple released its first public beta of
OS X Yosemite. The public-beta program,
announced during Apple’s annual developer conference in June, is letting regular users download and test pre-release versions of OS X. Apple says the first million users to sign up
at the OS X Beta Program website will be able to test Yosemite before the OS is released to the general public in the fall.</p><p>
Users who signed up for the program are receiving redemption codes to enter in the Mac App Store, at which point a Yosemite installer app will download to their Macs. Once Yosemite is installed, future updates to the beta software will come automatically via the system’s standard Software Update functionality. For much more detail about the public beta and how to install it, check out our
