Apple Releases OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 Beta to Developers for Testing

As you already know, the guys from Cupertino have recently released iOS 8.4.1 beta to developers for testing. Apart from seeding a new version of the mobile operating system, Apple has also made OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 Beta 1 available for developers. To be honest, this is a surprise for me as I thought that OS X 10.10.4, released earlier this summer, will be the last build of OS X before the debut of OS X 10.11 El Capitan this fall.

Anyway, the latest build contains several important stability, security and performance improvements as well as several bug fixes. The build number is 14F6a and it looks like Apple hasn’t added any new features.

Here’s what the guys from Cupertino write about the beta:

The OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 update improves the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac.

If you have a developer account, you can download OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 from Apple’s dev portal. Keep in mind it is not recommended to install pre-release software on your main computer. It may be quite unstable and make your desktop or laptop less stable and efficient.
