Apple may open OS X Yosemite's beta gates to all later this month

Yosemite is scheduled to arrive this fall, but not before a public beta

Apple isn't in the habit of releasing public betas of new OS versions. In fact, it's been over a decade since it has.


But that changes with OS X 10.10 Yosemite, which will enter public beta this month, reports 9 to 5 Mac.


The public will gain access to a beta build of Apple's latest OS X overhaul by the end of July, with the fourth version of the developer preview arriving July 21, sources told the site.


Apple previously said a public preview of Yosemite would take place by the end of summer.


Plans change

The same sources told the site that a new developer preview of iOS 8 will arrive July 21 as well, though the report is tempered with a warning that 'these plans are fluid' and might change.


In addition that means that the OS X Yosemite beta might actually be pushed back to early August, according to these sources, who said Apple wants to make sure the OS is ready for the public.


Yosemite brings a number of changes to OS X, including interface tweaks, better spotlight search, increased iOS synchronization, and improvements to various apps.


The update is scheduled to arrive this fall.
