The SDK comes bundled with Xcode 14.3, available from the Mac App Store. For information on the compatibility requirements for Xcode 14.3, see Xcode 14.3 Release Notes. Accelerate New Features The BLAS and LAPACK libraries under the Accelerate framework are now inline with reference version 3.9.1. These new interfaces provide additional functionality and a new ILP64 interface. To use the new interfaces, define ACCELERATE_NEW_LAPACK before including the Accelerate or vecLib headers. For ILP64 interfaces, also define ACCELERATE_LAPACK_ILP64. For Swift projects, specify ACCELERATE_NEW_LAPACK=1 and ACCELERATE_LAPACK_ILP64=1 as preprocessor macros in Xcode build settings. (105572917) Accessory Security New Features On Apple silicon portables, SD or SD extended capacity cards require user approval before the card can communicate with macOS. (102838867) Core ML Deprecations Core ML Model Deployment is being deprecated. Consider using Background Assets or NSURLSession instead. (102993813) iCloud Settings Known Issues You might be unable to enter the upgrade page for iCloud+ from iCloud Settings. (104629261) Workaround: Click “Upgrade to iCloud+” from https://www.apple.com/icloud/ to trigger the upgrade page. Some apps which previously displayed sync toggles in iCloud Drive Settings aren’t currently displayed. (105239897) Installation Known Issues macOS Ventura 13.3 beta installer fails when upgrading from versions prior to macOS Big Sur. (106102320) Workaround: Upgrade to macOS Ventura 13.2.1 before upgrading to macOS Ventura 13.3. Metal Resolved Issues Fixed: MTLAccelerationStructureCommandEncoder now supports nil for a refit scratch buffer if the required size of the buffer is zero bytes. (103192673) Pages, Numbers, and Keynote Known Issues When Advanced Data Protection for iCloud is turned on, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote might unexpectedly require collaborative documents to be closed. (103463223) Workaround: Close the affected document, spreadsheet, or presentation and reopen it after a few minutes. Safari Web Extensions New Features Added support for modifyHeaders action type for declarativeNetRequest rules. (71867709) Added support for browser.storage.session to store up to 10MB of data in-memory. (79283961) Added support for persistent content scripts via browser.scripting.registerContentScript, browser.scripting.getRegisteredContentScripts, browser.scripting.unregisterContentScripts, and scripting.updateContentScripts. (91261369) Resolved Issues Fixed browser.webNavigation events firing for hosts where the extension didn’t have access. Extensions should request host permissions for sites to receive events. (100204850) StoreKit Resolved Issues Fixed an issue causing iOS apps on Mac to fail while purchasing or restoring in-app content. (102123618) SwiftUI Resolved Issues Fixed a regression where the truncationMode view modifier didn’t truncate TextField on macOS. (53647517) Fixed: Dragging an Image using draggable modifier no longer causes an app to freeze. (99157719) Fixed: An App defined with a Window scene will no longer cause the window tabbing menu items to be displayed, nor will it participate in any window tabbing behavior. (100982500) Fixed: Presentations in SwiftUI using the ‘sheet’ or ‘fullScreenCover’ modifier can now be dynamically presented again while a dismiss animation is in progress. Previously, attempting to present again in this case would do nothing. Note: A data race in app code that was previously ignored might cause a sheet to be presented again with this change. If this happens, check that your state isn’t triggering a new presentation. (101487810) Fixed an issue on macOS where columns in Table might not be able to be resized. (101936572) Fixed: When used as an auxiliary scene in a SwiftUI App, the Window scene will now behave as an auxiliary window with respect to Stage Manager and full screen mode. (102106455) Fixed: List in .sidebar style now supports swipe actions. (103910772) Fixed: List with DisclosureGroup now supports expand/collapse animations when isExpanded is set within a withAnimation block. (104923100) Fixed: Table on macOS will now properly respond to scrollTo requests with dynamcially added rows as target IDs. (105579236) SwiftUI Navigation Resolved Issues Fixed: .navigationSplitViewColumn and .layoutPriority now control the widths of columns of a NavigationSplitView on macOS. Use the existing .windowResizability(.contentSize) scene modifier if needed to control the window’s size based off a root NavigationSplitView. struct MeasuredNavigationSplit: View { var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { Color.cyan .navigationSplitViewColumnWidth(min: 90, ideal: 100, max: 300) .layoutPriority(2) } content: { Color.pink .navigationSplitViewColumnWidth(ideal: 300, max: 400) .layoutPriority(3) } detail: { Color.yellow .navigationSplitViewColumnWidth(min: 200, ideal: 300) .layoutPriority(2) } } } (58333786) Fixed: Navigation destinations nested within NavigationStack and NavigationSplitView are detected more performantly and reliably, no longer logging update cycles. (97597634) Fixed: Navigation destinations that present a new view on top of a NavigationSplitViewColumn (rather than pushing a view onto a stack in that column) no longer cause an assertion failure on iOS or infinite loop on macOS when the destination view is itself a NavigationStack. For example, the below construction is functional NavigationSplitView { SidebarView() .navigationDestination(isPresented: $present) { NavigationStack { ... } } } detail: { ... } (103278180) Fixed: Navigation destinations with data dependencies captured from ancestor views update more reliably. struct DataDependentNavigation: View { @State var changeColor: Bool = false @State var present: Bool = false var body: some View { NavigationSplitView { Color.blue .navigationDestination(isPresented: $present) { // This is a data dependency from an ancestor view changeColor ? Color.green : Color.yellow } } detail: { Color.teal } } (103429535) Task Manager Resolved Issues Fixed an issue introduced in macOS Ventura 13.1 that caused the system to post excessive “Background Items Added” notifications after toggling items in System Settings > General > Login Items. Toggling items in macOS Ventura 13.2 doesn’t cause excessive notifications, but that release doesn’t automatically correct the issue inherited from macOS Ventura 13.1. (102352141) Virtualization Resolved Issues Fixed: Installing macOS Ventura 13.3 beta on a virtual machine running on a Apple silicon Mac might result in a hang during setup.
