Yeah, me too. Always summer here
Installed Monterey just now and too early to know much but first impressions are that it seems smoother running on my intel mini.
Iāll be updating very shortly too.
Safari has gone back to proper tabs. Oh tears of joy.
Yeah. It was all online the other day that Apple had given up and reverted.
Iāve been running it on my laptop during beta, there is definitely an speed up in the interface animations in Blocs. Opening the Bloc and Bric bars is way smoother.
Classic āDownloading nowā post.
Then that moment you realise youāre not actually connected to the lan, and the WiFi router is on the other side of the house and youāre getting a 3mb connection for a 12gb download.
That seems to be the case here as well. Something else I have noticed is that the cpu operating temperatures are generally several degrees lower on this intel compared to Big Sur. I want to check out some of the new Monterey features soon.
The new IP relay didnāt work at first then kicked in after going back to iCloud a second time.
Im am having trouble with the IP relay with sites not loading. Had the same issue on the iPad. Still very much in beta in my experience with it.
Other than that the OS seems very smooth.
Just upgraded to Monterey on my M1 Mac mini. Took about 1/2 hour to complete. So far, all working well, including Blocs.
MacOS Monterey has a serious font cache problem, all Apple apps (TextEdit, Keynote, Pages, ā¦), donāt show the actual font name (in the fontmenus) anymore, instead they show LastResort glyphs instead of the actual font and family names. Non Apple Apps behave normally (e.g. Affinity apps). So for some reason the glyphs cannot be displayed and are replaced by the LastResort font glyphs. The fonts are all there (active and selectable), but the names are not displayed correctly.
Iāve already cleared all of the font caches, but nothing seems to help, but if I quit my third party fontmanager (e.g. RightFont, Typeface app, ā¦) and use Appleās Font Book instead (of course I have to reinstall all the fonts in Font Book), the problem is gone, unfortunately I donāt want to use Font Book, but unfortunately I have to, it seems. I didnāt do a clean install (iMac 2019, Catalina > Big Sur > Monterey).
Pre-installed and system fonts are not affected
Here some screenshots from TextEdit and Keynote, but it also happens in Pages and Numbers.
Iām facing the same challenges. Iām using Font Explorer and it pretty much messes up all. Newly added fonts are not showing up. Even not when installed directly into Appleās font book.
If you come across a website with Comic Sans itās most likely from me as itās one of the few still working nicely.
This is very helpful, thank you for making everyone aware of this issue.
I donāt plan to move to Monterey for several monthsā¦I usually wait for a .5 or .6 update.
As Apple updates Monterey, and you apply those updates, perhaps you could come back and let us know if it resolves this issue?
Anyone else who updated see this?
Same for you Jerryā¦Hopefully Apple is aware?
Rich
Also, people working with Soap UI against API endpoints might need to be aware that Soap UI is prone to random crashes under Monterey.
Not seeing any problems with my fonts. I checked TextEdit, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers apps. Not using any 3rd party font apps. What are some named fonts that are giving problems?
Same here. Everythingās fine.
@pruthe All user installed fonts are showing up like mentioned before. All pre-installed and system fonts are showing up normally. But like I said, if I also donāt use a 3rd party font manager and just use appleās font book, everything is fine.
