Stop OS X Beta Software Update Notification In Mac App Store


If you have downloaded and installed any of the beta versions of OS X so far, there are chances that you will keep getting the regular software updates in the Mac App Store. When you get an official regular update excluding beta, then we highly recommend you to update it because most often, there’s a security bug solution.

However, with beta updates, it’s not always seen that you update it and eventually, it turns out to be annoying.

Note: Many users have issues that being notified for every small beta update may be important sometime, but in most cases only for developers who develop the software for OS X, but for the regular users, this is not even a case. Beta updates are precisely not meant for users.

Follow the steps mentioned below to stop the OS X beta software update notification in Mac app store:



1.     First of all, ensure that the Mac App Store is not open. Close it.
2.     Tap on the Apple Menu and go to the System Preferences.
3.     Then tap on the App Store.
4.     There you are going to find a button labeled as Change. You will see it next to the option “Your computer is set to release pre-release Software Update seeds.” Tap it.
5.     Then all you have got to do is to select the “Don’t show the Pre-release” option.

That’s it; doing the above step so will stop the beta software update notifications in your Mac App Store.

Apple determined to let not just some of the chosen developers but the public or regular users as well, to test their new operating system that includes OS X 10.10, codenamed Yosemite. A vast number of users have jumped in on the opportunity.

An adverse effect of it is that you are also likely to be signed up for pre-release beta software updates. Thus, these are the Software Updates that Apple wants to try out in the open before making them part of the regular software.

Conclusion – When the pre-release software update seeds option is turned off, you will no longer be able to receive notifications about these updates.
