Not too long has passed since the release of the official full version of the macOS Catalina operating system. Now, various "childhood diseases" that Catalina - or rather users - have to deal with are gradually coming to the surface. The most recent is issues with the native Mail app - some users are starting to report issues with data loss after upgrading to macOS Catalina.

Developer Michael Tsai is among those who have pointed out problems with the application, for example, who writes in his blog post about apparently successful updates, but after which some users may encounter missing messages or incomplete versions of them. For some messages, after moving between mailboxes, only their header may appear, while others may be completely missing. For users who use native Mail as their primary email client, Tsai recommends waiting to upgrade to macOS Catalina until Apple will come up with a fix for this bug. It is not ruled out that some messages could be completely lost. Tsai also points out that these problems can also be reflected in backups. According to him, the native Mail application no longer performs an automatic full backup of all messages, and the backup may therefore be incomplete. ProRestoring from a backup can also be problematic. In addition, you cannot use a backup from a previous Mojave to restore data lost after upgrading to macOS Catalina. According to Tsai, access to previous versions of Mail data folders can be obtained via Time Machine and then importing individual mailboxes.

A fix for the Mail app issues is expected in a future software update, but until then, users are encouraged to: maximal precautions. What issues have you experienced after upgrading to macOS Catalina?
luckily i don't have these problems so i'm fine so far. Nevertheless, I have a problem with Synology and SMB connect in general when after waking up I can no longer connect to any SMB/AFP server.
I'll do a clean install today and see. So far, I'm quite disappointed with Catalina because I'm going to reinstall from Sierra for the first time because I need SMB connect
Yes, I also have the same problem with Synology – I can't connect to backup via Time Machine.
TimeMachine I have the Ide through AFP without problems
Interestingly, Catalina has no problem with Time Machine backup on Time Capsule or Mac OS shared address book (both AFP and SMB work without problems).. so the error will not be in Catalina, you have to wait until the Samba developers reverse engineer what has changed and then wait for the implementation of vfruit in Samba (and maybe it will work for a couple of backups, until after a month it displays a sparse bundle error)..
I have a problem with the preview application on both OS 10.15 and iOS 13.1.2 when documents that are not rotated in A4 format are not displayed correctly. They simply do not fit on the paper 🤷🏼♂️
Some apple users will be nice if they keep reporting any problems, I don't remember having any
of course when you can use it Safari that?
Ivo, that's exactly you when you only watch YouTube and every now and then you turn on the calculator for a difficult 2+1 calculation.
"Fixing Mail issues in SOME of the NEXT software updates will DEFINITELY be a long time coming"
I like how each article tries to end optimistically, the mix of certainty and uncertainty in apple developers and testers :-D
I believe that in one of the next articles, optimism will certainly not be long in coming. :-)
It seems to me that there are still some problems with Mac OS... Or rather, the main problem is that there are few programs for Mac and everyone relies on those from Appyou. Windows It's not perfect either, but I prefer to use it... iOS It has various bugs, but that can also be said about Android...
ProI've had a problem with MacOS Catalina since the first moment after installation.
1, Couldn't update my data after installation Apple ID which the system itself required of me. It was not possible to verify the login details. Nakonec I had to reinstall .Mac again and then it somehow started working. I have another problem with finderem and the photo app where it doesn't respond to me at all trackpad to my gestures. After double-clicking, the photo does not open. in Finder I also can't open folders or files. Proth trackpad is absolutely out of order in these applications.
S Apple ID I have the same problem.
If you use a lot of third-party applications, then I can only 'strongly advise against' updating to mac os Catalina. It must be taken into account that a larger number of applications simply will not work. If you really want to do it, it's a good idea to have TimeMachine backups in advance,
if you happen to change your mind and go back to Mojave, which is quite likely….
Hello! Does anyone know that when you update to Catalina, after a few minutes of installation it says: The installation cannot be completed because there is not enough space on the disk.? And I have about 70GB free! Then the screen goes black after a while the login screen appears and it repeats after entering the password. Thanks
I switched and I'm in trouble Win Stable doesn't work and the program I use is only for WIN does anyone have any ideas thanks.
Does anyone else feel like they're eating after upgrading to Catalina? MacBook Pro more battery? And it also runs cooler. or is it just my imagination? Thanks!
I have a problem with searching in mail, after restarting the OS it searches for the first time and when searching again it does not work again.
After installation, my text in MS was mirrored. Excelu. The font is mirrored and upside down. Same to my colleague. It was fixed with an update Excelu.
after switching to OS Catalina, after typing text in the search box, nothing happens. It is not possible to search for old messages.
