Letting you know in case it is relevant for you.
### PROBLEM
I have just become aware of an issue with the recording/playback meters in Audacity if you are running Mac OS X 14.2
> **[Recording + Playback Meter not displaying correctly](https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/recording-playback-meter-not-displaying-correctly/97197/4)**
>
> My Mac is completely up to date and reinstalling Audacity didn’t help either, so unfortunately it’s not resolved for me through this!
### FIX
Update to Mac OS 14.3 seems to resolve it
* * *
I can’t run the latest versions of the Mac OS on my old laptop, so I can not reproduce the problem or the fix.
Any experience or feedback is appreciated.
NB Audacity version is currently at 3.4.2
Best wishes, and keep making a change
Steve

Hi Steve and everyone,
I had this same issue recently, which seems to be entirely a MAC omission. So I joined the [Apple Beta group](https://beta.apple.com/) to access Sonoma 14.3 (Beta) which resolves it. (Unfortunately, I no longer have the download files.) Sonoma 14.4 is now out in Beta but I haven’t installed it yet.
Hope this helps.
Leslie

Thanks for the feedback. Good to know. Each ‘improvement’ is an opportunity for something to break. I am amazed that computers work at all.

Of course. We can take a look.
