After an accidental attempt to release the fifth Public Beta build of the anticipated Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan operating system to users worldwide on August 18, Apple started seeding the seventh Beta build of El Capitan to developers a few minutes ago.

Tagged as build 15A263e, OS X 10.11 El Capitan Beta 7 update is now available for Mac developers enrolled in the Apple Developer program. All you have to do is log in to your Apple developer account, go to the SDKs section, access the OS X page under Platforms and Tools, then click on the "Download" button on the upper right side of the page to download the new build.

"This is a pre-release update to OS X v10.11. If you have OS X v10.11 installed, download this update by clicking Updates in the toolbar of the Mac App Store. If you do not have OS X 10.11 installed, use your download code on the Mac App Store to get started," reads the new entry on the Apple Developer website.

As usual, no release notes for OS X 10.11 El Capitan Beta 7 are available at the moment of writing this article, but the update surely comes with multiple bugfixes and under-the-hood improvements. Most likely, it resolves most of the issues that have been reported by developers since the sixth Beta build of the operating system.

We will write a separate article for Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan Public Beta 5 with detailed installation instructions as soon as it is released.
