After seeding the first Public Beta of iOS 11 to iPhone, iPad and iPod touch owners around the globe, Apple now releases the first Public Beta builds of its upcoming macOS High Sierra 10.13 operating system.

We've already taught you guys how to install the iOS 11 Public Beta release of your eligible iPhone, iPad or iPod touch devices, and the time has come for you to learn how to update your Mac's operating system to the macOS High Sierra 10.13 Public Beta release, that if you want to install a Beta software on your computer, of course.

Apple has just released the first Public Beta of the macOS High Sierra 10.13 to public beta testers, which means that anyone can install and test drive the upcoming operating system without an Apple Developer account. So if you want to jump on the Public Beta testing bandwagon, follow the instructions below.

How to install macOS 10.13 Public Beta

Before anything else, we have to warn you guys that this is a Beta quality software and you should not install it on your Mac if you want to have a stable experience. Also, make sure that you have a current backup of all the important files from your computer before attempting to update the operating system to a new major version.

To install the first macOS High Sierra 10.13 Public Beta, you need to visit to the Apple Beta Software Program website on your Mac, sign in with the Apple ID that you're using right now, and then enroll your Mac into the Apple Public Beta program for macOS by clicking on the "enroll your Mac" link in the "Getting Started" section.

You will be automatically redirected to a web page where you must follow some steps that are required for installing macOS High Sierra 10.13 Public Beta. For example, you'll have to click the "Download the macOS High Sierra Public Beta" button, which will open the Mac App Store application to activate your redemption code.

The installation will continue via the Mac App Store, and the installer will begin to download in the background. As it has over 6GB in size, you'll have to wait a while before it's ready for installation, but that always depends on the speed of your Internet connection.

When the download progress hits 100%, the macOS High Sierra installer will open, and all you have to do now is to follow the steps on the installation wizard to install the operating system on your Mac, which will be restarted a few times during the installation. That's it, when new Public Betas are out, you'll receive them via the Mac App Store.
