Hello, Thank you all for responding to my email and confirming the strange behavior. Note that I said "strange behavior," and not bug. In my opinion, it's not a bug, but a strange behavior. A strange behavior which has never happened in the past. Here's also my opinion on Apple's beta test and what not. I agree that everything is a work in progress. I also agree that when something as complicated as an operating system, it is almost impossible to be completely bug free. However, Apple has a dedicated Accessibility team. They also have senior engineers who answer calls helping end users with accessibility issues. I've also met people, blind and not, who are private beta testers for VoiceOver and Zoom. With all this in place, it seems so impossible for something as obvious as an incorrect status bar item to slip through without being discovered. It is almost impossible to test a braille display without seeing this issue. Of course private beta testers are just that, private, certain select people, and who probably are not as thorough as people who work for Apple. All we can do is report it as a new issue and hope Apple will add it to their growing list of bugs to fix. I also agree that the missing email in the inbox is still there. I thought I'm the only person having this issue. I also have a new bug in Yosemite after updating to 10.10.3. I will check into that further before I report it to Apple.
