title: How can I publish a beta in Google Play while my app is still in Timed publishing?
body: <p>I have an app that's close to launch. In prep for this, I've put it into production with "Timed publishing". It's ready to go, all I have to do now is click "Go Live".</p>
  
  <p>However, I have a bug fix and I want to put out a beta for it now, before I'm ready to release the app to the world at large.</p>
  
  <p>I've managed to upload the beta, but how can I release it to my beta testers through the store. Previously when I've played with Timed publishing, it didn't actually go out to the Beta testers until I clicked "Go Live".</p>
  
  <p>I don't want to do that, because I'm not ready for my app to be made public at all, and I'm afraid it will go anyway.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried switching to Advanced mode and Deactivating the version in production right now; however, it won't let me save. It complains <code>The application could not be saved. Please check the form for errors.</code> But don't see anything on the form that looks like an error.</p>
  
  <p>How can I do this, or what should I be looking for to find the error?</p>
