Clean install macOS Big Sur and then try again.

I tried bottom troubleshooting to fix the issue. But if anyone else likes to worry about it, I am OK with that too.Īs to installing any version of macOS older than Big Sur and Monterrey, there are instructions in numerous threads on how to do that at AskWoody.I try to install macOS 12 on my MacBook Pro, but unfortunately, macOS Monterey beta 1 won’t install. I think the policy to follow is to relax and forget about it. No idea if it comes back, my guess is that it will. One always can delete the app by trashing it, as one would trash any other thing in a directory (“folder”). If you don’t launch that application yourself, directly, or through “Software Update” in “System Preferences”, nothing will happen. No one is being tricked, as far as I know (including myself), with (for example) a pop up announcing how great is Monterey that, when clicking on the “x” to close it, actually sends a signal to begin installing Monterey (as MS sneakily did to force Windows 10 to be installed, back when Win 10 first came out). The mere presence of this application in one’s Mac is not making the installing, in this case, of Monterey mandatory. This is quite as it has been, since I was running Sierra in 2017: once it comes out, usually in October, the notification that one can install the latest version of macOS is present there, waiting for me to download and install it when and if I choose to do so, as I have the Mac set to”notify me of any updates, but do not install them until I say so” (or words to this effect). It is also the update to software in-wait I have been finding for several months by now when using the “looking for updates” application that has a gray icon that looks like a cog within a cog. I also have the “install macOS Monterey” application in my Intel Mac’s “Apps” directory, as revealed by using Finder to look for it.

12 GB too! Good thing bandwidth and storage space isn’t an issue, but what if it was? A 12 GB download without my permission!Ĭan I simply move the “Install macOS Monterey” app into the trash, and still download and install Monterey later? I’ll upgrade to Monterey eventually-I just want to do it on MY terms. I was most certainly not looking at updates at that time, so I have no idea why Apple has decided to silently download the Monterey installer onto my Mac. Today, I noticed the “Install macOS Monterey” app was downloaded to my Mac, with a last modified date of 1:57 PM. The Mac is set to automatically check for updates, but it is not set to install updates automatically (“Download new updates when available” is deselected). I am currently on macOS Big Sur 11.6.2, and plan to stay until at least macOS Monterey 12.2 comes out and some of my programs are updated to resolve issues under Monterey. I am running an early-2020 13-inch MacBook Pro with four ThunderBolt 3 ports and an Intel processor (not Apple silicon).
