Anyone else finding 10.14.6 won't install?

[philstubbington]

Running a MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2012), and the update is showing in system preferences (I subsequently downloaded it from the Apple website).

It'll install, reboot and then the progress bar never gets beyond about 10%. A cold boot seems to fix it, other than I'm still at 10.14.5.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Phil

Back up your files.

Download the FULL 6.05gb installer ( " How to . ." ) link below )

( note : The current 10.14.6 installer is 6.05gb - the original full installer was 6.05 gb. )

What a pain I think I might skip it for now......

Mojave 10.14.6 ( full 6.05gb installer ) - clean install of everything - no issues at all here. Using it to type this.

... but hasn't that meant a full backup and restore?

It does, and it's generally totally unnecessary.

Yes .. "generally". . . until .. . the dreaded KP or whatever rears it's head.

Every two years . . . no sweat.

I subsequently downloaded it from the Apple website

Have you tried with the Combo Update? https://support.apple.com/kb/DL2010

Downloaded it yesterday. As long as it doesn’t come up with a “you must backup everything or lose it forever” message I might be brave enough to install it

Patience is clearly a virtue

I've had the failed upgrade to 10.14.6 every day now until today, now the incremental update seems to have gone through without a hitch.

Now to fix some pesky issues with iOS on the family iPhones and iPads. Reminders seems the worst
