Apple Releases macOS Monterey 12.2 With Safari Vulnerability Fix

[destroyer01]

Not showing up on 16" MacBook Pro M1 Pro either, but iPhone 13 Pro Max is updating now...

 

[hagjohn]

Nope. It is 21D49 whereas the RC was 21D48.

I have the beta and I'm not seeing the release. Yes, I removed the beta profile.

2.75 GB update from 12.1 on the 14" M1 Max in the Netherlands.

happy upgrading ... might upgrade my iMac from Big Sur with this one ...

That’s my intention as well, I’m planning to update my 2014 Mac mini (one of the the oldest devices supported by Monterey) with 12.2, if the general consensus agrees that it is already stable enough.

Guys do you have it?

I don't have it yet

Does anyone have it?

Is the update showing?

Mine isn't showing..

Lmao

 

[Danfango]

I did the check for updates thing and it said there were no updates, resulting in the face on my avatar.

Then 5 minutes later it says there is one!

It just showed up on my M1 MBA running 12.2 RC.

 

[AmazingTechGeek]

12.2 finally appeared for my 16.2 MacBook Pro!

Now it’s showing

With beta version installs, is it possible to move seamlessly back to the standard public version without having to clean install or lose in app data etc?

 

[Orizaba]

Showing now on M1 Mac mini

 

[Lioness~]

Time for Apple party ?
Downloading on all devices here.

I hope this fixes spotlight, it's been unusable for us.

Depends On what you’re moving from and to.
Going from 12.2 beta to 12.2 public release is a relatively seamless process.
However, going from something like 12.2 beta back to 12.1 public is a lot more complicated

 

[TrancyGoose]

Got it!

 

[headlessmike]

Should come with the AppKit version of Apple Music

It is there

I’m sure you’re right, but having tested the 12.2 betas I never noticed any difference in Apple Music compared to my other machines running 12.1.

Tried this? https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201716

 

[TrancyGoose]

So wait, no new Music app?

Does anyone know if this even affects Safari 14?

Okay cool thx. I was thinking about ease of migration from a current beta to public release ("forwards") rather than current beta to current public release ("backwards").

I don't really understand why there's so much fuzz about Safari? Like, did you all buy a $4000 M1 Max so you can watch Safari scroll at 120 Herz? Why is it so important?

I’ve been running the beta on my MBA M1 for over 6 months with no stability issues whatsoever, only bug I experienced was touchpad sensitivity one that was fixed a month or so ago

 

[coolfactor]

I thought 12.2 was bringing a fully native music app? My most anticipated software release ever, solely to fix the Apple Music bug that causes the screen to jump around your playlist every time you edit, rate or delete a song.

Strange that they'd release a 12.2 minor release instead of a 12.1.X bugfix release.

it is like when you pay that amount of cash for a laptop, especially from apple, M1...anyway, you want to benefit from everything that machine has to offer, in this case, 120hz scrolling. They didn't put the option by mistake though

No the new Music app is there.
It’s just that all the changes are in the way the app was built, not the user interface.
So the most you’ll notice is that it might be a little bit more snappy here and there, but in terms of the regular user experience, no differences
