Apple Releases macOS Monterey 12.2 With Safari Vulnerability Fix

It's silly to actually think TestUFO matters on whether pages scroll at 120hz or not. 120hz is enabled in 12.2 and has been since beta 1. Using testufo as a metric does not matter on apple devices especially when iphones and ipads are 120hz and testufo shows 60.

It’s a big deal and very important. This is directly from Apple. 👇

In case it's not clear, Big Sur 11.6.3 alone does not fix the Safari vulnerability. I'm guessing we'll have to wait for Safari 15.3 to show up in Software Update for those on Big Sur.
Mistake? The Safari Developer Technology encompassing 120 Hz scrolling is an alpha release. Better to be safe than sorry with Safari.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
Exactly this, scrolling is definitely 120Hz on the included 15.3 version of Safari in macOS 12.2.
Yeah they didn't fix the bug. Unbelievable. It makes apple music almost unusable. Guessing it might just be a bug for people who download their own music.

My M1 mini showed the update available (I have 12.1) and shortly thereafter showed a box that said the updates have changed and it is no longer available. Did Apple pull the update off the servers?
UPDATE: 2 min later it is showing again.

Update to 12.2 is now complete took at least 45 minutes on 16" Macbook M1 Pro. Testing throughout the day and will send results when available..

What I don't understand is why AppKit and not SwiftUI? Seems like Apple's been pushing SwiftUI, partially because of how it helps simplify porting between macOS, iOS, and iPadOS. However, I've heard that SwiftUI just calls AppKit/UIKit, and AppKit has features that SwiftUI. I'm not much of a developer, so I'm not sure.
Thats normal. The difference between 21D48 and 21D49 is just a public release. For M1 base computers you have the same System Firmware 7429.81.3
Probably early next week you'll see the first beta for the next version.
If this his just a bugfix release, I really wish it would have been called 12.1.1. I like X.Y.Z version numbering where X upgrades are a major overhaul of the entire app/OS (like Mac OS 7 > 8, 8 > X). Y upgrades are many new features, but still fairly much the same (like many of the Mac OS X releases). Z updates are just bug fix releases.
Yes, it never gets boring being a beta tester.Thats normal. The difference between 21D48 and 21D49 is just a public release. For M1 base computers you have the same System Firmware 7429.81.3

If you are having difficulty trying to install 21D49 over the top of 21D48 via the software update preference pane you can bypass it and use the full installer instead.
Build 21D49 is associated with Product ID 002-57041 and from this information you can find the direct link to the full installer and it is at http://swcdn.apple.com/content/down...4m5kuk3ool1g55vgplpmkwqv/InstallAssistant.pkg . You can see that the Product ID is part of this link. Just note that this is a much bigger download than the delta updates that typically come in the software update preference pane.
You can also use it to make a bootable USB for Monterey 12.2. I made a thread on this topic here: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/make-a-monterey-bootable-usb-installer.2299740/

There is no change from last year. These current releases incorporating improvements (native Apple Music) bug fixes, are always 12.1 to 12.2. A last minute change can result in something like 12.0 becoming 12.0.1.
Yes of course, in fact once broken, forcing it to reindex by re-adding/removing folders does nothing sadly, thanks though. It only fixes when rebooting and after a few hours of usage it breaks again.
Tried disabling / enabling it via terminal also but no luck. I had to change security policy management to run paragon NTFS, read somewhere it could be related to that, but I can't wipe it yet as to test if it's that. Either way I hope this update resolves it.
searching artists with music app is a lot faster im happy, before I had to click it twice to search
12.13 GB! I had the RC beta on there, turned it off, so I'd get this... might be why it's over 12 GB.
I would love to try it if they would get my 14 MBP here sometime soon.Now you can try the MacOS 12.2 (21D49) and see if it fixed what you didn't like. For me this release is very stable.
Comparably this 12.2 beta cycle only had a single RC compared to last year's Big Sur 11.2 with three RC releases.
Can you please let us know what is the Music app exact version with this release? I’m wondering if it’s the same as in the RC.
