Apple Releases macOS Monterey 12.3.1 With Bluetooth and Display Fixes

[Station Grey]

Still no update here in Italy MacBook Pro 14...


I do not think is about fear of missing out, it's more about letting people know when and where it is available....wich is the purpose of this thread.

But it doesn't work like that, so is meaningless.

Is this update for M1 macs only? I manually hit the update icon in System Preferences and get this - not even 12.3! This is on a Intel Mac Mini.

No. I have gotten the update on an Intel and M1 Mac Mini.

 

[julesme]

Still no update available for me - 14" Macbook Pro

Just a slower then usually rollout I guess
I've usually had the updates by now

 

[Station Grey]

I give up

 

[mxrider88]

Does it fix the AirPods auto-connect mess?

Forget it….
This will remain pure misleading advertising. It has never worked and I assume it will never work.

No updates yet

 

[petvas]

Still nothing here for my Mac Studio and 14" MBP.

Audio popping noise still present, since 2016, unbelievable 🤣

Yet we are here commenting it.

Meaningless or not, I think there's nothing bad about people discussing this update release schedule.

You can skip comments you do not like, I understand it can be annoying.

Have you had any trouble getting this tool to work reliably? The download often hangs, and if it does bother to finish sometimes it won't install or reboot the machine with the -R option.

It does work for me without issues on my 14" I have an alias of update with it to be quick now

Same here. I'd be curious to hear an explanation of why one of my Macs got it but not the other since they're on the same network. Doesn't make much sense to me even if it is a slow rollout.

 

[mattburley7]

maybe they are having server issues and that is why none of us have the update yet

I think 12.3 can no longer be downloaded via Software Update.

E.g. you should be getting 12.3.1 when it is available.

"sudo softwareupdate -laiR --force --verbose" on repeat on my M1 Mac mini and M1 Pro MacBook Pro 14-inch. Nothing here in Norway thus far.

 

[CMoore515]

Nothing on 16" M1 Pro MBP yet

Spinners. Been formatted as APFS for at least 2, maybe 3 years with no issues hooked to the former main (Intel iMac) machine.

Having worked through countless possibilities, the only one left that I think I can try is to reformat with Monterey. However, I've been reluctant to try that because I don't want to potentially lose the drives if it randomly ejects during the formatting process. I don't trust it to stay connected long enough to reformat.

Box is an OWC dual bay, Hardware-selected RAID, set to RAID 0. I think it was a process of selecting RAID-0 on the box, install 2 drives and then use Disk Utlity to format it. Been super stable for a couple of years with none of this unexpected eject stuff. Now I would not bet much on a connection of even 3-4 hours... unless I take it and same cable back to an Intel Mac and then it is as stable as it has been.

Curious. Did you say what year iMac and your interconnect? I'm assuming TB2, but, you know. I've had TB cables go bonkers - might be worth getting another, blowing out the ports on the iMac and RAID, and do a little stress test.

We're not Friday yet.

Nothing on 16" M1 Pro MBP yet

Same. The rollout is taking a *lot* longer than usual.

 

[mattburley7]

Have to leave for a couple hours maybe it will be available once I return

 

[robd003]

Does anyone have a direct link to the 12.3.1 update? I've tried for 3 hours to get it using "software update -l" but it's always returning no new updates...

Cool more bug fixes for 12.3, especially concerning external displays won’t turn on issues. Build 21E258

This isn’t unique to Apple. My HP system has the same issue and it occurs far more times than on my Mac. Yes it’s on latest Windows 10 and drivers.

does it fix all the problems it created with adobe? that's what I care about

It does and extra 100% performance.
