Apple Releases macOS Monterey 12.3.1 With Bluetooth and Display Fixes

[rippley5150]

On an unsupported, but hacked to run Monterrey MBP 2012 retina - update available and updating. For both 2021 M1 MAX MBP and 2019 16" MBP i9 - not yet available in California.

On unsupported late 2013 15' MBP. Updated with no issues thus far.

for everyone having trouble seeing the update- if you're running any version of Big Sur or Monterey previous to 12.3 softwareupdate in macos can go into a state where it stops checking for updates, even using the terminal command. it will stay in this state across reboots.
run this in terminal, then quit and re-check for updates using either system preferences or terminal:
sudo launchctl kickstart -k system/com.apple.softwareupdated

separate from all of that the update may have been pulled, I'm not seeing it on any of my macs.

THIS WORKED! Updating now.

It's live for me (m1 max)

Looks like 12.3.1 is a device-specific update.

Nope, just showed up for my 2019 Intel MBP!

No update for my MacBook M1 Pro Max 16" and Mac Mini M1.

The update is available for all my IOS devices but not for Macs, strange.

Showing on both machines right now

This helped. I can now download the update. Thanks!
Edit: It might have been a coincidence. My other two Macs got the update without killing the process.

I have to say these Apple OSes are starting to work really well on my devices... Especially things like AirDrop, Universal Control etc. (stuff that works with other Apple stuff) are now much smoother than a few years ago...

 

[Codeseven]

Well good, I assume this will fix my USB C to 2018 Mac Mini connected monitor from at times momentarily inexplicably blacking out (as if it came unplugged) only to come back on again.

 

[Lasermoon]

Just updated my 27" iMac 2019, from 12.3 to 12.3.1 now it won't boot up, press the power button keeps shutting down?

Unplugged everything, including the power cable, left it for 2 mins, plugged the power cable in now it boots up? Phew!

Just showed up at 1:25 PM West coast for M1 MAX PRO 16"

Worked for me!

Looks like 12.3.1 is a device-specific update.

It isn't. It just showed up for me on a bunch of Macs, both Intel and Apple Silicon.

finally getting it in the UK on my 14 Pro

Dod it fit the prablems with hte spill chalker, Otto Carrot keeeps chaingging mi wordss.

 

[bsbeamer]

Now showing on 2019 Intel MBP16,1 that was not showing earlier.

 

[Alwis]

Where are you looking exactly that you don't see HFS (Apple Extended) as an option?

Interesting! The last time I bought a new external drive was in the last autumn andI am sure, that there was no option to format it in HFS, otherwise I would not have selectec APFS for a spinning drive.

Will check this tomorrow.

 

[tmaxxtigger]

Does this fix the GPU issues people have been having with AMD 5000 and 6000 series cards (performance was halved in 12.3)

Yes it does, 6900XT working like it did before!

 

[TVreporter]

Is it wrong that I just want to stay on Big Sur which has been surprisingly solid for my 2019 iMac? What am I missing out with Monterey — aside from more bugs!?

 

[nt5672]

Is it only for certain Macs?

Not seeing it yet on my M1 Mac Mini in the UK.... Though watch it appear now I've posted this.....

No, but if you have criticized Apple here in the MacRumors forum, they probably put you on the wait list.

 

[rungxanh2901]

Showed up to me in Canada too. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

 

[Huw Price]

Not in UK yet.

Now in UK.
