Nobody who knows this can answer here.I have macOs Ventura 13.0 (22A380) installed and I am wondering if will this be what is released today as the first non-beta? Or will I get a prompt for an update?
Thanks, nothing here yet, still says, "Your Mac is up to date - macOS Monterey 12.6Just showed up for me, 11:10 MDT
I'm fairly new to macOS, did you use this command to check from terminal?Installing now from Terminal. I'm in Sweden.
softwareupdate -l
softwareupdate -i 'macOS Ventura 13.0-22A380'
softwareupdate -d 'macOS Ventura 13.0-22A380'
Thanks a bunch, says "No new software available".The officially released version is macOS Ventura 13.0-22A380.
From the Terminal you can list the available updates with

or you can download it only withCode:softwareupdate -i 'macOS Ventura 13.0-22A380'
Code:softwareupdate -d 'macOS Ventura 13.0-22A380'
Thanks a bunch, says "No new software available".
sudo softwareupdate --background
If you mean by Internet Recovery (or something similar) every time I have tried that it pulls down the OS the machine was released with.That worked, had to do it a few times (server traffic?). Thanks again.
If I wipe the drive and do a clean install, will it pull Ventura now?
Yeah, that's what I meant, now that you mention it, I think I read that somewhere else before.If you mean by Internet Recovery (or something similar) every time I have tried that it pulls down the OS the machine was released with.
I think you'd have to make a bootable USB or something with Ventura on it to go straight to Ventura with a clean install. But I could be wrong.
Thanks, downloading now, but super slow even on 1GB fiber.I find the best way to install is to:
- Download the latest OS
- Create a new bootable USB installer
- Check that your Apple ID password is working (without it you won't be able to reinstall your apps)
- Sign out of macOS and any licensed apps that you have.
- This is to ensure that install of macOS does not count towards any licensed copies of the software you have i.e. Apple Music, MS Office etc.
- Back up everything
- Make sure you have passwords and instructions for setting up accounts such as email and installed software
- Check that you have backed up everything
- Have you really backed up everything?
- Check that you have really backed up everything
- Follow the instructions in the above article to do a clean install
- Reinstall everything
- Best of luck
Thanks!! That means I'm up to date having beta already installed. I get to skip the server traffic jam. I'm glad I installed the beta already.The officially released version is macOS Ventura 13.0-22A380.
