I am on Catalina 10.15.3 and do not want to move to Big Sur just yet. Software Update does have the option to update to Big Sur but I am unable to determine how to do just a minor point update. How do I install the latest update of Catalina?
Update From a comment by @jefe2000 I am trying the command line version and it seems promising.
$/usr/sbin/softwareupdate -l
Software Update Tool
Finding available software
Software Update found the following new or updated software:
* Label: macOS Catalina 10.15.7 Update-
Title: macOS Catalina 10.15.7 Update, Version: , Size: 5099042K, Recommended: YES, Action: restart,
But what is the actual label? I was unable to get this to work and have created a separate question for it. Unable to install an update via the softwareupdate command line tool
해결책
Download and install the Catalina 10.15.7 Combo Update from Apple.
다른 팁
The command line version of the macOS software update — /usr/sbin/softwareupdate
— has the capability to ignore specified updates. The --ignore
command line option performs the functionality.
From the sofwareupdate
man page:
--ignore identifier ... Manages the per-machine list of ignored updates. The identifier is the first part of the item name (before the dash and version number) that is shown by --list.
Using this, you could tell the software updater to ignore the Big Sur updates and install any other available updates.
