Re: Updating macOS Ventura v13.6.9 to v13.7 ...

So I tried again yesterday morning, but this time I didn't lock my
session since I was near by. It upgraded successfully.

However, I ran into a new issue. Every time I reboot and relog into an
macOS account, it said I didn't shut down properly and gave me an option
to report to Apple with this crash dump (copied and pasted its texts,
and uploaded to
https://zimage.com/~ant/temp/macOSventura13.7afterRebootAndLoggingIn.txt).
Panic with NVME. That sounded bad. So, I tried shutting down MBP and
powering it back up. No more crashes. That was scary. I hope it was a
hiccup. Yes, there are back ups.

Updating macOS Ventura v13.6.9 to v13.7 got stuck when I was out. :/
Basically, I told 13" Intel 2020 MBP's macOS to update its Safari and
macOS Ventura to v13.7 while I was out since it takes a while to
download, prepare, upgrade, and finish. I came home and MBP was
asleep. I thought it was done so I woke it up and the screen blinked
and showed me

(photo). I waited for 15 minutes, and it was still there at the same
status. MBP wasn't even warm so it's not doing anything I think.
Usually, upgrades makes MBP warm/hot. :(

So, I held the power button to force a shut off, booted back up, but
nothing. I tried again without power AC, monitor, and 3.5mm speaker
cable. Now, it worked. That scared me. I was able to boot up and log
into macOS Ventura v13.6.9.

So, should I try again since I never had this issue before? :/ Thank you
for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)
