MacOS Big Sur update Failed "An error occurred while installing the selected updates." I've downloaded the update, and suddenly this message appeared. I've tried to restart my machine several time, still the same problem. I've tried to shutdown, wait for some minutes, and when I try again, I've got the same behavior! People say that the Beta version was so stable! So, what's going on with the release? Any help on how to fix this issue?

I am using macOS Catalina Beta and can't get out of it, help! I am running macOS Catalina Beta 10.15.1 on my desktop and can't change to Catalina, to then update to Big Sur. There is nothing at the bottom of my wheel (System Preferences > Software Update) that I can click on that says details, like others have said. And when I go to the apple store and type in macOS Catalina to update to, it's not there. I typed in Big Sur and it said the update is not available, even though I already updated my MacBook Air with it. I just want out of Beta mode but can't figure it out. Help!

macOS Big Sur download error Hi. I recently opted out of the macOS Beta Program, and have now received the 11.3.1 update. However, the update always downloads to 486.0 MB, and then freezes, sometimes cancelling and blaming a network issue as the problem, despite the internet connection working completely fine. Is there any way to fix this?
