Hi! My iMac is stuck trying to install Monterey at restart. The status bar fills, screen goes black, then the status bar starts up again. It gives a "time remaining" update with each bar. It's been going for bout an hour. Advice?
Suggestion - power down by any means including the Power Botton.
Disconnect all external devices
Connect to Charger if a laptop
Power up in Safe Mode . This mode will do a Repair Disk, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts, so the loading will be slow - normal.
It may or may not allow the upgrade process to complete and hopefully successfully.
