Monterey 12.1 last update / no updates found

Dear All,

I own a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) which should be able to get the latest macOS.

Currently version 12.1 is installed. When I look for updates I get

"Your Mac is up to date - macOS Monterey 12.1 (21c52)"

The issue is that we are using on our company notebooks the FortiClient ZTNA secure solution. This secure client is now complaining that 12.1 has security risks and it should be upgraded to 12.2.1

Other notebooks are already updated. Any idea why my MacBook doesn't find an update ?

Kind regards

Hans

Software Update found the following full installers:

* Title: macOS Monterey, Version: 12.3, Size: 12222979494K, Build: 21E230

In this case you can initiate the download, copy and paste:

sudo softwareupdate --fetch-full-installer --full-installer-version 12.3

When the download is complete it will be sitting in your Applications folder "Install macOS Monterey.app"

You can launch it from there like an other applications; it will remove itself when complete.

Try starting the update using the command line, this will bypass the

secure token/owner check from the Software Update pref pane:

You can download the Installers from Apple directly from the Terminal App. copy and paste:

sudo softwareupdate -i -a -R

-i Install

-a All appropriate updates

-R Automatically restart (or shut down) if required to complete installation)
