Q - " So I've been trying to update my MacBook Pro "
A - Have to ask the question, Update implicitly mean an older version os mcOS 13 Ventura is already installed on this computer.
A - Is that correct ? and if so, exactly what version of Ventura is presently installed ?
A - An upGrade would be moving from an older version than Ventura to the new Ventura
A - Should this be the case for this computer, exactly what version of macOS is installed at this time ?
