I proceeded to install macOS Ventura 13.5.1 edit download it and started the install but now it is hung at about 19 minutes remaining. How can I install this version as I had a 13.5 on my iMac and it was running fine. It appears this upgrade along with my trying to install has caused problems ! Any and all assistance is appreciated. Thanks.
The Count Dow clock may pause for extended period of time as it verifies all the bits and pieces of data.
I have seen it pause for may 20 minutes before it starts again one to pause at the 5 minute mark.

If it still does not finish.
1 - Restart in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.
2 - Safe Mode will also eliminate Third Party Software, extensions and drivers from loading. It will only load the Minimum amount of Core Apple Processes to allow the the computer to function at a reduced Level of Performance
3 - Does the issue present in this mode ?

How long has this been hanging there? Try going out for a cup of coffee or something. Maybe it is just taking longer.
Thanks, I will once again try to install Ventura overnight.
I will try to do the install once again this evening and see if it works. Thanks.
