I just purchased a 2021 MacBook Pro m1 pro and just need to update from 12.7.1 to 13.5 osx. Specifically for running protools and Logic Pro. I was able to update one version of Monterey but now its only giving me the option to update to the latest osx (Sonoma) which I don't want. Thanks!
I expect the Avid advice is out of date.
It is always best to apply the latest updates to any version of MacOS you decide to install, because that will have all the fixes added.
If you have another external drive available, you could install it there and try it out without clobbering your existing macOS

By default, the App Store hides all but the latest version of macOS. You can get Ventura by using the link in this Support article:

You might get the latest version of Ventura (13.6.1) – not specifically 13.5.
I just came across this and it gave me some peace about the upgrade to 13.6.1 & even 13.6.2 with Avid Pro Tools. The post is from yesterday 11/29/23 so it’s current.
Hi, Thank you for the reply. So it looks like I could do the upgrade using the App Store, however it’s only giving me the option of going to macOS 13.6.1
I was hoping to stay at 13.5 as recommended by Avid for running Protools. Hopefully it’s not an issue since it’s so close. Do you know if there is way to upgrade specifically to 13.5? Thanks again!
see if you can get it direct from this article.
if you have [any version of] MacOS running, skip the section on using (much more limited) Recovery.

Appreciate your help. I’ll try the upgrade in the next couple days. 👍🏼
Please let Readers know your results -- the good, the bad, and the ugly.
