Move from Big Sur to Monterey? - RAMd®d - 02-20-2023
Ventura seems to be giving a lot of you and others, fits.
My M1 MBA is on Big Sur and I'm thinking of taking it to Monterey for the Hidden Mail feature.
Any caveats to consider?
I use Hidden Mail a lot, but it's a bit of a hassle using on my 'Phone (12 mini) so I want at least one Mac to be capable of using it.
My iPad mini 5, once updated, can use it, but it won't be much of an improvement, if any.

I say go for Ventura.
The changes are not bad, just… different.
Good brain workout.

I just did BS to Monty yesterday. I'm on a 2018 Intel mini.
My buddy is a head Pro Tools tech at a big post house. He said stay with Monty for now for Pro Tools. For anything else, that may differ.
Only issue I had was that Photos wouldn't launch.
I ran DFA and Onyx and all seems to be OK.
My podcast client auto updated both his M1 minis to Venty, I've had a couple issues with it an iMovie, memory leaks, that I haven't tracked down yet.

I upgraded from BS to Monterey on my M1 mini when I was having problems with a particular application. It went as smooth as you-know-what through a goose - upgrade recommended.
As mentioned here before, I upgraded to my Apple Studio when I did primary because I was assured of being able to run Monterey instead of being forced to run Ventura.
You are wise to stay away from Ventura.

Stoopid me thought literally. Me thinking you've moved up in the world.

LOL!
That would be nice, down in Monterey.

I love both Big Sur and Monterey, though Big Sur is a bit remote, especially with those landslides blocking the road.

But when you're of a retiring age, it's ok to be a bit remote. Either way, you're living in the finest landscapes of what California has to offer.

M'nrey was pretty awesome, then I accidentally upgraded ye olde M1 MBA to Ventura, and have been wishing it'd stayed a few hundred miles further up PCH ever since. Do you know the way to Monterey.... hey there's a catchy tune in there somewhere....
Monterey, or whatever comes after Ventura (hopefully).

Having issues with Music. When I sort by title it only goes as far as "G".
All other songs are missing from the library.
But all Artists and album names are there.
Tried a pram reset and cleared the cache of Music, n/c.
Small yet annoying.
