smb big sur

Hello. I have a MacBook Air 2020 and I got my Big Sur update just recently. I tried to update it but my administration blocked the update. They unblocked the update but it is not showing up. I have tried to manually search for new updates but the Big Sur update does not show. Could someone help me find it or download it?

We have the mac mini with Big Sur / ARM and wanted to update it. However: softwareupdate -l Software Update ToolFinding available software The operation couldn't be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1012.) And, we also used System Preferences > Software Update and it says: Unable to check for updates and then no available updates found, please try again later. We're having stability issues and wanted to update. We're running: Darwin macarm.local 20.0.0 Darwin Kernel Version 20.0.0: Sun Jun 14 21:36:36 PDT 2020; root:Bridge_xnu-7090.111.5.2~1/RELEASE_ARM64_T8020 arm64

Hi, I've got Big Sur beta installed but have come across a major issue, as in when I attach either an EX. HD or even an USB as soon as I double click on the icon to open the laptop crashes, I have even tried both USB ports and several cables and EX.HD's, I get the same problem which doesn't really help as I now can't attach my eX.HD with my Time Machine Back-up. So the question is, I saved the Installer for Big Sur, I'm thinking of re-installing it, just to see if this fixes the problem , any comments here as to whether or not this is a good idea ? Advice please. Steve ( UK )

Dreamweaver on Big Sur seems to run and upload CSS to my sites fine, but it crashes immediately when I try to add a new site. Menu Site > New Site or choosing Edit Sites and clicking New crashes to Desktop every time. Any workarounds?

Hi, Anyone else not a big fan of the new Spotlight UI in macOS Big Sur Beta? I found the previous UI a lot more resourceful and information-rich. I know it is still accessible but it's an unnecessary additional click (or option-enter to jump right to it). Certainly posting this under Feedback Assistant as well but was curious what people thought and if this new UI is better at anything than the previous one.

Hi All, We met a kernel panic on Big Sur. Any one met similar issue?Is it about bluetooth? Should I disable bluetooth to avoid this? Or is it related to system extension?There should be no 3rd party kext on Big Sur now. System panic with bluetoothd before shutdown. macOSPanicString : panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff800b2bf424): Zone element 0xffffff93775a5000 was modified after free for zone kext.kalloc.4096: Expected element to be cleared@/AppleInternal/BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/xnu/xnu-7195.50.7/osfmk/kern/zalloc.c:1968 Backtrace (CPU 0), Frame : Return Address 0xffffffb0ce013420 : 0xffffff800aabc66d 0xffffffb0ce013470 : 0xffffff800abff073 0xffffffb0ce0134b0 : 0xffffff800abef6aa 0xffffffb0ce013500 : 0xffffff800aa61a2f 0xffffffb0ce013520 : 0xffffff800aabbf0d 0xffffffb0ce013640 : 0xffffff800aabc1f8 0xffffffb0ce0136b0 : 0xffffff800b2bee1a 0xffffffb0ce013720 : 0xffffff800b2bf424 0xffffffb0ce013730 : 0xffffff800ab17fca 0xffffffb0ce013760 : 0xffffff800ab191f2 0

After I had issues to download the Big Sur, later I managed to install but the unthinkable happened. My Mac became very slow to load just like one said (Windows Style). After login, it takes too long to reach the desktop, then you have to wait for the wallpaper to appear and after it is visible the upper taskbar will start displaying the icons one by one. Furthermore, to open any app such as the browser or Word, it takes ages. Hope this will be fixed soon since there are a lot of users saying the same thing. iMAC Retina 5K 2019 CPU 3.6 GHz 8-core Intel core i9 40 GB 2667 Mhz DDR4 Radeon Pro 580x 8GB

Hi, I am trying to update my AppKit app for Big Sur, and I'm struggling to figure out how to make the toolbar of my app's window to have the same translucency and background as I see in other apps, like Safari and the Apple Developer app. In my main storyboard, I have created a SplitView-with-Sidebar scene, made the window 'Full Size Content View' and added some toolbar items. If I leave it at that, then the toolbar works as expected. However, if I set the window's titleVisibility to 'NSWindowTitleHidden' (because it looks better), then the translucent effect goes away, and the toolbar has a stark white background. Is there any way to keep the title hidden but also keep the same translucency effect / background for the toolbar? Again, the Safari and Apple Developer apps are good examples of this. Thanks.

Does anyone have a suggestion for adding a text field to a window's toolbar that'll resize with the window? Before you say use an NSSearchField, I don't want the search and cancel buttons displayed and AFAIK, you can't hide those buttons in older versions of macOS which I still have to support. Also, I want the toolbar item to resize with the window. I've tried putting using an NSTextField as a custom view for an NSToolbarItem but for some reason, the text field appears a few pixels shorter and all text within it get cropped vertically. I filed a bug report during the Big Sur beta but got no response.

Hi, I'm debugging my app on an Apple Developer Transition Kit running Big Sur Beta 8 I have a NSToolbarItem.Identifier.space in my Toolbar, and when I hover over it, it changes color......this is news to me. Previously on Catalina, you would get zero interaction with this. Is there anyway to stop it having a rollover state? Thanks Chris

I've updated to Big Sur from Catalina and I'm having trouble when connecting to WiFi networks. At first no network appeared and now even though it has connected silently to my usual network, it is showing as no connected, but internet actually works. Anyone having this kind of problems so far? I haven't seen anything related on the forums nor the release notes.

I just updated my MacBook Pro to Big Sur and my external SSD ejects itself not long after loading onto the desktop. I'm getting a message that says, 'Eject Extreme SSD before disconnecting or turning it toff' and the SSD ejects. Can't do anything with it. I read that Catalina had the same bug which was fixed but wasn't fixed for Big Sur. Any help would be appreciated. I have all my client work on the ExSSD.

Since updating to Big Sur my imac is almost a brick. Horrible load times, video editing for my business is almost impossible, and the computer went from starting up in less than 10 seconds to taking 6 minutes.

i cant get past the activate My mac screen on Big SUr. Is this because my uuid isnt in the portal? is there any way to get out of this screen to bot back into Catalina? it wont let me use my bootable Catalina USB,
