“smb big sur”

When trying to update to Big Sur 11.2.1 i receive the following message: An error occurred while downloading the selected updates. Please check your internet connection and try again. There is no problem with my internet connection. I purchased this MacBookPro about a week ago, so I'm sure there isn't a space issue. Please help.

hi, I can't seem to be able to extend my macOS Big sur 11.4 screen to iMac late 2013. Appreciate any solution. Thanks.

The app store on MacOS Big Sur public beta 7 says Cannot connect to app store. Help please.

I had a Big Sur MacMini update (non Beta) get stuck and nothing would fix it, so I then decided to go to Monterey (beta). After some initial problems, related to a Big Sur update waiting in the wings, the Monterey installation started - and then got stuck. The same problem: got so far then no further, time after time. I tried Safe Mode start-ups, but to no avail. During a shutdown, which also seemed to be blocked, I became aware of HDD noise from the networked backup drive. A backup was in progress! When I turned off automatic backups in TimeMachine (and disconnected the drive), the Monterey install worked - and I suspect the Big Sur update would have done also.

Hi! I updated Mac OS Big Sur, unfortunately it is locked on boot screen for nearly an hour.

I have an MacBook Pro 15 2018 and I can't install the beta 4 version of Big Sur no matter what I do installing in safe mode , reset NVRAM, SMC reset, Single user mode, setting the time, try out another user, recovery mode, try deleted and download a new one and bootable drive. My Mac still won't install the beta version of Big Sur.

Greetings everyone, A few days ago I downloaded Big Sur to give it a try. As it is still in Beta it is really buggy at some points and I could not work on my art works, that is why I decided to go back to Catalina and wait until Big Sur will release. I used Option+Command+R to get in the recovery mode for Catalina version. I agreed to terms and when I needed to choose a disc - I could not do it because my disc was locked. How do I unlock that disc?

how do I mount external usb drives on Big Sur. They worked perfectly on Catalina

Before macOS Big Sur, one could create an ad-hoc WiFi network using CWInterface's -startIBSSModeWithSSID: security: channel: password: error: But this appears to no longer function on Big Sur: The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.coreWLAN.error error -3930.) What is the Big Sur way of programmatically establishing an ad-hoc network?

Because I'm just an absolute daredevil, I have Big Sur running as a fresh install from b1 in a brand new APFS container with no other OS's or partitions on-disk. I've tried to partition in BootCamp, Disk Utility, and Disk Utility via Recovery. No dice. Is this blocked by System Integrity?

How much space required to install macOS Big Sur. While starting update shows 16 gb required.

my MacBook startup getting slow after updating latest macOS Big Sur what action required to fix it ?

Big Sur on my Mac Mini will not boot back up. Started after a normal reboot. It was up-to-date based on the updater. The boot sequence takes me to a screen that says it needs internet to validate the disk. I select and authenticate to my wi-fi, click try-again, same issue. I've also tried with ethernet. The boot sequence just keep cycling. Unfortunately I did not create a boot disk with the Big Sur image. Any tips would be appreciated!
