Turn off MacBook;
Hold shift, turn on MacBook, it should launch to desktop in Safe mode;
Open App Store, search "big sur" and press "Get", System Preferences should open with downloading of full Big Sur update (~12GB);
Wait until installation completes and reboot normally, you can work meanwhile, however UI is quite slow in Safe Mode.
Same problem — less than a minute remaining. Worst update experience ever. Has Apple gone rotten?
Stuck on 13%. How is this not solved already by Apple?
I already switched my main computer (after 15 years!) to PC after Apple failed to deliver my iMac 3 times - now simply trying to run an update and reading this forum just gives even less hope.
That said - sending you love and good vibes Apple - please solve this as I do need my laptop!
When I press the power button to force shut down, the clock moves from the static 13% to 3% then ‘less than a minute’ - then I let go of the key and it goes back to 13%...
dont know if to laugh or cry
same here except mine gets stuck at 14% at the installer i installed catlilina after my hard drive had removed my full macOS partition so i wanted to dual boot my mac and this issue hasn't been resolved
Same is happening to my mac. Is there any solution to it yet. Please help.
Did you find a solution? Mine’s been stuck for 9 hours. I’ve tried to do the Option power up and selected Hard Drive and it still gets stuck.
