It also addresses a bug that could cause USB-C or Thunderbolt external displays to not turn on when connected to the 2018 Mac mini as a secondary display.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eclecticlight.co\/2022\/03\/31\/what-has-changed-in-monterey-12-3-1\/\">Howard Oakley<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote cite=\"https:\/\/eclecticlight.co\/2022\/03\/31\/what-has-changed-in-monterey-12-3-1\/\"><p>Additionally, this addresses two other issues. The first are those few MacBook Pro 2021 models which have been unable to update to 12.3; this update should enable them to update to 12.3.1 successfully. The other is a strange bug which caused flickering in half a dozen pixels on Thunderbolt or Cinema Displays when connected using a USB-C to TB adaptor, with an M1 Mac; that has now been fixed too.<\/p><p>I&rsquo;m glad to hear that this apparently fixes the severe bug in AppleScript which caused <code>open [file]<\/code> to fail. However, it doesn&rsquo;t fix or alter in any way the memory leak seen in the Finder&rsquo;s Find feature, nor does it display charge levels during recharging of Apple wireless input devices.<\/p><p>There are two security fixes included in this update, <a href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/HT213220\">detailed here<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n<p>See also: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ClassicII_MrMac\/status\/1509707075970113542\">Mr. Macintosh<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>You can download the installer <a href=\"https:\/\/mrmacintosh.com\/macos-12-monterey-full-installer-database-download-directly-from-apple\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>Previously:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mjtsai.com\/blog\/2022\/03\/15\/macos-12-3\/\">macOS 12.3<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p id=\"macos-12-3-1-update-2022-04-12\">Update (2022-04-12): <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intego.com\/mac-security-blog\/apple-neglects-to-patch-zero-day-wild-vulnerabilities-for-macos-big-sur-catalina\/\">Joshua Long<\/a> (via <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/meekgeek\/status\/1511932661006487556\">Meek Geek<\/a>):<\/p>\n<blockquote cite=\"https:\/\/www.intego.com\/mac-security-blog\/apple-neglects-to-patch-zero-day-wild-vulnerabilities-for-macos-big-sur-catalina\/\">\n<p>After [more than] a week, Apple still has not released corresponding security updates to address the same vulnerabilities in the two previous macOS versions, Big Sur (aka macOS 11) and Catalina (aka macOS 10.15).<\/p>\n<p>Both of these macOS versions are ostensibly still receiving patches for &ldquo;significant vulnerabilities&rdquo;&mdash;and actively exploited zero-day vulnerabilities certainly qualify as significant.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Juli Clover: macOS Monterey 12.3.1 comes two weeks after the launch of macOS Monterey 12.3, an update that brought Universal Control.
