Apple released macOS Sonoma 14.1.1 on Tuesday and all Apple would say about the update is that it included “important bug fixes.” We now know what the update fixes, thanks to a report by MacRumors. The publication says the update fixes a software update issue with M3 Macs and an Adobe Photoshop bug.
Some 14-inch MacBook Pro and iMac models equipped with the standard M3 chip were shipped with an unreleased build of macOS Ventura 13.5 installed, and macOS 14.1 would not show up as an available update in the System Settings app. It is now possible to update these Macs to macOS 14.1.1. MacBook Pro models with the M3 Pro and M3 Max chips were not affected by the issue.
macOS 14.1.1 also fixes a bug that prevents users from clicking on a section of the toolbar in Photoshop on macOS 14.1, as noted by @JonyIveParody on the social network formerly known as Twitter.
In addition to macOS Sonoma 14.1.1, Apple also released macOS Ventura 13.6.2. The update contains a fix for an issue where 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with Apple silicon chips “start up to a black screen or circled exclamation point after the built-in display’s default refresh rate is changed,” according to an Apple support document.
