How to install macOS Monterey 12.4
Downloading and installing macOS Monterey 12.4 is very easy. Simply follow the steps below to get the latest version. Because the update has only just been released, it may take a while before you see the update. Many people try to download it directly. Is it not available to you yet? Then try again later.
- Open the System Preferences;
- Click on the ‘Software Update’ button;
- Wait for macOS Monterey to appear here and click ‘Update’;
- Wait for the download to complete and follow the on-screen steps.
It is important to know that your Mac will be restarted (several times) during the update. That’s why it’s smart to save your files and open documents beforehand, have enough storage space and make a backup of your Mac.
You can download macOS Monterey 12.4 and install it on any Mac that already supported the first version of Monterey. These are:
- MacBook Air (2013 and newer)

Few new features
MacOS Monterey 12.4 is a minor interim update that mainly improves security and contains bug fixes. Still, we recommend installing it as soon as possible, then your Mac will be up to date again.
This software version does support the new firmware of the Studio Display, which should improve the quality of the webcam. Also, Universal Control is no longer in beta. This feature already appeared in MacOS Monterey 12.3 and iPadOS 15.4. It lets you control both your Mac and iPad with a single mouse, trackpad, and keyboard.
