Apple has made macOS Monterey 12.4 available to all Mac users currently using the Monterey operating system.

Apple states that macOS 12.4 brings enhancements to the Podcasts app, adds support for a firmware update for the Apple Studio Display camera, and improves security features.

In addition, Apple has also rolled out iOS 15.5 and iPadOS 15.5, along with updates for watchOS and tvOS.

How to Download MacOS Monterey 12.4 Update

Before installing any system software update on your Mac, make sure to back it up using Time Machine. Failing to do so could lead to permanent data loss if something goes wrong during the process.

1. Click on the ? Apple menu in the top-left corner, then choose “System Preferences” from the dropdown list
2. Open the “Software Update” preference panel
3. Click “Update Now” once the macOS Monterey 12.4 update becomes available for download

The size of the update varies between 1.5GB and 2.3GB depending on the Mac model, and a restart is required to complete the installation.

Some users may need to refresh the Software Update preference panel two or three times before the update appears. If you don’t see the update initially, try pressing Command R several times. (From my own experience, nothing appeared at first, followed by a Safari update, and finally the macOS 12.4 update showed up after the third refresh.)
