    Complete the upgrade:  Quicksheet – Upgrade macOS 2023

    The upgrade may take several hours to complete. Do not attempt to complete this update using a cellular signal or hotspot. Make sure your computer is in a safe place where it can remain plugged in and will not be disturbed during the upgrade.
