![]() When I burn a DVD with the same ProRes 442 file, it works. In addition, when I burn Blu-ray from a Disc Image made before I upgraded to Monterey, it works too. Yet my Blu-ray Disc player shows a blank disc. After burning, the media is indicated on the disc by the 453.6 MB file size. ![]() My workflow is to export a ProRes 422 file and put that into Compressor to create a Blu-ray Disc Image. Just wanted to let you know that since upgrading my 27″ 2019 iMac to 12.1 Monterey, I’m unable to burn a Blu-ray disc. I’m using Compressor 4.6. There were only a couple apps that needed to be updated after Monterey was installed. NOTE: I should mention that I upgraded all my applications as updates became available, in the weeks prior to upgrading to Monterey. However, as far as my existing editing software was concerned, everything seems to run the same as always. The update also seemed to reset all my Final Cut Pro preferences. (To do this, simply unplug the USB connection into the back of the computer, wait 15 seconds, then reconnect it.) It seems that this connection now needs to be reset on a daily basis. I use a FocusRite A/D converter to connect all my analog gear to my computer via USB. I reset my desktop picture because I don’t particularly like the strong graphics used by macOS Monterey. I noticed several minor things changed after the update.įirst, Apple Mail, which I use as my email client, needed to reindex all my emails. There was nothing I needed to do, except check the system every once in a while to see if things were done. For me, this download took slightly longer than an hour.Īfter the download was complete, the installation itself started. The full download takes a while, depending upon the speed of your Internet connection and the activity of Apple’s servers. In virtually all cases, you’ll put this on your internal drive – Macintosh HD. Specify where you want to install the new software. ![]() The initial download is fairly quick and this screen appears. Go to System Preferences > Software Update to begin the upgrade process. My 2017 iMac – which is my main system until Apple releases the long-rumored 27″ M1 iMac – was running Big Sur 11.6.1. NOTE: As with any upgrade, if there is software you absolutely depend upon, be sure to visit the developer’s website to verify it will work properly on macOS Monterey before upgrading. The main reason I’m writing this tutorial is to provide an opportunity for you to add comments discussing any problems you discovered in your upgrade. However, prior to updating the OS, I also updated all my applications to make sure I was running the latest version of everything. I had a few minor problems – detailed in the Notes section below – but haven’t encountered anything major. Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve all seem to work OK. So, a couple of weeks after Apple released macOS 12.1 (Monterey), I finally upgraded. NOTE: However, that’s not true with the shift to Apple Silicon, where there are features supported in Apple Silicon computers that don’t exist in Intel-based systems. There are no new features in Final Cut, Premiere or Resolve that suddenly “appear” with an update. The good news is that waiting doesn’t hurt anything. (In the case of Big Sur, which had a ton of initial problems, I waited until the. Over the years, I’ve developed a personal rule that I don’t update any version of the macOS until Apple releases a. ![]() Like most of us, I read Mac-oriented websites to see what problems other people are having to determine how significant any issues might be. If macOS breaks, or has significant bugs, our computers become essentially non-functional. It truly is the brains behind the whole operation the CPU is simply carrying out instructions. That’s because the operating system is the foundation of everything we do on our computers. While I tend to update applications within a couple of days after release, I take much more time before upgrading the operating system. My attitude is that, as editors, our role in life is to tell stories using moving images, not beta test software. But, when it comes to operating system upgrades, I tend to be far from the bleeding edge. ![]() “Change is the only constant in life” is a true saying. ![]()
