I would try updating to macOS Catalina first, and then do the update to Monterey. If you have a problem finding the Catalina installer, contact me off list, and I can get it to you.

This Mac was reset to all factory defaults and there are no problems there. It is currently using Mohave and is running fine. I am trying to upgrade it to the Monterey OS but running into a snag. After the download is done and I choose to upgrade, the standard Agree of license terms comes up. I do that, and then it gets stuck on checking with (null), no percentage. No other windows seem to be open. I have tried shutting it down and starting over, I have removed the install icon from the Applications finder folder and re-downloaded the 12 GB size file, and I have connected and reconnected it to the WiFi. Still, no go. Do others have ideas of what else I may be able to try? I have not done any other kind of configuration or customization other than the standard Apple ID and one Gmail account on it, so if I need to erase it completely and start all over, no data will get lost. Thanks all for any suggestions you may offer. /Raul -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
