Update MacOS Software
Ventura is the newest Apple Mac Operating System that is necessary for you to successfully use a MacBook at BWS. Therefore, it is important that all students update their MacBook to the Sequoia OS.
It may take a few hours to update to Sequoia, so make sure you plan the time to run the update and have your MacBook plugged into a power outlet.
How to Update
1. In the upper left corner, click on the Apple symbol and then "About This Mac". This will show you what OS your laptop is currently running. Click on "More Info".
2. Click on the "Software Update Available" in the upper left corner.
3. Click "Upgrade Now" and follow the prompts to finish the update.
