Mac Operating System Ventura Update

macOS 10.14 Ventura Update
The Information Technology department has completed performing tests to confirm that supported services are work as designed with this new update. As a result, we are recommending the operating system upgrade to Ventura for those that need it.  However, we also recommend that the MSUM IT Staff perform the upgrade for you.

Can I perform the upgrade myself?
Likely, you can execute the update on your own. We have had several instances where the upgrades did not perform as expected and the computer operating system needed to be reinstalled.  We encourage you to contact the MSUM IT Helpdesk and we will create a support ticket to schedule your upgrade with you.
