macOS Monterey It is officially launched in the public beta version, which means it can be installed on any Compatible poppy by anyone who wants to explore and test the new characteristics and functions.

Being an operating system in the Beta development stage, it is expected to meet anomalies and errors. After all, this is the purpose of "Public Beta" versions at a software. Discovering errors and bugs in several scenarios and on a large range of devices. This is why I do not recommend installing software in beta if you have a Mac / MacBook that you use for service, school or productivity.

Until Macos Monterey Public Beta I was used to the errors to appear after I was able to see the new bone on MacBook. This time the unpleasant surprise appeared since Download Macos Monterey Beta.

To install a beta public version of a new version of maccos, it is relatively simple. Download the upgrade package from https://beta.apple.com, Enroll and "Upgrade Now“.
Of course followed the process of “Downloading macOS Monterey beta…"Which at a given bait showed me a little strange progress. Download 11.73 GB of 11.73 GB, but the (blue) indicator bar did not reach the end.

After many minutes of waiting I received the message: “Installation failedIn order to continue installing, you need to be an owner”. So displaying the donwload indicator we understand that it is a bug, and the installation error comes due to system user permissions.

How we install Macos Monterey Beta if we receive the error: “Installation failedIn order to continue installing, you need to be an owner”?

Open Terminal and we execute the command line:

 sudo softwareupdate -i -a -R

We enter the system of system user user, then wait until the download and Installation of Macos Monterey it is completed.

In the end, the system will restart. Basically this says the command line: (-i) installation, (-a) all the most recent updates, (-r) restart / reboot.

I've been writing passionately since 2004 about Windows and Linux operating systems, and since 2010 I've become a fan of Apple University. I'm currently writing tutorials for Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, AirPods, and other Apple devices.
