Updating macOS Ventura v13.6.9 to v13.7 got stuck when I was out. :/

Basically, I told 13" Intel 2020 MBP's macOS to update its Safari and macOS Ventura to v13.7 while I was out since it takes a while to download, prepare, upgrade, and finish. I came home and MBP was asleep. I thought it was done so I woke it up and the screen blinked and showed me https://matrix.zimage.com/_matrix/media/v3/download/ross154.net/rJetbpwFfEkNGXPcPaJwxlmU/FullSizeRender.jpg (photo). I waited for 15 minutes, and it was still there at the same status. MBP wasn't even warm so it's not doing anything I think. Usually, upgrades makes MBP warm/hot. :(


So, I held the power button to force a shut off, booted back up, but nothing. I tried again without power AC, monitor, and 3.5mm speaker cable. Now, it worked. That scared me. I was able to boot up and log into macOS Ventura v13.6.9.


So, should I try again since I never had this issue before? :/ Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

MacBook Pro (2017 – 2020)

Try again, only this time with the Computer connected to the charger.


Sometimes but not always, running on Battery Power is not advised


Especially when updating.


The battery could loose enough battery power and not compete the update
