The announcement you are referring to had to do with Remote Incident Manager. If you are not using this application, then there is no reason not to update. I have done the update, and find it to be essentially bug free. - Brad - On Sep 23, 2024, at 18:45, Lorie McCloud wrote: I read a notice

I read a notice that said not to upgrade to sequoia until further notice. this kind of thing happens often at the beginning of a new OS. I’d rather not deal with that kind of stuff but I don’t want to get too far behind either so I move up right behind the new one. > On Sep 23, 2024, at 5:43 PM
