  • macOS Monterey may be bricking some Macs - but there is a fix

    My 2019 MacBook Pro was bricked while updating to 11.6.1. I'm still under AppleCare and called Apple. They said I'd have to take the computer into my local 3rd-party Apple dealer for evaluation. That dealer found that the T2 was "stuck," but they were able to "reset" it. I presume they used the Configurator method mentioned here, but I'm not sure. The problem is, they charged me $75 for their half-hour of time, a fee I don't feel I should be responsible for since it was Apple's software/hardware that caused the problem. I will take this up with Apple and hopefully get reimbursed. NOTE: Fix restarted my bricked machine and no data was lost.
