(macOS High Sierra’s initial install screen.) We’re always grateful that new versions of the operating system go through an extensive beta process, but it always seems a few issues will still be lurking, ready to pop up and surprise us. With that in mind, here are some of the more common problems you may encounter when upgrading to macOS High Sierra. Note: Before upgrading to any new or updated operating system, it’s a good idea to have a.

Upgrading From the Beta If you’re a beta tester, you may have a slightly more difficult time upgrading than the rest of us; it all depends on whether you installed during the beta testing. Apple backed away from its original goal of having APFS ready to go for all Mac configurations.

Instead, it’s releasing macOS High Sierra with APFS only for Macs using SSDs (Solid State Drives). If you converted a Fusion drive during the beta, it needs to be reverted to HFS+ before you can install macOS High Sierra. Unfortunately, Apple isn’t providing any tools to revert the file system. Instead, you’re required to back up your current data with, erase and reformat the affected drive(s), install macOS High Sierra, and then migrate your backed up data to the fresh install. Apple includes instructions for the process, specifically using Time Machine as the backup app. It seems you should also be able to perform this task by creating a clone using Carbon Copy Cloner or one of the other popular cloning tools. Nevertheless, even if you decide to create a clone, we highly recommend you also create a Time Machine backup, especially if the clone is the only copy of your data you will have.

You’ll need a drive partitioned as HFS+ for the Time Machine backup. This can be an existing Time Machine drive as long as it’s formatted as HFS+.

You’ll also need to create a bootable macOS High Sierra installer; a 16 GB or larger USB flash drive or an external drive can serve this purpose. Warning: The process of creating the bootable installer will erase the contents of the selected drive volume. Apple has posted instructions in its support area for. It covers two methods for converting a Fusion Drive back to HFS+ and installing macOS High Sierra. The instructions are a bit sparse, but should be sufficient for getting the job done.
