Apple has released macOS Sonoma 14.6 for Mac users running the Sonoma operating system.
The MacOS Sonoma 14.6 software update primarily focuses on bug fixes and security updates for most Macs, however it does include a nice new feature specifically for the 14″ M3 MacBook Pro series allowing that Mac to support two external displays when running in clamshell mode (ie; the laptop lid is closed but the Mac is on).
Separately, Apple also has released iOS 17.6 for iPhone, iPadOS 17.6 for iPad, tvOS 17.6 for Apple TV, watchOS 10.6 for Apple Watch, visionOS 1.3 for Apple Vision Pro, along with MacOS Ventura 13.6.8, MacOS Monterey 12.7.6, iOS 16.7.9, iPadOS 16.7.9, iOS 15.8.3, and iPadOS 15.8.3.
How to Download & Install MacOS Sonoma 14.6 Update
