Apple has recently released the Big Sur, which is the latest version of the known macOS. However, there have already been a couple of users that have started to report issues with either downloading and installing this new OS for both the Mac and the MacBook devices.

MacOS Big Sur Problems

According to an article by ScreenRant, one of the most common errors is the error that occurs "while installing the selected updates" or MacOS Big Sur won't install and luckily, there's a fix. At the very moment, it still remains to be seen as to why some of the Mac users are still encountering the issue even if Apple is already aware of this problem.

The company's own System Status page specifically highlights a particular macOS software update issue that further explains why some of the users might not actually be able to download the known macOS Software Updates onto their Mac computers.

Possible fixes for MacOS Big Sur Issues

As of the moment, there are only a few solutions to the problem regarding macOS Big Sur not installing. There are, however, a bunch of solutions that have worked in the past and could also possibly work again for the MacOS Sur Installation failed problem.

1. Restarting the computer. Either immediately or right before the chime, hold down the both the Command and the R keys until a Utility Menu pops out.

2. Click the Disk Utility and press the seen Continue button

3. Select the indented volume entry seen from the very side list

4. Directly click on the First Aid tab located in the toolbar and proceed to wait for the known Done button in order to activate it. Simply click on it, then quit the Disk Utility.

If the given examples are still not working or might be too complicated, there could be a few things to check that could possibly be the source of the problem. One thing to check is how much space the unit has and if it can handle the given update. There are actually a lot of apps that might take up a lot of space without the user recognizing it. It is necessary to unload a little bit in order for the user to get the later version.

What to do if the MacOS Big Sur won't install?

There are two possible solutions to the MacOS Big Sur problems that are being experienced by a number of Apple users as of the moment. One of them is to keep on searching for solutions while trying new things in order for the update to work and another is actually to simply wait until Apple sorts everything out which it usually does after a while.
