The update for 10.13.6 was available, so I installed it. Now I have issues with my favorite games. I've had freezes with Preview, and 1Password is giving me fits. Not. A. Happy. Camper.
1Password: I'm running Version 7.4.3 (70403002). I reinstalled all browser versions this morning, and that took care of the problem.


Edited to make clear what version OS, and to share info on 1Password.

Is "10.13.x" accurate or is it a typo? In either event, try (re)installing the Combo Update. This often cures weird problems (and it has worked for me).

At first I thought that "10.13.x" was referring to the Safari update, but I think it was just 13.x. I made that update and Safari claims it's now 13.1. There was also a Security Update 2020-002 for a bunch of OS X versions including 10.13.6. :dknw:

An image of the Mojave macOS 10.14 Updater I had is attached below.

Frankly, I think it's past time to drop the "10" part... not even sure the sequential part is helpful. Why not just the name and a version number and a secondary or sub version if absolutely needed. We'd now be at: Mojave 6, Catalina 4, High Sierra 6, etc. If some Windows user thinks he is getting an update from Apple, so what. :wallbash: :rolleyes:

Sorry, I meant ".x" as in I was too lazy to check and see what exact version it was. I'm at

10.13.6

I'm about to go play in the garden, but I'll look into re-installing later today. Thanks.

Before you reinstall the entire system (which may not be necessary), follow my previous suggestion and install (or reinstall) the Combo 10.3.6 Update It can't hurt and may very well solve your problem (and it's a lot faster).

What version of 1Password are you using, Kimmer? Does it need an update? People did have an issue with 10.13.6 and 1P 7.2.5, but that was a year ago and 1P is at 7.4.3 now (for those of us running the permanent licensed version, as opposed to the subscription version - would assume that the numbering is the same for that, but can't speak from experience)
