According to MacRumors, some Apple Studio Display users found that they might not update the screen firmware last weekend, and even asked some users to take the new screen, which was only launched last month, back to Apple for repair. Later, it was reported that the problem was actually caused by Apple’s internal coordination.
Everyone knows Studio Display Built-in A13 Bionic processor and uses iOS as firmware, to provide features such as character centering and Siri voice commands. However, when some users updated the Studio Display firmware on their Macs last weekend, a notification popped up “Apple Studio Display might not complete the firmware update”, asking users to try once more following a while. Contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider if the situation persists.
However, there are reports that this turned out to be a coordination problem from Apple itself, which turned out to be related to the release of iOS 15.4.1. Apple on April 1st Hong Kong timeUrgent release of iOS 15.4.1 To patch two zero-day vulnerabilities, Apple stopped issuing iOS 15.4 on Friday, local time, in case someone still updates the buggy iOS 15.4, making it impossible for devices to update to this version. However, Apple seems to have forgotten that Studio Display also uses iOS, and iOS 15.4.1 has not been released to Studio Display. Stop signing iOS 15.4 and Studio Display cannot update firmware on weekends.
Apple found the problem on Sunday night local time and re-issued iOS 15.4 to fix it. This incident has brought to the surface the problem that Apple may have to face different devices using different iOS versions, and it seems that Apple needs to make a new deployment of device updates to prevent Studio Display from becoming an “orphan” once more.
