Keeping up to date with security updates and not getting annoyed with Software Update is going to be difficult. This highlights an unintended consequence of Apple’s clumsy and ill-thought-out way to try to push more users to upgrade to Catalina: many will now disable updates altogether, or pull other tricks to be rid of this constant nagging. His article linked on SilentKnight covers some of the peculiarities and frustrations of dealing with Apple’s new strategy of forcing updates and Apple doubling down on hiding security information. SilentKnight is the work of security researcher DIJ Oakley who runs a very interesting weblog mainly about Apple system updates. The only workaround would seem to be to downgrade to macOS 10.13.3, which would likely involve installing an earlier version of High Sierra and then upgrading to 10.13.3 using the combo updater.Ģ0200611-SilentKnight-cleanup 2038×1944 683 KB (Functionality such as Ethernet and/or audio, where implemented, is unaffected.) Extended display support continues to work as expected in mac OS 10.13.3. We are aware that installing macOS release 10.13.4 will cause DisplayLink connected displays to go blank after the OS upgrade when using DisplayLink driver v4.1.

We have reported the bug to Apple and are hoping for a fix in macOS 10.13.5. The breakage is severe it causes an inelegant system crash when you try to connect to any unaccelerated display or USB monitor. This new version of macOS has made some bold changes to its WindowServer and Metal frameworks, and unfortunately has broken the Air Display Host, as well as all of our competitors. We’re sorry to say that the Air Display Host software does not yet work on macOS 10.13.4. In an email to Air Display users, Avatron wrote: However, the problem doesn’t affect secondary displays that connect directly to the Mac via Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt. MacObserver says the products affected include the hardware-based DisplayLink, along with the app-based Air Display, Duet, and iDisplay. We’re hearing reports, such as this comment from Dana Stevens, that the recent update to macOS 10.13.4 High Sierra is breaking third-party dual-display systems (see “ macOS 10.13.4 High Sierra Adds Business Chat and External GPU Support,” 30 March 2018).
