I have been thinking for a while now of creating a one-stop-shop for macOS System Status & Version Info. The idea behind this is a page you can visit that has the latest information, from what’s broke in the latest macOS release to what forked build number the new 2019 iMac has. This page will follow the general idea of Apple’s System Status Page but include a lot more information.
- System Status For Mac High Sierra
- System Status Mac
- System Status For Mac Mojave
- System Status For Mac Catalina
I have received some really great feedback on my Updated List of Notarization Links page and how it has helped many MacAdmins. This page will be an extension on that. With the amount of work we are all dealing with, it’s very difficult to keep up. I can’t tell you how many times I have spent hours troubleshooting an issue only to find out that it was a known problem. If this page can save you that lost time it will be worth the effort!

This section will cover critical core macOS system functions. If something major is not working, it will be listed here. Most of the system functions listed are very important to MacAdmins. I verify each section myself and also include reports from other sources. NOTE: Be sure to verify in your own lab, I am providing a “best effort”service.
macOS System Updates/Versions
System Status For Mac High Sierra
In the 2nd section, I will list the current Mojave Installer and the current Beta. Forked installers will also be listed. (A forked macOS installer is a special app installer that is only used for a new Mac Hardware releases). BridgeOS and built-in security versions (Malware Removal Tool, XProtect, Gatekeeper) are also listed.
System Status Mac
Core Application updates/versions
In the final section, I included a list of core macOS Applications. The table contains size of the update, release date and patch notes.
Improvements ?
Should I add other sections? Add older OS’s like High Sierra or Sierra? What about including issues in previous Mojave Point releases? Could the layout be better? Let me know.
