Perhaps, your password exercise was necessary because that was the very first time you updated the applications in your McBook Air (?) I already had those installed in the same machine from earlier on, when running Sierra, the OS it came with, so I probably did the same whole password bit when I just got this Mac, more than two years ago not that I would remember something like that, as it is just the sort of thing to forget as soon and as thoroughly as possible.

Usually, I only need to use my password when I install a totally new application, right after downloading its dmg installer. I have Mojave on a MacBook Pro from mid-2015 and have never, since installing Mojave, had to enter my password to get an update of those applications you mention. IвЂ™m glad it was so simple but IвЂ™m wondering why It worked so well on Mojave and so poorly on High Sierra.

I did and in about 2 minutes, I was printing. To the point of this threadвЂ™s topic, though, I set about to install the Canon Pixma860 printer, and to my amazement it worked just as advertised: I connected the printer via USB cable, turned the printer on, and immediately got a pop-up window asking if I would like to download and install software for the Canon Pixma860 printer. I hope I donвЂ™t need to enter passwords every time an update comes down the pike. I must have had to enter an apple id and password about 10 times вЂ“ even had to do it to install some software updates to Pages, Keynote, etc. So far I think itвЂ™s a very nice machine, although In my opinion, the initial setup was EXTREMELY annoying. It was originally released in 2017 (June, I think) but had Mojave 10.14.5 installed on it.

I just got a refurbished MacBook Air today.
