macOS Ventura 13.3 broke a lot of things
https://www.macworld.com/article/1717319/ios-16-4-1-macos-13-3-1updates-bug-fixes-weather-home-handoff.html
The iOS 16.4.1 and macOS 13.3.1 updates fix much more than Apple says
When it comes to OS updates, we here at Macworld encourage users to install
them as soon as possible. Updates sometimes have nice new features, but
it's the bug fixes and security updates that are the most important.
But with iOS 16.4, iPadOS 16.4, and macOS 13.3, the update to the update
was the one worth waiting for, and they could be the most important ones of
the year, depending on the issues you've had with your devices.
On Friday, Apple released small updates to iOS 16.4 and macOS 13.3, and if
you look at the release notes, they're extremely small updates.
Just three insignificant issues are mentioned-fixes to Siri, Auto Unlock
your Mac with Apple Watch, and an emoji, but they are much bigger than
that.
For one, they include two major security patches for vulnerabilities that
uses the standard Apple term of "may have been actively exploited."
And for another, they appear to fix most if not all of the bugs introduced
in iOS 16.4 and macOS 13.3.
macOS Ventura 13.3
Home directory: macOS 13.3 introduces a problem with user Home directories
saved to external drives. A workaround to this problem involves turning off
System Integrity Protection, but that's not ideal. We've confirmed that
this problem is fixed in the macOS Ventura 13.3.1 update.
Quick Look: Though I've not had this problem, many users on Apple's Support
Community can't get Quick Look to work in macOS 13.3. Responses to the
original post confirm that macOS 13.3.1 fix the issue.
Universal Control and Handoff: These features, which rely on iCloud
connectivity, have stopped working for some users after installing 13.3.
The workaround involves logging off of iCloud and then logging back on, but
that can cause a whole bunch of headaches, especially if you use iCloud to
sync your Photo library. We need to test to see if this bug persists.
