About upgrading to MacOS 13

Hi Daniel

Please note that Time Machine may not work for going back from macOS13 to macOS12. At least it did not work in my case.  I also realized that macOS13 changed the format of the Photos library so that I could not read it with macOS12 after reinstalling the old operating system (fortunately I had a recent backup for this library). 

So if you try to upgrade I would strongly suggest to make a full backup first without using Time Machine to ensure that you still have all your data, if it does not work out.

Best regards, Marcus
