I've updated my iMac 2019 with Big Sur 11.0.1.
Following the update, none of the Apple apps are working (Safari, iMessage, Apple Music, even the app store !). Other apps such as Excel or Chrome work fine.
When clicking on the icon of an Apple app in the dock, it moves for half a second and then stays still.
I've rebooted several times.
No system update is available.
What can I do?
iMac Line (2012 and Later)
Go into Recovery mode https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201314 and re-install. It will overwrite the upgrade and may resolve these issues.
Also, be prepared for the system to seem slow for a day or so while new databases are being written.

If you can't connect to the App Store, iTunes Store, or other ...
My pleasure. Enjoy the upgrade. In the future you might want to wait until the dust settles before performing a major update. Even minor dot updates can cause unforeseen issues. Err on the side of caution and check back on these forums to see what issues are out there before jumping in.
I've also checked the date and time, my internet connection, etc. To no avail.
It worked. Thanks!
After Big Sur update, none of the Apple apps are working
