Vinz87 commented 4 years ago

I'm on El Capitan too, on a Macbook Pro Late 2008 which can't be updated. Is there any technical issue preventing it to run on macOS 10.11.6?

asylumexp commented 4 years ago

they have said that high Sierra will be the lowest firmware they are going to support, if your Mac doesn’t support Catalina, Mojave or High Sierra then I would recommend to have a look at the patchers DosDude1 has made. HS Patcher, MOJ Patcher and Catalina Patcher. Make sure to check if your system is compatible but it should be compatible with High Sierra or Mojave if it was last supported on EI Capitan.

I would recommend going onto Mojave first to see if your system can run it well. They all have YouTube video tutorials by DosDude1 on how to use them

asylumexp commented 4 years ago

I’m using the patchers on my machine as it got dropped support on HS. They definitely work well.

asylumexp commented 4 years ago

I’ll help anyone out who gets stuck.

pixelomer commented 4 years ago

There isn't a real limitation of El Capitan. High Sierra is the lowest supported right now because it Just Works™ there. Support for lower versions might come later.

DFNCTSC commented 4 years ago

If the methodology is restricted to only certain newer versions of macOS that goes to show how hacky and unreliable of a method this is using.

Rocking El Cap 10.11.6 on a MacBook Pro 2007 here. I wouldn't move to HS even if I could.

geordi1 commented 4 years ago

Support for 10.10.5 please? Yosemite works well on this 2012 macbook pro, I really don't want to update and break things.
