Fear not, for you still have options like soldiering on, installing a new version of macOS against Apple\u2019s will, or ditching macOS entirely.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Apple_Decides_When_Support_Ends\"><\/span>Apple Decides When Support Ends<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Apple has no official written policy on what happens when your Mac is no longer supported by major operating system upgrades. These upgrades happen once per year, normally around October, and they have a new name like Catalina, Mojave, or Big Sur.<\/p>\n<p>macOS is designed first and foremost for Apple\u2019s latest computers. As modern machines become more powerful, there comes a point when older machines simply aren\u2019t up to the task anymore. At that stage, these machines are potentially \u201cstuck\u201d on the last compatible major release forever.<\/p>\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>ly happens once the machine is seven or eight years old. As an example, the 2021 macOS Monterey update drops support for several machines that were compatible with the previous version (Big Sur). These include iMacs from 2014, the 2013 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, and 2015\u2019s MacBook.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_Old_Versions_of_macOS_Get_Updates\"><\/span>Do Old Versions of macOS Get Updates?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Apple\u2019s track record suggests that the company will update the latest version of macOS plus the previous two versions. The two older versions will continue to receive occasional software updates, which mostly focus on security fixes. The latest version of macOS will get more comprehensive updates like performance tweaks and bug fixes.<\/p>\n<p>The latest release will get brand new features like overhauls to apps like Safari or Mail or changes to the way that macOS works. When Apple added Night Shift to macOS in the 10.12.4 update, older versions of macOS like 10.11 and 10.10 didn\u2019t get this feature.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-734790 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-16-at-14.26.52.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Night Shift in macOS Catalina\" width=\"650\" height=\"364\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, Apple will update versions of macOS that fall outside of the two-year cutoff. In November of 2020, Apple issued a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-au\/HT211946\">security update<\/a> for macOS High Sierra, even though it was three versions behind the latest release (Big Sur) at the time. Apple can make calls like this based on how many people are still using the software and how severe the security issues are.<\/p>\n<p>A glance at <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-au\/HT201222\">Apple\u2019s register of security updates<\/a> reveals that this doesn\u2019t happen too often. This suggests that many other \u201cminor\u201d security issues could go unaddressed for Mac users on older versions of macOS.<\/p>\n<p>So if you find yourself in this situation, what should you do?<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Option_1_Keep_Using_an_Outdated_Version_of_macOS\"><\/span>Option 1: Keep Using an Outdated Version of macOS<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Your first option is to carry on using your outdated Mac regardless of software status. You will still get security updates for the first two years, and your Mac should continue to function like it always has outside of any hardware issues you might face.<\/p>\n<p>But there are problems with this approach. If you use an iPhone or iPad, you could lose the ability to connect it to your Mac when you update to a newer version of iOS. This makes it impossible to perform local backups or transfer files via a USB connection.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-734787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-16-at-14.07.17.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Cannot Connect to iPhone running iOS 14 in macOS Catalina\" width=\"650\" height=\"251\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>As time goes on, you might start to lose software support, too. Some apps could require a newer version of macOS, just as iPhone and iPad apps require a minimum version of iOS. This could result in apps that you\u2019ve purchased via the Mac App Store not updating or working at all.<\/p>\n<p>If you use Safari, keep in mind that your browser will stop receiving updates outside of security fixes. This might result in web pages not rendering correctly or in web apps that refuse to work. If you\u2019re determined to keep using your Mac at this stage, we\u2019d recommend a third-party browser like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/\">Firefox<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/chrome\/\">Chrome<\/a>, or <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/deeplink?id=2QzUaswX1as&amp;mid=24542&amp;u1=htg\/733012&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.microsoft.com%2Fen-us%2Fedge\">Edge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Option_2_Install_an_Unsupported_macOS_Release_Anyway\"><\/span>Option 2: Install an Unsupported macOS Release Anyway<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Apple doesn\u2019t share why it decides to exclude a Mac from a major release, but performance likely plays a big part in the decision. If a new version of macOS might make performance significantly worse, Apple could decide to drop support for that model.<\/p>\n<p>But what if the internet knows better? This appears to be what many have concluded with the rise of macOS \u201cpatcher\u201d apps that make it possible to install unsupported versions of macOS on your old Apple hardware.<\/p>\n<p>This really got started with dosdude1\u2019s\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/dosdude1.com\/mojave\/\">Mojave Patcher<\/a>\u00a0and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/dosdude1.com\/catalina\/\">Catalina Patcher<\/a>\u00a0in 2018 and 2019, respectively. These tweaks required that you download the right version of macOS, format a USB stick, and create your own install medium that ignored Apple\u2019s restrictions on eligible models.<\/p>\n<p>For macOS Big Sur, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/BenSova\/Patched-Sur\">Patched Sur<\/a> makes the process much easier. You can use the app to evaluate whether your Mac is suitable, download the right version of macOS, configure a USB drive, and create your install medium. You can then <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/bensova.gitbook.io\/big-sur\/postinstall-after-upgrade\/updating-macos\">update macOS using Patched Sur<\/a> by running the \u201cpost-install\u201d app that\u2019s included with each release.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-734788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-16-at-14.10.21.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Verifying Mac with Patched Sur\" width=\"650\" height=\"376\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing in June 2021, macOS Monterey isn\u2019t even in public beta, so nothing like Patched Sur exists for it yet. The most promising project for the latest release is the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/dortania\/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher\">OpenCore Legacy Patcher,<\/a> which also supports Big Sur. To learn more, check out the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/forums.macrumors.com\/threads\/macos-12-monterey-on-unsupported-macs-thread.2299557\/\">macOS Monterey on Unsupported Macs<\/a> thread over on the MacRumors forums.<\/p>\n<p>While installing the latest version of macOS will improve your support in terms of software updates, macOS features, and so on, there are drawbacks, too. The main one is performance, since many models were excluded for this reason. A note in the Patched Sur <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/BenSova\/Patched-Sur\/blob\/main\/README.md\">readme<\/a> states: \u201cIf you have anything older than a 2012\/2013 Mac, it\u2019ll be terrible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You might have issues with discreet GPU switching, which means that some Mac models won\u2019t be able to use their more powerful graphics chips after the update. This is catastrophic for performance, as documented in the Patched Sur <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/bensova.gitbook.io\/big-sur\/supported-macs\">Supported Macs document<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cNo graphics acceleration\u201d is a tremendous, almost exponential, slowdown that SHOULD NOT be ignored. For instance, consider a simple task, simply minimizing a Safari window:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Late 2012 13\u2033 MacBook Pro: &lt;1 second<\/li>\n<li>Early 2011 13\u2033 MacBook Pro: 14 seconds<\/li>\n<li>Late 2009 13\u2033 MacBook: 25 seconds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>You might also lose wireless networking, but this can likely be fixed with a few of Patched Sur\u2019s post-install patches. If you decide that an unsupported version of macOS isn\u2019t for you, you\u2019ll need to source the right disk image, create an install medium, and reinstall macOS from scratch to fix it.<\/p>\n<p>If you decide to go ahead with the installation, make sure that you make a Time Machine backup first.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Option_3_Install_Linux_or_Windows\"><\/span>Option 3: Install Linux (or Windows)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Ditching macOS isn\u2019t ideal if you bought your Mac with Apple\u2019s ecosystem in mind. You\u2019ll lose access to apps and services that work in tandem with your Mac, like tabs that sync between devices and seamless integration with iCloud. You\u2019ll also miss out on Apple technologies like AirDrop, iMessage, and AirPlay.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth taking a look at what you use your Mac for on a daily basis before taking this step. If you decide that you\u2019d rather get more mileage out of your existing hardware regardless of which operating system you have to use, consider a desktop-ready version of Linux.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-735730\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/ubuntu-2004.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Ubuntu 20.04's desktop\" width=\"650\" height=\"432\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>For an old Mac, Linux makes the most sense. A user-friendly release like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ubuntu.com\">Ubuntu<\/a> will have excellent support for common bugbears like wireless adapters and trackpads, which often <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a> up Mac and MacBook owners. You can choose to run Linux from a USB drive or even dual-boot Linux with macOS, just in case you need Apple\u2019s platform occasionally.<\/p>\n<p>You can pick your preferred lightweight Linux distribution if Ubuntu doesn\u2019t appeal to you. There are many to choose from, including <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/puppylinux.com\">Puppy<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/tinycorelinux.net\">Tiny Core<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/lubuntu.net\">Lubuntu<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/lxle.net\">LXLE<\/a>, and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.absolutelinux.org\/\">Absolute Linux<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Windows is another option, and it\u2019s one that you can download and install without having to buy a license first.

But there are many ways to sunset your trusty computer that don\u2019t involve a landfill.<\/p>\n<p>To start with, Apple will likely give you some money off a new Mac thanks to their trade-in scheme. Head to the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/shop\/trade-in\">Trade in with Apple<\/a>\u00a0website and select your model to see how much Apple will give you for it.

Even an outdated version of macOS is stable enough\u00a0for running a media server like\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.anrdoezrs.net\/links\/3607085\/type\/am\/sid\/733012\/https:\/\/www.plex.tv\">PLEX<\/a>, hosting network files using SMB, or acting as a network Time Machine backup location.<\/p>\n<p>For best results, prevent your Mac from accessing the internet at all. If you do this, you won\u2019t need to worry too much about the security implications of running an outdated version of macOS. If you don\u2019t use your Mac for things like browsing the web, you won\u2019t be exposed to some of the most common security problems.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Time_to_Upgrade\"><\/span>Time to Upgrade?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re coming from a Mac that\u2019s no longer supported, it might have been a while since you bought a Mac.
