No, if your Mac is not capable of running macOS 10.15 Catalina, it will not be able to run future versions of macOS. The ‘fix’ is to buy a new (or newer) Mac.


If you’re referring to older applications that aren’t compatible with 10.15 because they’re 32-bit, the app developer(s) are responsible for compatibility. Apple informed them years ago.
