update from MACOS 10.13

can i update high sierra 10.13 to higher ?

My computer works perfectly but im finding that i cant download designer programs because of requierments of 10.15 or higher. Do I really have to spend on a new laptop?

If the program you need, needs to run on 10.15 or newer, make sure you have:



MacBook early 2015 8,1

iMac Late 2012 12,1

MacBook Pro Mid-2012 9,1

Mac Mini Late 2012 6,1

MacBook Air Mid 2012 5,1

Mac Pro 2013 6,1


where the x,y after the machine name year is the Machine ID as it appears in Apple menu -> About this Mac -> System Report -> Hardware.


If your Mac is older, you'll need a newer Mac to use 10.15 or newer.


Also make sure all your applications are 64 bit compatible and read this tip:
