Just upgraded to Catalina y'day and its been a disaster. At least it is supported by Ventura.Good morning. The iMac Pro was only introduced in 2017, then it was discontinued earlier in 2021. For Ventura only the mid 2017 (Kaby Lake or 7th gen), 2019 (Coffee Lake or 8th-gen), 2020 (Comet Lake or 10th-gen), and 2021 (M1) models are supported. Monterey was available on the 2015 iMac, but you’re out of luck if that’s what you have and you want to run Ventura. If you have one of the Space Gray models from 2018, or the practically identical 2020 models, you will be able to run Ventura. Mac mini models from 2018 or laterĪpple didn’t update the Mac mini for a number of years, so chances are there aren’t that many of the 2014 models still in use, but if you have one it won’t be supported by Ventura. Last year it was announced that the 20 MacBook Pro models could run macOS Monterey, but this year they’re out! The 2017 models arrived in July 2017 and had Kaby Lake (7th-gen) processors.


For more information, see: This is how long Apple supports Macs for. They might not be able to use the latest features, but they’ll keep getting security patches and other ongoing support. We had thought that Apple wouldn’t remove those Macs from the supported list, since people might have purchased the model such a short time ago.īear in mind, however, that these ‘unlucky’ Macs can stay on (or upgrade to) macOS Monterey, and will still be officially supported by Apple for at least two more years. The 2014 Mac mini was sold until 2018, the ‘trash can’ Mac Pro until 2019, and the 2017 MacBook Air was sold until July 2019. Many of the Macs that are not supported by Ventura were still being sold by Apple until quite recently. There will no doubt be a few Mac users who are disappointed by that list.

The following Macs can run macOS Ventura:
