Time Machine Backupīefore continuing with installing macOS Big Sur on your unsupported mac, I recommend you to take a backup of your files. All you have to do is prepare a 16 GB USB Flash Drive to copy the macOS Installer inside it. Supported Macs with Metal Graphics Accelerationįor this Guide I will use the Patched Sur, which is easy and it has Graphic user interface. I don’t know if you have tried, but on these system if you run the macOS Big Sur installer you will face the below error. They are called the unsupported mac, where the is macBook Pro and Air 2012 along with the 2013 Early MacBook Pro are included. So yeah, TL DR: no official way, and the OpenCore people have bullied all the other options out of the equation.Apple announced that macOS Big Sur will not be supported on most of the PCs. I ran a Hackintosh using TonyMacx86 tools for almost ten years with zero issues, but you say that these days and people treat you like you just said Hitler was a good guy. “If you don’t figure it out for yourself, you won’t be able to fix it when things go wrong.” Yeah well, what if you’ve made it so hard to use that I can’t get it to work right in the first place, much less figure out what’s wrong with it later?īack in the day I always had good luck with the TonyMacx86 tools, and their forum was always there for me when I had an issue. Though for my tastes, the complexity of OpenCore and its users’ insistence that you’re a heathen if you can’t understand it well enough to get a legacy Mac or Hackintosh working is super cringe. That’s going to become a big deal shortly, but other than that Apple hasn’t stopped enthusiasts from using tools like OCLP. They’re over-conservative about it, and we will forever debate whether it’s to keep the user experience above a certain minimum or force their users to buy new Macs when they don’t really have to.Īpple is in the process of leaving the Intel architecture behind for their own ARM-based chips, so at some point they will stop releasing new versions of MacOS that work on Intel CPUs, and then there will be absolutely no possible way to install the latest MacOS on an old Mac. Apple is pretty clear about what OSes they want running on what Macs. There is no official way to install unsupported versions of MacOS.
