  • How to install Mojave on unsupported Macs

    I’m using DosDude’s High Sierra patcher on the 2008 MacBook Pro I use for live performance, and it runs flawlessly. It’s perky, too! I consider myself very much in his debt.

    I’m definitely going to be making the step to Mojave. I wrote him a while back hoping he would be providing a new patcher, and it sure looks like he resolved the issues he mentioned he was having.

    I won’t be installing the beta, but once the Gold Master release has been out for 2 or 3 weeks and the first round of fixes have been made, I’m going for it. I should note that I’ve got two much more recent desktop Macs I’ll be updating the old-fashioned, Apple-approved way… I would not recommend running the patcher on your primary lose-it-and-die computer. There’s too much at stake.

    Still, everything’s gone smoothly on the High Sierra version. Kudos to DosDude!

    My 2011 iMac won't be able to run Mojave despite being a very capable machine. This sucks! 
    You never know… there may be a workaround. I’m running High Sierra on my mid-2009 MacBook Pro that Apple EOLed at El Capitan, and it works perfectly – including seamless system updates. I installed this guy’s system patcher, no muss, no fuss… http://dosdude1.com/highsierra/ I’m hoping he’ll keep up this great work when Mojave comes out; we’ll see.

    “use the old JPEG format to ensure you're getting the highest quality images possible.” Um… did you really mean to say that?
