Owners of recent MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac mini, Mac Studio, and Mac Pro models can upgrade to the latest version of macOS.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apple\u2019s compatibility strategy has become increasingly predictable since completing its transition from Intel processors. The company has continued to support older Apple Silicon systems while reserving some advanced features for newer chips.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As such, Intel-based Macs won\u2019t be able to run macOS 27 when the operating system is released this fall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Users can verify their Mac by clicking the Apple menu, then selecting \u201cAbout This Mac\u201d to see the machine\u2019s model name and processor information needed to determine compatibility.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following Apple\u2019s transition to its own processor hardware in 2023, the company has since optimized macOS features around the performance, efficiency, and machine learning capabilities of its custom chips. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the operating system supports a wide range of hardware, some features may require newer processors. Apple has increasingly limited certain artificial intelligence and machine learning features to more recent devices, particularly those that depend on on-device processing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Via AppleInsider and developer.apple.com<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.powerpage.org\/wwdc-apple-confirms-that-macos-golden-gate-27-will-only-run-on-apple-silicon-hardware\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WWDC: Apple confirms that macOS Golden Gate 27 will only run on Apple Silicon hardware&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[52,53,63,54,50,51],"class_list":["post-268116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-macintosh","tag-imac","tag-mac-mini","tag-mac-pro","tag-mac-studio","tag-macbook-air","tag-macbook-pro"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/268116"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=268116"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/268116\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=268116"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=268116"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=268116"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
