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. 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.Īpple 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. The 2017 model was sold right up until 2019, so it’s likely that quite a few are still in use. If you have the older larger model that only came in silver, it won’t be supported by Ventura. In 2018 Apple gave the MacBook Air a new look. If you have one of the 2017 MacBooks, available in gold, silver or Space Gray, you should have no problems upgrading to Ventura. This is the line of slimmer and smaller 12in MacBook models with Retina displays that Apple introduced in March 2015–except that the 2015 and 016 models are no longer included, as of Ventura.

MacBook models from 2017 or later Wondering whether the Mac you own will be able to run Ventura? We outline the Macs that are compatible with the new version of the macOS below. 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. 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.
