Which Mac operating systems are compatible?
I have a 2006 15-inch MacBook Pro.I have upgraded the RAM to 3GB, and I have 9GB of free hard drive space. I'm looking to upgrade the OS since it's currently running Snow Leopard (10.6.8), and not much software is compatible with it anymore. This software does not work anymore with this version of the operating system (or similar) So I installed a version of Mac OS X 10.6 (the one I got with my old iMac) and now it seems to work fine. Sometimes a few programs crash, and so I thought installing 10.6 wasn't the right way to go either.
The version of macOS that came with your Mac is the earliest version compatible with that Mac. To find out whether your Mac is compatible with a later version of macOS, check the system requirements:
