I do practically anything related to computers and electronics, including programming, repairing devices, and circuit/PCB design. I specialize in component-level board repair on Apple Macintosh computers, and programming. MacOS Catalina won't work on older Macs, but thanks to dosdude1's patcher, it can!

Macos El Capitan Patcher.dmg Download Jun 13, 2016 MacPro1,1 and 2,1 can run OS X El Capitan with the methods noted in the spoiler below, but are currently not supported by macOS Sierra due to a lack of SSE 4 support (the CPU can be upgraded but its firmware does not support newer SSE 4-compatible CPUs).
With yesterday’s software updates El Capitan fell off the security patch bandwagon, as expected. Apply historically only patches software for the current software plus two versions prior. So that means Mojave, High Sierra, and Sierra. The good news though, is that if you have a compatible computer software upgrades from Apple are free.
After a long period of time apple Release macOS Sierra after Mac OS X El Capitan. MacOS Sierra brought a new journy for their users with parity cool and amazing features. Dosdude1 Sierra Patch macOS Sierra is no longer the newest or prettiest operating system for Mac users. But still holds up.
Not sure what version you are running? Here’s how to find out. Don’t assume that you’re on the latest version because your computer automatically updates itself. Normally auto-update only installs updates for your current software. Usually it will offer to upgrade you to a new version once, but if you dismiss the offer to upgrade it doesn’t persist. You then have to choose to get it from the Mac App Store.
- I don't see any system folder in the usb installer, only 3 items, efi folder, efi-backups folder and the install OS X el capitan file. No system folder? How do I apply this patch?, the other times there was a command you used but it was a tar file, this is two sepatate files.
- Early 2008 imac won't boot using the dosdude1 catalina/high sierra patcher I've been trying to update my old iMac(8.1) that is running El Capitan at the moment, using your patcher. Sadly this did not work.
If you have a computer running El Capitan still I highly recommend you upgrade to a newer version if possible, or retire your computer if it cannot be upgraded. As security holes are found, Apple will no longer patch El Capitan. And at some point shortly after that software developers will stop making their software compatible which you’ll first notice means your web browser will stop functioning properly on the internet.
If you insist on keeping an obsolete computer please be careful and be aware of the risks. You should at the very least stop using Safari since that’s communicating directly with the internet and is no longer going to get updated. Firefox is a good alternative because they often support system software for two years longer than Apple does. Google Chrome only maintains support about one year after.
As an alternative to completely retiring the computer, you can install an alternate OS such as Linux, but the specifics of that are far more than I could cover in this post.
Dosdude1 High Sierra Patcher
For most people, I would suggest upgrading to macOS Mojave if your Mac supports it. Mojave will receive security patches until the fall of 2021. High Sierra will get security patches until fall of 2020, and Sierra until the

macOS High Sierra can run on any:

Download High Sierra on the Mac App Store.
macOS Sierra has the same requirements as High Sierra, so if you can I’d suggest going to High Sierra because it will receive security patches for longer. But if for some reason you’d rather move to Sierra you can download Sierra on the Mac App Store.
