Is your Trusty old Mac capable of being upgraded to macOS High Sierra? Here's the low down according to Apple of what will be supported. If your Mac is not on the list, it's time to consider upgrading while your venerable Mac is at peak value. Do consider the Apple refurb store for a source of great value Macs with full as new warranty. Note that iOS 11 will support all iPhones and iPads that are 64 bit but not 32 bit processor devices. That means that any iPhones made prior to the iPhone 5S are not going to be upgradeable. That means non-upgradeable iOS devices includes the iPhone 5, iPhone 5C, iPhone 4S, and iPad 4 and earlier. — PING!

Nope. I’m running a 13”, late 2006 model. Shootfire, many things don’t run on it no more.

No, mine cannot. I had checked that out before and knew it wouldn’t.

It’s a mid-2009 MacBook Pro.

(I’m trying to get my husband to buy a new MBP so I can have his present one which will run Sierra.)

iMac 2016 Check
iPhone 6 Check
iPad Air Check

For the record. The latest Firefox on iMac works great. Think it’s better than Safari on the iMac alone.

Safari is better on the iPad. It’s toss up on the iPhone.

The way the iPhones work. Looks like the max time you get with an iPhone, for iOS, updates that work is 5 years.

However, with iPad you get more at least 7 years of free upgrades and counting. Not bad and pretty good bang for your buck.
