  • Download macOS and Catalina/Mojave patcher from this page: dosdude1.com/c...
    Apple has certain hardware requirements for installing macOS Catalina and Mojave. So if you download macOS on an unsupported Mac, you get and error message "this version of macOS [10.15.7 or 10.14.6] cannot be installed on this computer" depending upon the OS that you are trying to install. Here in this video, I'm showing the way I fixed the said error message in the App Store by using Catalina Patcher app by dosdude (Collin).
    I have successfully installed macOS Catalina (10.15) on my iMac 2011. My iMac has an AMD GPU and because of this graphics card is not functional on my system. But if your Mac has a non-AMD GPU (5xxx or 6xxx) you can use this method to run Catalina and Mojave on unsupported Macs, and that too with GPU support. So in this way could effectively bypass "this version of macOS cannot be installed on this computer" error messages for App Store downloads, and macOS installer app.

    These videos where the author assumes you can understand all he's doing are annoying as hell. Some tasks can be demonstrated without a word being spoken. Not this one!! YOU understand all the steps so you assume WE will understand what you're doing. Not the case at all, friend.

    Great job.
    Is it necessary to reinstall the system?
    Since many are already at 10.15 is there any alternative to not return to High Sierra and then return to Catalina?
    Thank you anyway!!
