    Hey i ran into fork in the road. when i deleted the first part from disk utility in the end. all it says is to reinstall macOS Ventura not the one from the bootable disk. is there a faster way of contacting you?

      Seems like this method only works for Macs that originally started with an older OS

      This guide is for Intel based Mac devices imo so if you're on M1 or M2 it may not work.

    Hi I have a Mac Pro desktop and I have older Versions of ISO X on CD? I want to be able to downgrade to use my old Nikon film scanner and Nikon software. Do I just reinstall my old CD?

    Hi. Trying to downgrade from Big Sur to Mojave. Got as far as creating the bootable USB but when restarting in recovery and selecting Mojave, I get that circle with the slash through it icon.

      That usually means you’re trying to downgrade to an version of macOS that your computer doesn’t support, or it could be that the bootable usb drive cannot be used

      @@iOSPro I'm trying your other method that doesn't require the USB but it's offering Monterey which is an update from Big Sur which is puzzling if it's supposed to offer the oldest OS version that came with it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

      There is a good chance that your computer shipped with macOS Catalina, also I would suggest trying this with an external keyboard connected to your computer with a cable, a sticky keyboard might be why it put it in the update to latest version mode rather than downgrade mode, because the key combination option command R is the update combination, but the key combination shift option command R is the downgrade combination

      @@iOSPro Thanks. Will give that a try. The computer I'm trying to downgrade is a Macbook Pro late 2015 so we're talking about El Capitan maybe as the original OS?

    If I had an MacBook Pro, I won't be downgrade it..perhaps I will use the latest macOS version unlike the Catalina isn't running on ARM-based machine..its too old for that to run..
