If apple would just update the SSL libraries on those old MacOS releases then they would be secure for web browsing. This update: Improves the reliability of VPN connections. It improves the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac. But it’s the choice between two evils, not the choice between good and bad. The OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 update is recommended for all Mavericks users. I get that - and I prefer it than buying from an advertising company who do everything in their power to get you to give up personal information and watch adverts. Now they block lock access to for 5 year old MacOS releases, but not 8 year old Windows releases.Īpple make their money from hardware - so they do everything in their power to get you to upgrade your hardware. ITunes today is worse - the latest release will run only on Mojave, but it runs on Windows 8 (an 8 year old OS) just fine.

Apple would release the latest iTunes and it would run on/support 7 year old Windows XP, but only run on the last 2 or 3 Mac OS X releases. I first encountered it years ago with iTunes. Ok - I’ve long had a gripe with this behaviour from Apple - it’s their Achilles Heel. On iOS devices, the Apple Store app now says it requires iOS 11 or later, which means it isn't available on devices with A6 or older processors that can't update past iOS 10 (iPhone 5/5c or earlier, iPad 4 or earlier, original iPad mini, iPod Touch 5 or earlier). Therefore access the Apple online store from a Mac now requires OS X Mavericks or later if using a reasonably up to date Firefox or Chrome, or OS X Yosemite or later with Safari. Requirements: Intel-based Mac or Mac with Apple silicon using macOS Big Sur 11. OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5 is too old: the last supported versions of Safari, Firefox (49.5.0esr) and Chromium (.112) are rejected by the Apple online store. The unsupported browser message does appear as described in Safari on OS X Mavericks and earlier, and in too old versions of Firefox and Chrome on any system. (Firefox still supports OS X Mavericks 10.9 and later Chrome has required OS X Yosemite 10.10 or later since late June 2018.) Even though it is a year out of date, Chromium .99 on OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 is accepted by the Apple online store. (I haven't tried Chrome but it should be the same.)ģ. 90 on OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 is accepted by the Apple online store. Firefox 67.0.2 on OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 or OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 is accepted by the Apple online store.Ģ.
