MacBook – Most Compatible Software for MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2014)

catalinamacbook pro

I managed to upgrade to Sierra 10.12.6. Whats the next step for me? MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2014) Processor: 1.4 GHz Intel Core i5 Memory: 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 5000 1536 MB

I want to have the latest yet most compatible software! Catalina from Appstore is still not installing '…target volume failed' Should I download a previous software (High Sierra or Mojave) the same way I downloaded Sierra? If yes then which one is the best one for my MacBook and its health…? also do you have a download link for your recommendation?

MacBook Air Early 2014 allows to update to macOS Catalina (10.15), even the yet unreleased macOS BigSur (11.0) will run on it.

I suggest to use macOS Recovery installer with opt + cmd + R during a restart to upgrade to the latest macOS that is compatible with your Mac.
