Flipping it over, twisting off the back, and putting in more RAM is needed immediately. I upgraded the RAM from 8GB to 16GB, but probably didn’t really need to.ġ. I got it earlier this year and putting the SSD in it was the best thing I’ve done to it. My Mac Mini 2012 is actually running really great I have one partition on Mojave and another on Catalina, plus a third I don’t use on Mountain Lion. So, if the Macbook Pro has specs that are similar to my Mac Mini (Core i5 2.5GHz, 4 GB RAM, mechanical hard drive), then I cannot recommend updating at all. produces a beachball for several seconds, and launching applications, even simple ones like "Settings", takes minutes. Every single mouse click, popup menu etc. With the last few updates, especially "Mojave", the Mac is essentially bricked - it is so slow that it is completely unusable. Unfortunately, I need to always run the very latest macOS and Xcode for app development, so there's no way I can't update.
#BEST OS FOR MAC MID 2012 UPDATE#
What I can say is that each successive macOS update made my Mac Mini (not Macbook Pro) 2012 increasingly slower.
#BEST OS FOR MAC MID 2012 32 BIT#
Ableton says Live 9 is "not fully compatible" with 10.14 it seems to work, but.)Ĭatalina is a big change in that 32 bit apps have been killed, so if you've got any legacy software you might want to hold said: Mojave wasn't a major change from High Sierra so most things that work with 10.13 should work with 10.14, however, in some cases there won't be guarantees (e.g. Note that with High Sierra Apple changed the underlying filesystem, so some apps (notably Apple's older Pro Apps Logic Pro 9, Final Cut Pro 7, etc.) don't work.
What I would suggest is looking at the apps you need to run and see if there are issues with any of these newer OS versions. To be clear here: I have a late-2013 MPB, so performance will be different. And unlike running newer iOS versions on old hardware, I haven't seen a degradation in performance with newer OSs. I'd probably still be at 10.6.8 if I could, but I've been fine running what I need to run up to Sierra (10.12). I haven't seen a compelling feature in years. To be honest, the only reason I upgrade my Mac is because I need to to run a certain application (usually something from Apple).
