WojciechZed Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I just downloaded the FM21 demo and as I hit start I get this message. Is there a way around this, or would I have to buy a different Mac (obviously not going to do that) in order to play? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need to buy a new mac, but you would need to upgrade your operating system to at least version 10.13 to play the game (upgrades are free via Apple store or can be found online).

WojciechZed Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share Posted November 25, 2020 Ah so I can upgrade if for free? That's good. I was thinking, the Mac I have isn't that old so it would be shocking if it was already out of date and I'd have to buy another. Does upgrading it potentially mess up things I could do before or prevent me from playing previous FMs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolloViola Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I'm currently playing it on Mac/Big Sur updated to last patch and everything works fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Getafe Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 FM will only run on OS versions higher than 10.13, so every OS below that has been deemed too old for FM21. You can upgrade to the last OS via Apple or find the installer files for other versions online, but I would definitely make a backup of your system first, just in case. Either via TimeMachine on an external drive, or use cloud storage to back up all you files first, then do a system upgrade. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like to run some older software (or FM prior to FM17) I would recommend that one. (10.14) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
