Another massive thanks to everyone who has viewed this video. At the time of writing it has hit 118000 views. I’m absolutely blown away! If anyone is looking to upgrade to Monterey, I have a new guide. Just click here ruclips.net/video/04CQFCXtVqU/видео.html It’s a little longer than the Catalina guide but I guide you through step by step just as I did in this one. This one only went live on Saturday so it would be great if you could all take a look, like and share! Please let me know in the comments of that video if you have done both updates!
The downloading and everything else went well but it says the Catalina i downloaded is damaged and I'm now stuck at recovery mode And i have no idea how to get out off there
hi am using macbook pro 2011, i want to use this system for a while despite it being old, my question is if i am to do this upgrade to catallna will there be any problems running the latest app versions on my system lets say in a few months
Ok y’all so he left out an EXTREMELY IMPORTANT detail in this otherwise beautifully explained video. When it’s time to restart. Hold option/alt the ENTIRE TIME it’s restarting. So hold option/alt THEN press restart. You’re still holding. When the screen goes black, you’re still holding. When it comes back on, you’re still holding. Then it’ll pop up,
Great video! Really grateful to the dosdudes team for giving the old macs an opportunity to upgrade to the latest OS. Apart from the outstanding and quick explanation youve given here, theres a couple of points missing. 1) WHILE RESTARTING, MAKE SURE YOU PRESS ALT TILL IT REACHES THE BOOT UP SCREEN ELSE YOU WILL JUST GET A REGULAR USER RESTART. 2) After youve done with the steps up until 4:30 in the video, you will be shown the same macOS utilities screen, which is missed here. Now select macOS post install and APPLY PATCHES in the subsequent window and just wait it out for the pc to do its thing and after a good 5-10mins it should reboot all by itself into your branch new macOS catalina!! Again, thanks for the quick and straight to the point video.
I watched a previous video on the same subject and followed directions and it bricked my iMac. I did it again using your methods and it worked great. Thanks so much !!
Video is awesome .. Easy to follow ... but he forgets to mention , that you must hold down the OPTION key .. before restarting ... besides that very good video - Thanks you saved my life
thanks you so much! had a 2008 mac which was borderline useless but with this update i’m going to keep it for a couple more years now, as everything is running smoothly

@@kurniaeka5324 Catalina runs 64bit vs the 32 of your old MS Office. Just buy a more recent version of MS Office for Mac that's 64bit. (We had the same issue.)
Hi. I am about to do the same thing on an early 2011 MacBook Pro 8.1. Did you follow also the procedure to disable the GPU? How did it worked out for you? Thanks
LOL there are several things you should have said: You have to boot the computer holding down the option key while having the USB stick plugged in The USB stick must be at least 16GB Need at least 4GB RAM for it to run correctly, and you better save your datas, open disk utility once you have booted to the USB drive and format the internal hard drive, installing onto a blank drive that isn't currently running an older system will result in better performance, this is called a clean install.
Hugely interesting and huge thanks for your thoughtfulness in doing this tuto. Q? : what happens to the contents of the mac OS previously installed = does the upgrade eliminate all the elements from the HD or do we have to manually trash the elements? Many thanks for a reply.
TYSM, IT WORKED, I CAN FINALLY DOWNLOAD APPLICATIONS THAT REQUIRE 10.15 TYSM and credits to the comments, they gave me some more info on things you forgot to mention :D
Finally a operating system that works on my old obsolete os x Yosemite!!! In middle of downloading hopefully i dont jinx it. So far so good though!! Thanks dude!!!
Thanks for this video, I was struggling because the downloads would start but then stall. I have high speed internet. I finally decided to lug my 2009 iMac upstairs and connect it directly to the router and voila, Catalina is now installed 😊
When your iMac was stalling, did you have to go back and restart the computer again to restart the process? My iMac has been currently sitting on the white loading screen for a few hours. I just plugged it in to the router. Should i restart the computer again?
Unfortunately does not works. Tried on macbook 5.1 mid 2009 running El Capitan. When verifying gives the error massage " mac OS Catalina Patcher " can not be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. Security preferences can not be set to download from " anywhere " only from Mac App store and identified developers option is available. Please review this video.
damn, i was stuck at sierra for a long time.tried several videos including open patcher.this is the only procedure that works for me, im upgrading it now to big sur. hope it works.😂
Thought your video was very well done. Went though your video step by step but can't get it to install. Keeps going back to the macOS utilities to Reinstall. My iMac is a 2008 that had El Capitan 10.11.6 with 6gb ram on it. it's a brick now. Any help would be nice. This was my learning the Mac computer.
finally one that actually gives me the mac os installer. All the other ones told me to go to the app store like TF it blocks be from downloading it bc my macs too old.
Thanks to everyone who has commented, viewed and liked this video. It was 2 years ago that I created the video (as we were in lockdown) but it's now up to almost 90,000 views which is mind-blowing! I haven't uploaded anything to the channel for quite a while as work has made this tricky. If anyone would like to see some more hints/tips/reviews please let me know!

Please let me know and share the video as and when you can.
I did all the steps, after restarting the mac, the initial install went great, but the main install is taking about 6 hours for now.. do I just let it run? or do I shut it down and start again?
An error occured while restoring base system. Dmg. Ensure that your target installer volume is formatted as "macOS Extended (journaled) " ( HFS+), then try the tool again........... What I have to do???
Hi! First of all thanks so much for this video! I like my 2014 air because of its USB ports and sd slots and i really wanted to keep it for my GIS, so thanks to you i can now use my arcgis for studies! Quick question though, now that it is updated to Catalina it is now giving me the opportunity to update to Big Sur 11.6.1-12.43. If i update it will it be able to handle this update as well? Or should i stop at Catalina??
I think the patch will not let you update to Big Sur. I am unsure whether there is a patch for Big Sur but a Google should work that out. Perhaps run Catalina for a while and make sure it is stable before doing any upgrades.
It installed and I got a pop-up after it installing saying firmware update required. Says A system firmware update is required on this machine in order to boot from APFS volumes.

Please help me out, my mac suddenly shut down while creating a bootable device, and it was about 50% done when this happened, when I on mac back, I couldn't get the option to create a bootable device again, how do I go about it please? Am on MacBook pro mid 2012
When I click untitled it gives me error saying ensure that your target installer volume is formatted as macOs extended can you please help me with that. Thanks
What happens if your Mac says volume is too small? When I choose macOS Catalina patch and plug in the usb I get a Volume Too Small error stating I must use a volume that is 10 gb or larger and I am using a 16 gb usb

Catalina on my 2011 i7 13" with 500gb HDD and 4 gigs of ram is awfully slow. Reverted back to High Sierra. Just not worth it without an SSD and 8 gigs of ram. Bdw I recently got a new M1 MacBook Air. Planning on selling this old pal. It's been more than 10 years anyways and I don't wanna spend money on it especially since I have got a newer M1 MacBook Air with Big Sur. What's the point?
