Installing DaVinci Resolve 16.2.8 on macOS High Sierra 10.13.6
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2024
- With the latest version of DaVinci Resolve not working on my old iMac anymore, I wondered which version of DaVinci Resolve still worked on it AND where to get it.
Fortunately the guys from Blackmagic Design keeps an archive of all their software releases here:
www.blackmagic...
which is where I found the macOS installer for version 16.2.8 [the last version supported on macOS High Sierra]
This video covers the basic steps followed to get it installed.

yeah i tried everything you did exactly the same and it still gave me the error
Thanks, but the video quality is not so good..... Not possible to see whats going on in detail on your screen.
Yeah - for some reason the captured screen did not render well - that's why I added the comments on screen to guide.
I may try to re-do this video in future
@@LazyManJoe What graphics card did you install it with?
@@andresgiraldo4377 my iMac is an old Mid 2010 model which has an ATI Radeon HD 5670 512MB card :-). And this is the one I used to install this version of DaVinci Resolve and it works fine.
When I captured the video for the channel, I used a USB capture card - but I think it messed up the resolution.
I hope to fix this soon & re-publish the video with better results.
error. my mac 10.13 wants to have higher versions. mac 11 and up. :(
Hi there, this normally happens when the version you downloaded (Da Vinci Resolve 16.x.x) is maybe 1 version later than supported on your Mac (10.13).
I had to go back to previous versions of Da Vinci until I found a working version.
It is a pain, but the only way I could find the latest supported version on my Mac at that point.
Thank you!!!
Hi, i downloded and they asking to install mac os 11 or up is required , what shall i do?
Hi @shameemm467 - if the installer asks for macOS 11 it means you need to download an earlier version of Davinci. I had to work my way back through the list of installers to find one which worked.
On my Mac the eventual version that worked was Davinci 16.2.8, but it depends on your Mac and OS - so you will have to use trial & error to find a working combination.
Also remember that you won't be able to upgrade from that version once you have a working version and you will need to stick with it, as the next version may require an upgraded OS.
This is a very tedious process to find a working combination.
The other option is to try Davinci Resolve 16 as a base to know whether version 16 onwards will work on your machine (and then install each update until it doesn't work anymore) - if this doesn't work, then try Davinci Resolve 15.3.1 (which was the last 15 release) as this release states macOS 10.12.6 Sierra as a minimum.
It's stuck on loading devinchi resolve
Not opening
Hi @arshhealthplanet - I originally did this quite some time ago on my old Mac at that stage and I have to say it was quite a struggle to find a working version of DaVinci as well.
I do recall also having an issue with a version of DaVinci which did not seem to want to open and I think it is related to the graphic card drivers.
Either try rebooting the Mac (doesn't always help, but sometimes ...🙂); or try an earlier version of DaVinci Resolve.
I went through countless install/uninstall sequences to get a working version.
Good luck!
Hello. thank you for the video. I have High Sierra. I followed the steps in the video but unfortunately, it is not letting me install it because it asks for system 11.0 onwards.??? Can you help me, please?
Hi Jona - the only thing I can think of for this is that the version you’re trying to install will only work on later versions of MacOS (I assume when you say system 11.0 onwards you mean the next version of MacOS after High Sierra).
If the version of DaVinci you tried doesn’t work, you need to try an earlier version (& if that doesn’t work, even an earlier version)
The process can be very tedious and once you find a working version, you will have to stick to that going forward as you won’t be able to upgrade DaVinci as the upgrade will require an upgraded version of MacOS as well 😅
@@LazyManJoe thank you, I´ll try
it crashes on me everytime i load it up
i have a problem where it says that they cannot find any opencl/cuda capable gpu on my 2011 mac high sierra with a Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
Hi - I had a similar issue previously and that meant I had to go to an even older version of Resolve
Hi, thanx 4 video & links, idont have de license number, do you?
It doesn't give me the option to use the trial version
TnX again
Hi, make sure not to download the Studio version but rather the normal one - it does not require a license key.
The Studio version is the paid version & thus needs a key.
i keep on getting DaVici resolve could not find any opencl/cuda capable GPU. I've installed 16.2.8 to 16.2.6 and none of them are working. which version would you recommend that works?
Hi, unfortunately I don't have access to my old iMac anymore and would not be able to assist.
Like I mentioned in previous replies, I had to go through trial-n-error to find a version which worked.
Painful, but the only way to find the version 🙂
it ask for activation code
You need to check the download and download the free version (NOT Studio) - the Studio version is paid for, but there is a free version.
what is activation code for davenci resolve
Use the free version (not studio) and no activation code required
Help me please.

Which version of DaVinci are you installing ?
@@LazyManJoe I have the same mac 2011 sierra, I would like to know what version of davinci works with my Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB, graphics card that comes with the mac or what solution I can have since I cannot run the program due to this same problem. Do you know any solution, I would really appreciate it.

You may have to check on the Blackmagicdesign.com website under support to see which versions of graphic cards are supported.
For me it was a long process of elimination to find a working install.
thak youu
Will it work on a mac mini 8gb i5 with high sierra?
Hi there - I do not have access to a machine with that spec, but checking the Blackmagicdesign support page, it looks like DaVinci Resolve 15.3 is supported on Sierra & High Sierra.
www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/readme/d0f9756f05c54b85b78ed05f914d519f
Minimum requirements: macOS 10.12.6 Sierra
I suggest you try DaVinci Resolve 15.3 🙂
@@LazyManJoe Thank you
Is it running well?
Hi there - it was working well enough to do basic editing work, I have however since repurposed my iMac into a machine running Ubuntu with Docker, to "play" and explore new stuff.
it asks activation code
Hi - make sure you download the free version of DaVinci Resolve.
The Studio version requires a key/activation code.
@@LazyManJoe Thanks Fixed!
@@LazyManJoe thank you
@@kalkidanabdela873 i can't find the free version where did you get it? thanks
