4 Reasons Not to Install macOS High Sierra 10.13.5 & 10 Reasons You Should
Install If You're Using iOS 11 on your iPhone and iPad | ||||||||||||||||
 | ||||||||||||||||
If you are using iOS 11 on your iPhone or iPad you should consider installing macOS High Sierra so that you can take advantage of the new photo and video formats that Apple is using. These can save you a lot of space on your Mac, up to 40%, which means more room on your Mac, your iPhone and in iCloud. With this upgrade you will know that the photos you shoot on your iPhone will work on your Mac with no problems and with no need to convert and take up more space. Once you install macOS High Sierra and iOS 11, you will want to make sure you are using the new high efficiency photo and video formats on your iPhone. Go to Settings -> Camera -> Formats -> High Efficiency. You also get support to copy something on your Mac and paste it on your iPhone and vice versa. | ||||||||||||||||

Same question – I have a MacBook Pro Retina (Late 2013)
Seems anything over 3 months old is considered “really old” these days.

Every time I come here to read about Apple (I find this site via Google) I never get a straight answer nor opinion.
Not once do you ever dare to call the child by its name.
Are you afraid of Apple ?

Trouble with the version 10.13.4 and Safari and the slowness never seen before. I hope Apple is aware that they NEED to get a better version. I have had no problems with Firefox…

Look at the upgrade requirements information. As I recall if your Mac is 2009 or later, you should be OK.

After 50 years of writing software and managing software development programs, including operating systems, I would label the Mac high sierra software as junk software. I have version 10.13.6. Mac mail is nearly unworkable, and almost every operation leads to a spinning beachball.
Come on, guys, just make one stable version of OSX that recaptures the Mac-feel of the operating system that drew us to Macs in the first place.

Absolutely. Apple: have dancing girls careering across the screen if your sales manager imagines that’s what your 16- to 26-year old target customers want, but don’t forget, as you have done, that a lot of people actually depend on their systems WORKING, reliably, no glitches, no down-time while problems generated by your latest heap of increasingly-irrelevant software are sorted out. And glued-together hardware doesn’t impress all of us, either.
