Hi all, I’ve just purchased a MacBook Late 2007 2.2 GHz for my daughter. I have a Mac Pro myself but this was ideal for her for Uni. I’ve downloaded Chrome which is fine however when I try to access LinkedIn it’s saying my Chrome is outdated. I’m not able to download an updated version to the one I have installed because I cant update from Lion. Does anyone have any ideas about getting around this. MacBook is a fab little machine but is going to prove useless unless I can sort this out for her. Many thanks, Heather
Sadly, Apple doesn’t offer support for anything newer than Lion OS-X 10.7.x officially on this system … Now we need to talk about going beyond what Apple supports. As it turns out you could upgrade to Mojave! Yes, you read that correctly. Here’s the info to setup Mojave on your system DosDude1 But before you jump you’ll want to upgrade your HDD to a SSD and I would strongly recommend getting a 1 TB or a 512 GB drive. You’ll also want to maximize your RAM to 6.0 GB too. And lastly, make sure the system is in good shape as well. The CCFL backlight lamps tend to dim from age.
There’s also a tool Called Mac Post Factor it can put 10.8 up to 10.12 on a 3,1 MacBook. Keep in mind that you will need the OS X update file for this. https://osxhackers.net/macpostfactor/
