New BoardID
I keep an index of all Mac BoardID’s on this page.
What is the minimum and maximum macOS Version my Mac can run?
Do you need to downgrade or upgrade macOS on your Mac? This page will show you the oldest and newest version of macOS that you can install on your Mac.
Can I upgrade or downgrade macOS? How many times has this question come up over the years? Probably hundreds if not thousands of times. Mac Hardware has a minimum and maximum version of macOS that can be installed. MacOS versions that come before or after the minimum and maximum listed OS do not have the correct drivers required. At a certain point Apple will decide that a Mac is no longer supported and will not include drivers.
Internet Recovery Version
If your Mac supports Internet Recovery, you can use this guide to find out which version of macOS you will get using the following options.
Newest OS – Option-⌘-R
This option will be the newest or latest version of macOS that can be installed on your Mac.
Shipping OS (Oldest OS Available) – Shift-Option-⌘-R
The “Shipping OS Version” is the macOS version that your Mac originally shipped with from the factory. This is the IR Version that you will see if you use Shift-Option-⌘-R.
NOTE! The “Shipping OS can change to a newer OS release as the hardware gets older. An example of this is a MacBook Pro released with 10.13 but later is shipped with 10.14.

8. Xserve – (2006-2009)
I almost forgot about Xserve. How could I forget about one of my favorite most reliable Macs ever created? The Xserve was introduced on May 14, 2002. The First Generation was based on a G4 Processor. The 2nd Generation was based on the G5 and the 3rd and final Generation was based on Intel’s Xeon Processor.

macOS Catalina 10.15.1 Supplemental Update (19B2106) & Forked Full Installer.
The much-awaited MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) was just released this morning! You can’t get it just yet, but very soon. (November 15th)
To accompany the new 16″ MacBook Pro, we have a forked Build Version of macOS Catalina 10.15.1 (19B2106) Installer.app. We also have a macOS Catalina 10.15.1 supplemental update.
The macOS Catalina 10.15.1 supplemental update improves the stability and reliability of displays and peripherals with MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019).
Catalina 10.15.1 supplemental update notes
Supplemental Update ? (UPDATE)
I am not sure what’s going on with this update. You would think that all the new 16″ MacBook Pro’s would just ship with (19B2106). If not then what is the Supplemental update for ?
I am downloading the Supplemental Update now so I can investigate.
UPDATE!
I found the MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) shipping 10.15.1 Build Version.
10.15.1 (19B2093)
This means that as soon as you receive the new 16″ MacBook Pro, the 10.15.1 Supplemental Update (19B2106) will show as available.
No, we didn’t time travel 3 weeks into the past. A new version of macOS Mojave 10.14.5 (18F2059) was released yesterday.
Today for some reason and maybe for the first time, Apple released an update to a previous full installer release. The previous build version macOS 10.14.5 (18F2058) was released on July 9th and covered the new 2019 13″ MacBook Pro and 2019 MacBook Air. Apple released MacOS Mojave 10.14.6 (18G84) on July 22 and unified all builds. That means you can install 10.14.6 on any Mac.
I honestly have no clue! Again since 10.14.6 is a unified build we should have no need for a updated installer of a previous build. A user in MacAdmins Slack mentioned that this might be an update to 2058 for the factory restores. If that was the case why was it just now released and not 3 weeks ago? Or maybe this build version was for Internet recovery or something, again though this does not make any sense since agin 10.14.6 is unified.
Today Apple Released a New Mojave 10.14.5 (18F2058) Forked Full Installer app
UPDATED: 07/10/19
In the past when Apple released a build it would start with a 2 digits followed by a letter. An example of this would be 18F132 which is a unified build of macOS Mojave 10.14.5. Just this morning Apple released new hardware which I covered here. Usually with new hardware comes a specific BuildVersion of the OS.
MacOS Mojave 10.14.5 (18F2058)
To find out if this really was a forked build, I cracked open the OSInstall.mpkg inside the new build. The build is listed as Product ID 041-69971 – 10.14.5 – 18F2058 and was released on 2019-07-09 (Today). Inside you will find the Distribution file. Inside this file you will find all the compatible boardIDs for this build. After comparing both Distribution files two new board ID’s popped up.
Mac-53FDB3D8DB8CA971 = MacBookPro15,4
Mac-226CB3C6A851A671= MacBookAir8,2
Normally when you do a Google search on a board ID you will find a hit somewhere. In this case nothing…
Ace in the hole GeekBench.com
GeekBench.com is one of the most well known benchmarking sites around. When you run a benchmark with GeekBench it will put the results in a searchable database.
Bingo!!! New Entry-Level 13″ MacBook Pro 15,4! Plus new iBridge!
Bingo, someone inside Apple ran this test or someone got an early review unit. Either way we know know what board ID Mac-53FDB3D8DB8CA971 is, a new 13″ MacBook Pro! Also notice the new iBridge/BridgeOS 16.16.5601.0.0,0. The Benchmark was only ran 6 days ago!
Matches the 1.7 Ghz of the GeekBench Score.
What is Mac-226CB3C6A851A671?
UPDATE: Found! MacBookAir8,2
Not totally sure yet, the best guess right now would be the updated 2019 MacBook Air. I will have to wait to confirm, when I find out I will update this post.
Found it!
Found! MacBookAir8,2
You can only download and install 10.14.5 (18F2058) on the newly released hardware.
As usually with forked builds you can only install this BuildVersion on the newly released hardware. You will also only be able to download this version using the Mac App Store or instalinstallmacos.py on said new hardware. Trying to download this from the Mac App Store on older hardware will get you the old 18F132 or 18F203. If you try to download (18F2058) using installinstallmacos.py using older hardware you will get Installer: Error – ERROR_90F0494CE3 Product installation failed or one of the very similar number errors.
This version is only recommended for the new hardware.
2018-19 15″ T2 MacBook Pro Supplemental Update.10.14.5 (18F203)
Apple today released a MacBook Pro Supplemental Update for 2018-19 T2 15″ MacBook Pros.
Update 05/24/19 9:00AM: I have updated this article to include BuildVersion info and Apple Download Links.I will continue to add more information when I find it.
The MacBook Pro Supplemental Update is specifically targeted at 15″ 2018 & 2019 T2 MacBook Pros with 10.14.5. The update does NOT show up as available for 10.14.4 and lower OS versions. The update weighs in at 946.8mb.
UPDATE: After the update is installed the BuildVersion number will be (18F203). BridgeOS will also be updated and listed as 16.16.5200.0.0,0.
2018 T2 15″ MacBook Pro Supplemental Update
This update is only available for boardID’s Mac-937A206F2EE63C01 MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018) & Mac-1E7E29AD0135F9BC MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018) with a Vega ATI Graphics card. Looks like the 2019 models share the same boardID’s.
MacBook Pro Supplemental Update Download link and information
Apple also released a new 10.14.5 macOS Installer.app, the BuildVersion is (18F203).
UPDATE: The (18F203) Install macOS Mojave .app installer is so far seems to be for 2018 15″ T2’s. I have gone through the boardID’s of 10.14.4 install.app and 10.14.5 18F203 and found no new board id’s that would identify the new 2019 MacBook Pros.
10.14.5 (18F203)
This update weighs in at 6.51gb and has a Product ID number of 041-64745. You will be only able to download this installer if you are using a 2018 or 2019 15″ T2 MacBook Pro.
I ran some more tests trying to download the Install macOS Mojave.app (18F203). It seems you have to be on a 2018 15″ MacBook Pro to get the download. To get it from the App store you have to be on 10.14.5 and on a 2018-19 15″ T2. If you are on any anything else and you are get the (18F132) BuildVersion. For installinstallmacos.py you have to be on a 2018 15″ T2 but can be on an OS lower than 10.14.5. I tested this with a 2018 15″ T2 on 10.14.4 and was able to use installinstallmacos.py to down download the .app (18F203) installer. But the build failed on a 10.13.6 2018 15″ T2. Also the boardID list for (18F203) is exactly the same as (18F132), so it doesn’t seem to be a 2019 MacBook Pro Fork.
SUS 10.14.5 (18E203)
Is 10.14.5 (18F203) a hybrid fork?
Is the 10.14.5 (18F203) installer.app a hybrid fork or was it an error on the installer compatibility list ? Meaning I can only download this installer if I am on a 2018-19 15″ T2, but once downloaded I can install this version of the installer on any 10.14 compatible Mac.
