But idea is they don’t want you using it and it’s not supported. I’m not familiar with Mac on how to do it. I know on Windows people have found ways to change Registry. There’s no official way to get rid of it. They’ve got everybody so terrified these days they are getting away with literal murder. I know the Windows world has a lot more such problems, but in all I don’t see the reason for the general panic about “security”. And I’ve had to deal with “ransomware” attacks a couple times, again years ago. I’ve been using the Mac intensively since 1988, and I think I’ve seen maybe one “virus”, ca. He doesn’t use it much, and it does what he needs, so why spend a lot of money for a newer one? The relentless upgrade treadmill gets old after 38 years. And on my friend’s 2008 iMac, which is what got me into this as I’m trying to help him with something. It’s the latest version that will run on this 2008 MacBook, which I keep around for occasional tasks like using old software that won’t run on my newer MacBook Pro, where of course I am using the latest Brave. Means you’re way behind on security and all. So it’s been a little over 3 years since nobody supported it. This version of Mac lost all support back around October 2019.

I click on the X to the right to dismiss the alert, but when I reopen Brave the alert is there again.Ĭan anybody tell me how to dismiss this alert, so it won’t keep appearing in windows/tabs? This computer is using OS X 10.11.” Yeah, I know that.

However, when it opens, it always shows an alert: “To get future Brave updates, you’ll need macOS 10.13 or later. So I installed that version in the MacBook. (It’s Chromium 104 that demands macOS 10.13 High Sierra.) So I had to go hunting around the Web, finally found a bunch of old versions at /, and by downloading several, found that the latest Brave that will run in El Capitan is v.1.41.100 - Chromium 1.134. So far as I can tell, there’s no way to get old versions of Brave from Brave’s own download page? Nor is there any way to determine which version is needed for El Capitan. It won’t run the latest Brave, so I had to find a version that will run. I want to install Brave on a 2008 model MacBook, running Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan (the latest version it can run).
