macOS Sonoma Now Supported
Computing Services finished assessing Apple's latest operating system, macOS Sonoma, for compatibility with our core software and services. We are pleased to announce support for Sonoma on both personal and university-owned computers.
During testing, we found that Sonoma is incompatible with all versions of IBM SPSS Statistics and Tableau Desktop products. Visit Operating System Support for more information.
If you aren’t sure if you should upgrade, check with your department. Desktop Support Program (DSP) customers should contact DSP at dsp@andrew.cmu.edu or 412-268-4357 (HELP) before upgrading.
