El Capitan Date Install

El Capitan Date Install

I was trying to install OSX Yosemite on an older mac for a friend but got this message over and over even after changing it to the correct date 4/12/18. Then I changed the year to 2014 and then it worked. It needed to have the date range for Yosemite not the current date. So frustrating thanks for the tips.

To get the latest features and maintain the security, stability, compatibility, and performance of your Mac, it's important to keep your software up to date. Apple recommends that you always use the latest macOS that is compatible with your Mac.

Learn how to upgrade to macOS Big Sur, the latest version of macOS.

Check compatibility

The version of macOS that came with your Mac is the earliest version it can use. For example, if your Mac came with macOS Big Sur, it will not accept installation of macOS Catalina or earlier.

If a macOS can't be used on your Mac, the App Store or installer will let you know. For example, it might say that it's not compatible with this device or is too old to be opened on this version of macOS. To confirm compatibility before downloading, check the minimum hardware requirements:
