Need to update Mac OS Monterey Intel Mac

1

It’s coming up to tax time and TurboTax does not support not work Monterey, and my Intel iMac is still on Monterey…

I have a lot of old apps that still work on it, Including Parallels 15 that I can’t afford to loose… So I am nervous about jumping all the way to Sequoia… and thinking about only going to Ventura …

But I don’t know how to Download nothing besides Sequoia.

Should I be worried about going directly to Sequoia. If so, how do I download other versions and should i go with Ventura or Sonoma or will I have issues with older apps that work on Monterey no matter what?

BTW Next year I will be able to go to Sonoma, as at tax time, I will either be retired or very close to it.

Thanks

Are you in the US.

I searched google and it looks like the first link works to show Ventura on the Store:

I didn’t click Get, so not sure if it works or not.

I searched in teh app store for ventura and did not find it… Did not think to use google because of that.

Since you have Parallels Desktop, you may install Ventura in a virtual machine and install the incompatible app(s) into it, keeping the host in Monterey.

Does the web browser version of TurboTax work?

You know, I can’t help but feel that it’s actually Monterey does not support TurboTax.
If Apple just stopped p^%&^%ing about and changing the rules, developers wouldn’t have to spend so much time running to stand still.

But that is Apple’s “modus operandi”. Jobs often stated that Apple is a Hardware Company, not a Software Company. Everything they do is to encourage/force people to buy their hardware.
