How to find your Mac model identifier

Click the Apple menu, choose About This Mac, then System Report. Under Hardware, the "Model Identifier" row shows values like iMac11,1 or MacBookPro8,2. Match that against the list above.

The macOS Mojave Patcher is a community tool made by dosdude1. It lets many pre-2012 Intel Macs that Apple dropped from Mojave install and run the system with a patched installer.

* Model support and behaviour reflect the dosdude1 macOS Mojave Patcher. Patching an unsupported Mac is done at your own risk, and some hardware features may not work fully.
