Step by step guide to install macOS Big Sur on your Mac. Now you can try macOS Big Sur on your Mac. The WWDC20 of the day before yesterday left us news on all Apple operating systems and, immediately after the end of the event, the developers could already install the first beta versions to test all the news. This year you don’t need to be a developer to test these betas, so you can now install iOS 14 or iPadOS 14 on your iPhone and iPad and watchOS 7 on your Apple Watch.
Now let’s move on to macOS Big Sur, the new Apple operating system for Mac that also has a first beta available. The interface has changed, as well as many other new features, and now we will tell you how to install this version on your Mac.
How to install macOS Big Sur beta on MAC
Apple has also released the first beta for macOS Big Sur developers and we can install it on our devices by following these steps. However, first of all, you should be aware that this is a beta and that the system may not work properly. Likewise, some of the applications you use daily on your Mac may not be compatible, so install it at your own risk. And most importantly, never do it on a device you use to work.
- The first thing to do is to check if your Mac is compatible with macOS 11 Big Sur.
- From your Mac, access the BetaProfiles website.
- Click macOS 11 and download it.
- It will download a.dmg file that we need to install on our Mac.
- Once installed, it will appear as another update in > About This Mac> Software Update.
- Click Update Now and the new system will be installed on our Mac.
In macOS Big Sur everything has been completely redesigned, from the Dock icons to the top bar, in a way that reminds us of a lot of iOS and iPadOS. The new system will arrive on all compatible Macs this fall, although you can already try it if you are curious, even if we advise you to pay attention, to go back you have to restore your Mac.
