[QUOTE="upnorth, post: 994572, member: 38832"] Since macbook pro 2010 officially only support up to El Capitan ( EC ), and EC is not getting any official updates ( last one 2018 ) anymore, personal I would try to get my hands on a few years newer macbook so you simply would be able to run a still supported OS. If that would be a pro or air, doesn't matter as it still will automatic save you a lot of unnecessary headaches being forced learn and fix problems with another OS or getting unknown errors from some Youtubers " advice " that you risk have to hunt down and try to fix, when all you want and should need is to spend time to learn the basics with your machine and the OS itself. Enjoy yourself. :coffee:🍪🍨🍷 I do understand you bought this recent, but IMO you still need to get the very basic security updates available and that you can only do easy and without waste a extreme amount of time elsewhere, with another newer machine.
