This week Apple released macOS Tahoe for Mac devices.

If you do choose to upgrade be sure to make a backup of your data first. Here is a list of compatible devices per apple.com.

To our amazing community,

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Earth Day event at MacRevival! We weren’t sure what to expect, but thanks to over 140 people, over 400 old devices were collected and responsibly recycled. We'd like to show our appreciation to our partner Upcycle USA for working together to help reduce e-waste in our Downeast home.

It was inspiring to see our community come together for a shared cause, and we’re already thinking about the future and need your help.

We’d love to hear from you:
• How did you learn about the event?
• Would you like us to host e-waste recycling again next year?

Your feedback helps shape future events! Send your thoughts to [email protected] or you can leave a comment below.

Thank you again for helping us protect the planet!
