Below are the latest updates regarding macOS devices within the UCLA Health
environment.

Upgrading your macOS

We are excited to announce that the UCLA Health IT teams have confirmed
compatibility of our commonly used applications with Apple’s newest macOS,
Sonoma.

If you are interested in upgrading your IT-
managed device to Sonoma, please make sure
to contact Customer Care with your computer

you with the upgrade.

UCLA Health IT teams have confirmed
compatibility with commonly used applications
and the Big Sur and Monterey macOS. To
upgrade, you’ll need to update the commonly
used applications to their latest and compatible
versions. If you are interested in upgrading your
