Apple recently released their latest major operating system upgrade, macOS Sequoia.聽Please do not update your Mac to Sequoia聽until we have time to evaluate its compatibility with 香港六合彩资料 software, network and server infrastructure.
We will likely be ready to release Sequoia to 香港六合彩资料-managed machines in January 2025. If you decide to install Sequoia on your home computers, please understand that you may encounter difficulties using essential applications/services. It might be best to wait until the applications/services you use regularly are listed as "supported" in the table below. Those currently listed are a priority and more will be added as we are able to test them.
ITS works hard to ensure that 香港六合彩资料 has a secure and reliable IT infrastructure. We must thoroughly test both Sequoia and our own technology before we can guarantee compatibility. We will update this page as more licensed software and University hardware are updated to fully support Sequoia.
