Also not getting Tahoe. Do we need to be on 15.7 to get it?

No. I'm currently updating directly from 15.6.1 (currently in the "preparing" stage).

M4 Mac mini. Same here, no Tahoe, only 15.7. Running Tahoe RC on a M4 MacBook Air, it still shows "up to date". iOS 26 is downloading on iPhone.

I have a m4 studio and a 2019 Intel Mac I can upgrade the Intel Mac to OS26 by not the studio as of 10:35 Pacific time

 

[byron_hinson]

Surprised it was being released on the same day as iOS 26 - doesn't it usually release a week or so later?

MacBook Air M4 and MacBook Pro M4 Pro, both only being offered 15.7, no mention of 26.

 

[abenamu]

I don't even get 15.7 on MBP Intel 15".

Do you guys still do clean installs? I use to but not sure how relevant it is in the modern world… I think last year I urgaded and then erased it for fresh install

 

[Black0ut21]

I think MR Jump the gun or the auto post posted to early

M4 Mac mini. Only 15.7 showing up for me.

Same here.

 

[JordanCautious]

I don't see MacOS 26 on my M2 MacBook Air. I only saw (and updated) to Sequoia 15.7

 

[rmiller065]

[revenire]

[Robin Bonathan]

same and I'm on a M4 MacBookAir 🤷

same here, no update of yet to macOS 26

 

[rohirrimrider]

do you have to go to 15.7 to see Tahoe?

I am in 15.7 and I can't see Tahoe.

 

[lee647]

if its not showing up yet, then its not actually available yet idk why macrumors says it is when its not

 

[Terry2023]

Looks like Apple PUNTED and pushed a 15.7 INSTEAD of 26 for MacOS and iOS. I got iPadOS 26 a week ago, but I was on the developer beta.

I haven't done a clean OS X/macOS install since 2006.

 

[firstcitazen]

Mac mini M4 on RC got the update, Studio MAX nothing. Everything in the house updating but my Mac Studio lol

 

[ConradRoentgen]

It's like this every year, people. They roll out the releases slowly on release day. It's frustrating, but it's normal Apple behavior.

 

[macuser6767]

same and I'm on a M4 MacBookAir 🤷

pretty sure they're just rolling it out in groups.

Same, with my M1 MacBook Air.

pretty sure they're just rolling it out in groups.

That's what I think. Hope it'll be available before dinnertime, so my M1 Air can upgrade as I eat with the family. I've already done a Time Machine backup last night as well, just in case something goes wrong.

I usually do clean installs every few years. This is one of the years. I'll be upgrading, checking a few things and then erase/clean installing.

 

[RafaelHO]

MacBook Air M4 here, on 26RC, not showing the final yet

No, it's there for some of us. Just takes a while to proliferate through their CDN infrastructure.

with computers, i recommend clean installs, but not with mobile devices
