Update Macbook Late 2008 Aluminum. Discussion in 'MacBook' started by AppleDogs, Mar 30. I have a Late 2008 Aluminum Macbook with 4GB RAM running OS X 10.5.8. Oct 1, 2018 - The latest version of macOS is macOS 10.14 Mojave, which Apple released on. They appear as updates in the Software Update pane.
Periodically, Apple releases updates to your macOS software (which can include updates to apps that come with your Mac and important security updates).
If you receive a notification that software updates are available, you can choose when to install the updates, or choose to be reminded the next day. You can also check for macOS updates manually in the Software Update pane of System Preferences.
