Mavericks, for instance, fell to 14% of all editions of OS X, a two-point slide that was double its earlier average.Īpproximately 90% of all Macs were eligible to upgrade to El Capitan when the operating system launched on Sept. Each of those tracked by Computerworld - from 2007's Leopard on - fell at rates larger than their average decline over the previous 12 months. Last month, Yosemite shed more than a third of its user share as its users upgraded.īut other, even older versions of OS X also lost user share last month.
Not surprisingly, the majority of those who migrated to El Capitan came from its immediate predecessor, Yosemite. Those forerunners launched in the second half of October in 20, respectively, and so spread their biggest gains over a longer stretch than El Capitan: 41 days for Mavericks and 47 days for Yosemite. When the release dates of each edition were taken into account, however, El Capitan's average daily adoption rate only edged Yosemite's and turned out to be lower than Mavericks'. In the absence of definitive data from Apple, user share is one of the few proxies for real-world OS X adoption. Net Applications estimates operating system shares by tallying unique visitors to its clients' websites.
