Apple, being famously secretive, does not publish any end-of-life schedules, and as we are not Apple employees or contractors, we don't have that knowledge either.

Once Apple releases a new major operating system version via the App Store, there will be no further point release upgrades to the prior operating system release. Apple will release security updates for the prior two operating system releases, and this may include Safari browser updates — so effectively a three version sliding window. They frequently make the last release of the prior operating system in that window — as the criterion for receiving these updates, so staying current is important.

When you use your Mac notebook, its battery goes through charge cycles. A charge cycle happens when you use all of the battery’s power—but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge.

For example, you could use half of your notebook's charge in one day, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two. In this way, it might take several days to complete a cycle.

Batteries have a limited amount of charge cycles before their performance is expected to diminish. Once the cycle count is reached, a replacement battery is recommended to maintain performance. You can use your battery after it reaches its maximum cycle count, but you might notice a reduction in your battery life.

Knowing how many charge cycles your battery has and how many are left can help you determine when a battery replacement is required. Your battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original charge capacity at its maximum cycle count. For best performance, replace your battery when you reach its maximum cycle count.
