Hi,

Ollama for Macbook now support OS 12.0+; the latest OS supported by my laptop is OS 11.7.
I was able to run Ollama using the versions ollama version 0.3.12.
It successfully uses llama 3.2.

I want to try different models, but seems that pull is only supported by the latest ollama for macbook, not the one I have installed:

pulling manifest 
Error: pull model manifest: 412: 

The model you are attempting to pull requires a newer version of Ollama.

Please download the latest version at:

	https://ollama.com/download

Can I download a model locally, and run it with ollama run [NAME of model] ?
Can you explain how to do it, to ensure dependencies?

Hu!

I figured that restarting ollama upgraded it to version 0.9.3 and correctly downloading new models.

Glad to hear it is working but in general the issue with needing newer versions of Ollama to run more recent models is not pulling but running them. As a result, there is no workaround other than upgrading.
