Will Safari V14 work with High Sierra

I am at High Sierra V10.13.6 on my Mac. Also at Safari V 13.1.2.

A banking web site requires now that Safari be at V14 or more.

Q. Do I just download Sierra V14(or latest v14) and I do not

download any updates to my High Sierra V10.13.6?


So the net after download of Safari V14 is it is now installed

and High Sierra V 10.13.6 remains installed.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13

Safari is updated is by upgrading your computer's software. An upgrade is when you install a newer OS version, such as upgrading from Catalina to Big Sur. An update is to install a newer version of the same operating system. The reason for this is because Safari is installed as part of the operating system. It cannot normally be individually installed. Incidentally, a newer version of Safari does not always work with every web site. Sometimes it is necessary to install another browser such as Firefox or one of the many browsers available from the Apple App Store to use with certain web sites. They are individually installed and upgraded.

 

So, the latest Safari version is installed when you upgrade the OS on your iMac. You can check the model year of your iMac under the Apple menu > About This Mac.
