Well - this KB article makes it sound like there is a strong possibility that OS X 10.6.8 is not fully 64-bit: Quote For Mac users, if you have OS X 10.8 or later, you are using a 64bit operating system. Most users running 10.7 are also 64bit as well but this can be confirmed here. The following KB article lists the oldest OS X compatible with 2016 as OS X 10.9, so I would say chances are good you would not be able to successfully install 2016 on your old MacBook Pro unless you first upgrade your OS X.

zoomer Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 BTW, I found that my old Mac Pro with (beautiful) 10.7.5, can only run VW 2015 as newest VW version. I think VW 2016 needs at least a 10.8. as far as I remember. But it is worth a try Quote Link to comment
