* **Relationship to Docker Machine**: Installing Docker for Mac does not affect machines you created with Docker Machine. You'll get the option to copy containers and images from your local `default` machine (if one exists) to the new Docker for Mac <a href="https://github.com/docker/HyperKit/" target="_blank">HyperKit</a> VM. When you are running Docker for Mac, you do not need Docker Machine nodes running at all locally (or anywhere else). With Docker for Mac, you have a new, native virtualization system running (HyperKit) which takes the place of the VirtualBox system. To learn more, see [Docker for Mac vs. Docker Toolbox](docker-toolbox.md).

* **System Requirements**: Docker for Mac will launch only if all these requirements are met.
* **System Requirements**: Docker for Mac will launch only if all of these requirements are met.
- Mac must be a 2010 or newer model, with Intel's hardware support for memory management unit (MMU) virtualization; i.e., Extended Page Tables (EPT)
- macOS 10.10.3 Yosemite or newer
- OS X El Capitan 10.11 and newer macOS releases are supported. At a minimum, Docker for Mac requires macOS Yosemite 10.10.3 or newer, with the caveat that going forward 10.10.x is a use-at-your-own risk proposition.
- At least 4GB of RAM
- Starting with Docker for Mac stable release 1.13 (upcoming), and concurrent Beta releases, we will no longer address issues specific to OS X Yosemite 10.10. In future releases, Docker for Mac could stop working on OS X Yosemite 10.10 due to the deprecated status of this OS X version. We recommend upgrading to the latest version of macOS.
- VirtualBox prior to version 4.3.30 must NOT be installed (it is incompatible with Docker for Mac)
- At least 4GB of RAM
- VirtualBox prior to version 4.3.30 must NOT be installed (it is incompatible with Docker for Mac)
>**Note**: If your system does not satisfy these requirements, you can install [Docker Toolbox](/toolbox/overview.md), which uses Oracle Virtual Box instead of HyperKit.
