- NVIDIA CUDA Installation Guide for Mac OS X DU-05348-001v11.0 2 1.2. About This Document This document is intended for readers familiar with the Mac OS X environment and the compilation of C programs from the command line. You do not need previous experience with CUDA or experience with parallel computation.
- Note: Quadro FX for Mac or GeForce for Mac must be installed prior to CUDA Driver 410.130 installation. Double-click on cudadriver410.130macos.dmg; Click Continue on the Installer Welcome screen; Click Continue after you read the License Agreement and then click Agree; Click Install on.
- CUDA driver update to support macOS 10.12 and NVIDIA display driver 367.15.10.15f01; Recommended CUDA version(s): CUDA 8.0; Supported MAC OS X. 10.12.x; 10.11.x; An alternative method to download the latest CUDA driver is within Mac OS environment. Access the latest driver through System Preferences Other CUDA. Click 'Install CUDA Update'.
Note:
If you are logged in as a Guest or Standard User, you cannot install the driver. Some organizations do not allow users to regulate what they install and manipulate system and application settings. Contact your system admin for help with installing the driver in such a situation.
| Versions | |
| Operating system | macOS 10.13.6 (most recent version of High Sierra) macOS 10.14 (Mojave) and later does not currently support CUDA so do not upgrade beyond macOS 10.13.6 if CUDA support is required. |
| Premiere Pro version | Premiere Pro version 13.1.x or earlier. Starting with Premiere Pro 14.0, CUDA is no longer supported. If you have an Apple supplied NVIDIA GPU, you can use the Metal Renderer. For more information, see Changes to GPU and DV/HDV support in Premiere Pro on macOS. |
| GPU | Current NVIDIA GPU with at least 4 GB of memory |
| Display driver | NVIDIA display driver version 387.10.10.10.40.105 or late |
- Create a backup of your boot volume. For more information, see Back up your Mac with Time Machine.
- Identify your NVIDIA GPU make and model before downloading the appropriate driver.
Close all running Adobe applications before proceeding.
You must update the NVIDIA display driver before updating CUDA. Check your macOS build number and download the corresponding driver, using the following table.
macOS build numbers Driver versions macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra (17G8030) 387.10.10.10.40.130 macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra (17G7024) 387.10.10.10.40.128 macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra (17G6030) 387.10.10.10.40.127 macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra (17G6029) 387.10.10.10.40.123 macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra (17G5019) 387.10.10.10.40.122 macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra (17G4015) 387.10.10.10.40.113 macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra (17G3025) 387.10.10.10.40.108 macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra (17G65) 387.10.10.10.40.105 Open the downloaded PKG file to begin installation.
Restart your machine when installation is complete, even if the setup does not prompt you to do so.
After the display driver is updated, use download the qualified CUDA installer DMG from this location.
Open the downloaded DMG and double click the CUDADriver.pkg file to begin installation.
When installation completes, restart your machine even if the setup does not prompt you to do so.
NVIDIA® CUDA Toolkit 11.0 no longer supports development or running applications on macOS. While there are no tools which use macOS as a target environment, NVIDIA is making macOS host versions of these tools that you can launch profiling and debugging sessions on supported target platforms.
You may download all these tools here. Note that the Nsight tools provide the ability to download these macOS host versions on their respective product pages.
Please visit each tool's overview page for more information about the tool and its supported target platforms.
The macOS host tools provided are:
- Nsight Systems - a system profiler and timeline trace tool supporting Pascal and newer GPUs
- Nsight Compute - a CUDA kernel profiler supporting Volta and new GPUs
- Visual Profiler - a CUDA kernel and system profiler and timeline trace tool supporting older GPUs (see installation instructions, below)
- cuda-gdb - a GPU and CPU CUDA application debugger (see installation instructions, below)

Instructions for installing cuda-gdb on the macOS
- This tar archive holds the distribution of the CUDA 11.0 cuda-gdb debugger front-end for macOS.
Native macOS debugging is not supported in this release, only remote debugging to other CUDA enabled targets.
- To install:
- Create an installation directory
- INSTALL_DIR=$HOME/cuda-gdb-darwin-11.0
mkdir $INSTALL_DIR
cd $INSTALL_DIR - Download the cuda-gdb-darwin-11.0.tar.gz tar archive into $INSTALL_DIR above
- Unpack the tar archive
- tar fxvz cuda-gdb-darwin-11.0.tar.gz
- Add the bin directory to your path
- PATH=$INSTALL_DIR/bin:$PATH
- Run cuda-gdb --version to confirm you're picking up the correct binaries
- cuda-gdb --version
You should see the following output:
- NVIDIA (R) CUDA Debugger
