Docker Desktop + macOS 12 (Monterey): Fully Supported

Docker Desktop + macOS 12 (Monterey)

Docker Desktop requires macOS 11 (Big Sur) or later. On Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3), Docker Desktop supports native arm64 images. x86_64 (amd64) images run via Rosetta 2 emulation. Enable Rosetta in Docker Desktop settings for compatibility with amd64-only images.

Workarounds & Fixes

For amd64 images on Apple Silicon: enable "Use Rosetta for x86/amd64 emulation" in Docker Desktop settings
Pull arm64 image variants when available: `docker pull --platform linux/arm64 `
