Why on earth wouldn't you be able to open one? Both the computer and Photoshop are perfectly able to do so.

ACR  has no problems and DNGs can be opened on my mid-2010 Macpro, 1013 Macbook Pro, 2011 Macbook Air, etc. In fact, at least since Snow Leopard.

I need DNG file because i have never updated my macbook early 2015 and my camera raw is very old version and i don't know is it support that camera. 

That is why i need DNG file.

As a side note, the latest version of Apples IOS 13 fully supports .DNG files in the Apple Photos app.  (In the previous version of IOS .DNG photos were pixelated until edited in the app) 

I use a 2015 MB Pro and have zero issues with .DNG in Lightroom.

Why don't you simply update ACR and your OS? Life will be much easier, and not just for photo editing.

Couple of links to M240 DNG files below. I did not record their source(s) so i don't know if they are protected by copyright. No problem to open them with Macs since 2013 anyway.

I open DNGs on Mac (Lightroom and Photoshop) since 2008 with absolutely no problem. I'm sure you will have none, no matter which DNG are you trying to open.

Hello,

I only have a M 240, so I can't offer a file of a M-E. But I also run an old system (for a lot of reasons) and here it worked. But could be that the DNG file of the M-E is different.
I was interested in the X-U and made a test at the Photokina and had to realize that my C1 refused to open the files. Before I always thought the DNG is DNG so that every software will work with it since Adobe has established it as a standard. But looks like they also included a kind for version-management into it, maybe to force you upgrade your software. So it's wise to proof before if you can go on with your preferred workflow with the new camera.
Since it is so new it might be hard to find one with an M-E here, but maybe you can test one at your dealer or at a Leica store.

Yes, but there are DNG variants, like the M8 used a LUT, and the Monochrom1 a linear DNG, the latter resulting in compatibility problems with Mac OS. Which have been solved since. The problem is that not all developers implement the full DNG standard, or update to the latest version, leaving out rarely used aspects. 

read here about the versions of DNG:

Note: not https, you may have to allow the site in your browser.

But, as said, M240 DNGs date back to 2012 and should not give the slightest problem.
