Q: Migration process now broken
Hi,
I'm migrating a server running 10.8.5 to a new Mac running 10.11.6. On Monday this was fine - I took a Time Machine backup, migrated it to the new Mac, downloaded Server, ran it, and everything worked just like that.
Now on Thursday, since Server got updated to 5.2, after migrating and downloading Server and running it, it refuses to update saying I need to run an older version of Server or OS X to do the migration. I have no way of getting the version that was downloadable on Monday though, not that I can see.
Any advice?
Mac mini, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

Solved by Apple support - get a Mac running 10.11 earlier than 10.11.6, and the App store will download an older version of Server. That can be copied across, and the migration done with that version.
Phew.
