My 2011 vintage iMAC is running OS 10.12.6. I'm trying to upgrade to High Sierra 10.13.6. I have downloaded High Sierra 10.13.6 from the Ap Store. When I attempt to install, it tells me that I need 10.13. I cannot find 10.13. Where do I get High Sierra 10.13?

You have downloaded an update installer, not an upgrade installer. How to upgrade to macOS High Sierra.
Before You Upgrade macOS
Like I said, I gave up. Sticking with Sierra.
Dang that is clever
It's working OK for you now? Which method did you try?
Whoot, great work, thanks for the report! :)
As KenMac2010 says, don't use Firefox.

Mr. Macjack, your link take us to the same issue, takes us to 10.13.6 update not upgrade to 10.3 (unfortunately)
On the off chance you did not notice, there is no post in this topic from Macjack. If you are addressing him directly, then I suppose I should let you know that he has passed away.
10.13 High Sierra. I tried to install the 10.13.6 but it says that it needs the 10.13 to be installed. Too bad Apple did this. Hope to get someone there who has it and could be able to share somehow.
I also have a similar problem upgrading to High Sierra but cannot find the App in Apple Store (or anywhere else). It appears Sierra v 10.12.6 is 3 generations behind the latest Apple OS and wonder if Apple is not even making it available? I am resigned to the fact that I shall be using Sierra until the machine crashes or if I trade in for another new desktop Mac with the latest OS.
I tried it. Nothing different from what I have done previously. Clicked on the icon and clicked on the Download box. Saw a spinning gear icon and then nothing else. No confirmation about downloading in progress. Maybe 4+ GB file takes several hours? But why no progress report of downloading? Frustrating.
Having the same issue and Mac's support team has given me the same answer twice. I clicked on the link that the support team has sent and a web-page for High Sierra appears. There are only a few thing that respond to a click, the word MORE which opens up info regarding the OS spec's and also info links on the right side end to more and more info.
No downloadable Operating system link anywhere. I should have found something somewhere but nothing worked.
I will be calling Mac's support in the morning. I believe that talking it over will save time and fill in all the little details. I'll post the outcome and all of the details.
Mac OS High Sierra is available use this link:
You are the man!!!
