Can't d/l High Sierra because it says its not available on the US store. Can I get it from a different store?

I have a mid 2011 iMac and I'm trying to update to the most current OS possible. I believe that to be High Sierra, but I can't access the installer on the app store. The link on the Apple support page opens iTunes then tells me that it is not available in the US store. What do I do?

iMac 27″, macOS 10.12

Don't use Firefox for this link...

If you get a corrupted message...

Naw, not damaged, it's just that you have an old copy already in Applications, there are 2 cures...


Disconnect from the Internet & set the Date back to 2014, then you can run the Install MacsOS High Sierra App in Applications, so expired Certificates are not expired.


Or... trash the Install MacsOS High Sierra.app in Applications then a new copy more recent version can be downloaded.
