The model and year of your Mac will determine which macOS you can upgrade to,

to check which mac model and year you have click on the  top left of your screen

then click on About This Mac.

Read Section 1 to see if your mac qualifies for the selected OS.


How to upgrade to macOS Mojave - Apple Support

Go to Section 4 and click on Get macOS Mojave this will redirect you to the

App Store Mojave download page, this will allow you to download the full installer

app (6.05GBs) to your Applications folder. This will install Mojave to version 10.14.6 which

is the last available version and all you need, you do not need 10.14 or 10.14.1 etc etc.


Before upgrading make a full back up of your Mac.


Check that third party apps you use have updates available for the new OS.

Check that your printers/ scanners etc have updated drivers and software available for the new OS.


Connect your mac to your router via cable rather than rely on WiFi.

Do not use your mac while it is downloading

and do not use any other devices that share the same internet connection.


If the App Store says ‘Open’ then it is detecting a previous download of the install app

go to the Applications folder locate Install macOS Mojave.app.

Move it to the Trash, empty the Trash.

Restart, click on the link again, the App Store should say ‘Get' or 'Download'.


If you are considering upgrading to Catalina be warned that it does not support 32bit apps.

Your Mac is probably running 32bit apps and these will need to be updated to 64bit apps,

some updates may be free, some may be paid. Use this app to discover which apps you have

are 32bit, https://www.stclairsoft.com/Go64/. Once the list has been created you can then

contact the developers of the apps to see if they provide 64bit updates.
