I'm confused. What's the difference between downloading from the App Store or the Knowledge Base?
Eg.

Thanks!
Thanks for your gracious and quick reply! Alas, the App Store doesn't seem to allow upgrades to Yosemite. There's a good chance I'm not looking hard enough, but the updates tab on the computer says no updates are available. :(
PS to the above whine: Using the link you provided (instead of the App Store) I was taken to the OS X El Capitan link and am currently downloading this version. Thank you so much for your on-target help, patience and quick reply.

Assuming you have MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2008), you can upgrade to a maximum of OS X 10.11.6.
Open Safari and visit here to do this.
The second link is newer and avoids a certificate issue.
