Updating an older iMac?
Can I update a Late 2009 model iMac to Big Sur? Or is there any update available for a Late 2009 that is newer than 10.12.6?

Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and click on High Sierra. That Mac model can't be upgraded past it.

Hi JamieMcLachlin,
You cannot upgrade to macOS Big Sur, but you can to macOS High Sierra. Use this link, How to get old versions of macOS - Apple Support, and choose High Sierra. Backup before upgrading!
Cheers,
Jack
High Sierra is the latest you can run.
