The other thing to keep in mind 10.11.6 is the newest version of El Capitan. The next version is an Upgrade, not an update.

That goes through the App Store. If your Mac supports it, you can follow these steps to go to Sierra:

No idea.

Probably not for an older system.

Thank you, unfortunately I have the iMac 21.5 inch Late 2013 and I cannot upgrade memory in this module to accommodate Sierra or Mojave. I read they both take 8GB to run and that's all I have. I guess my iMac is now obsolete.

If I were to chance it, may I ask what you would recommend with 8GB of memory ? I have macOS Sierra and macOS Mojave in my Launchpad. I'm not tech savvy at all.

I just read that macOS Sierra and macOS Mojave will no longer be supported as of this year. No sense in updating them. Time for a new Computer. Thanks for your links.

A late 2013 iMac can run Catalina. At least that will keep you current for at least another year, and get a chance to test 64 bit applications on their own external drive or partition.
