Hi all, I have a MacBook pro, early 2015, that won't find the newer software updates. It's currently running 10.13.6, High Sierra, and from what I've seen it should be capable of running the newer versions, but it doesn't show them at all in the app store. Anyone have a fix/explanation?

Big Sur states that you will need 35.5 GB of free storage when upgrading from High Sierra or newer, and 44.5 GB when upgrading from an older versions.
verify you are using the Safari browser to download/initiate the macOS links.

Some Users are finding that Big Sur has rather a lot of incompatibilities with older software. Some regret moving to it too quickly, and going back to an older version can be onerous.
You may want to use leroydouglas "Older MacOS versions" link to download and install Catalina now, and look carefully at whether your software is fully compatible with Big Sur before proceeding.
From what I've been able to check, it fits the requirements.
If it were up to me I would've stayed on Sierra, had no reason to change up till now. However I need 1.14 for an important project I'm working on so it is what it is. I will look into it more before downloading just to be safe. Thanks!
