Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hello, My Mac Book Pro High Sierra 10.13.6 does not allow me to download apps anymore because it says it needs the 10.14 system. I have searched all over for this system update; it does not show in my App updates. My computer says I'm up to date. Any advice?

Last Resort Only
The Age of this computer will Govern what newer version of macOS it will Qualify to install. Use About this Mac from the Apple Icon on Desktop - the required Information will be there.
With the above information in-hand - follow this How to get old versions of macOS and verify what version this computer Qualifies to install. Make sure to use Only Safari to commence the download as Others may not work
Make a Time Machine Backup Before attempting. Notation - Mojave is the Last version to support 32 bit applications / extensions and Drivers. Catalina and Big Sur Only support 64 bit and there is no workaround.
Are there any AntiVirus, Disk Cleaner, Optimizers, Defrag, VPNs etc installed which should be removed as per Developers Instructions. They are useless, unneeded, cause havoc and interfere with the normal operation of the OS and may even Corrupt the OS requiring a Reinstallation.
If your MBP is from 2012 or later, open in Safari…
