How do I update to a specific version? Stability over novelty required
Hi,
I recently bought an iMac (2020), and I have a MacPro (Late 2013) I want to migrate from.
The directions from Apple tell me to update to latest version. However, I am an audio engineer, and my primary software is authorized only for use a few versions back. My need to avoid bugs through ongoing work is much more important than getting "the latest jiffy spiffy" from Apple, whatever that is.
I want to get my iMac running right before retiring my MacPro, which totally requires me running 11.4 until my audio software provider authorizes a later version of MacOS. Waiting for that to happen seems far less feasible than updating my MacOS on the iMac to 11.4 to run the Migration Assistant with the same version on both machines, and worrying about my OS update on my schedule.
Is there a way to do this? Can Apple tech support help by "sending" 11.4 to my iMac even if there isn't a way for me to press buttons to do so?
Thanks for any answers.
Mac Pro, macOS 11.4
