MacOs Monterrey

Hello everyone,

I want to install the MacOs Monterrey on my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013), but I tried different ways and they do not allowed me, also I tried to follow other forums but the solutions didn't work, my current version is 10.15.7 Catalina.

But on the specs apparently I could upload this version, because is compatible, but not a chance to do it.

As you can see attached they said is not available, but is rare, because some ppl. on the forums has installed.

If any of you can tell how, I'll really appreciated it.

Thanks,

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

Apple does not list 2013 systems (other than Mac Pro, which is not the same as MacBook Pro) on its System Requirements page. Please see this link:

Thanks a lot Halliday, seems that for 8 months, I'm not allowed to use also the Big Sur, which is a pitty when you have many devices to connect and play...

To all you thanks for quick support on this..., hope Apple can liberate this to my MacBook Pro soon.

Thanks for your quick replay.

But what about macOS Big Sur, this MacBook Pro is listed to have it, but when I tried to find the installation through the App Store is not showing/appear and I have plenty of space on it.

Do you have any link that I could use to do it properly then, since Apple do not support Monterrey on my MacBook Pro model?, so I can use Big Sur?

Thanks again.
