"OS updates/upgrade: My macbook pro (mid 2014) is running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5. No updates are available which I assume is because it's an old OS. What OS can i upgrade to on this Macbook?"

Updating the macOS:

Determining which Update(s) will Install:

I. Verify Compatibility:

B. How to Verify:

I Reveal your Model:

1. Go to: Apple menu
2. Click: About this Mac
3. View: Second Line-Down

then...

II. Compare the Results:

III. If Compatible:

Back Up your Mac First:  Be certain you Create a Time Machine Backup of your Mac, so that way you can have something to restore your Mac from, should anything go wrong with the reconfiguration.

Back up your data, check the application compatibility table, click here, and then on the download link for a more-recent OS. Its maximum one is Big Sur.

Catalina and above won't run 32-bit software; if you choose one of them, use Go64 as well.
