Would you please make it easier to download and install a new system? None of your directions work. Why do you make this so difficult? I've been trying for days to get this figured out.
Mac mini, macOS 10.13
I see that you're trying and install Big Sur, is that correct? If your Mac is compatible with Big Sur, you can try and go to either the App Store (pre macOS Catalina) or to system preferences>software update to see if an update is available.
It could be that your Mac is not compatible with updating, please specify your Mac. model to get that cleared out
Thanks Wheeliy, Your suggestion makes perfect sense, and that's exactly what I've been doing. It's frustrating.
