I am currently on MacOs Catalina - version 10.15.7 and would like to update to MacOs 12. When I click on the Apple in the left hand corner of the screen, followed by About this Mac, and then click on Software Update, I get the following message:
"Your system administrator has not given you access to this preferences pane."
Am I able to update to a later MacOS version?
Thanks!
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15
