Mojave Terms and Conditions Page Won't Let Me Agree

I recently updated my 2019 27-inch iMac to macOS Sequoia, not realizing that the antiquated hardware wouldn’t be able to handle the latest operating system. To make the device useable again, I booted into macOS Recovery mode to revert to Mojave. This worked flawlessly until I began setting up Mojave and reached the Terms and Conditions page. The “Agree” button is grayed out, and no matter how many times I scroll to the bottom of the text, the page won’t allow me to agree to the terms. I can’t proceed with the OS activation without it. Can you suggest a solution?

Click the Back button until you get to the AppleID/iCloud sign-in page & do not sign in. This has been a known issue for many years now. After that you should be able to agree with the Terms & Conditions.

The reasons you would have problems....

8GB or less of memory
Worn out or failing Hard Drive or Fusion Drive
Issue with third party installed software

Otherwise Sequoia will run just as well as on any other Mac. My money is on the latter two reasons.
