Q: Macbook Pro OS X Version Questions

I just bought a Macbook pro from a friend to use as a backup and alternate computer for both personal and work. As i have been working on upgrading things I have ran into a couple of apps that are not longer compatible with the version of OS X I am currently using.

 

My question is what is the latest OS X version that i can have on this computer seeing it as an older computer. While reading online it seems that it is compatible with Yosemite but upon installing it, I am told it isn't compatible. With the specs i have below, what version is the latest that i can update to and if I am at my max is there a way that I can get older compatible versions of apps from the store, or elsewhere for that matter?

 

My system specs are:

Macbook Pro 13-Inch Mid 2007 version

2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

3 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

Intel GMA 950 64 MB Graphics

Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)

Fully up to date according to system update tool

 

Please point me in the right direction as to information regarding if i can go any higher in OS X as well as finding compatible app store software if I am unable to upgrade any further.

 

Thanks for reading and your time

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

It's at its maximum OS. Contact the application developers, or download the current versions to a newer Mac, click here, and try following the instructions.

    Thank you for the information and link I will keep it bookmarked to help with future apps also. Sad to hear its maxed out on os upgrades, ive seen some nice features in the new ones. I will have to invest in a newer model, i just didnt want to do so for a backup computer but i will when it comes time to upgrade my primary.

     

    Thanks again for the information
