Q: Can't Download El Capitan but Meet All Requirements?

1) Trying to download El Capitan and it says "Cannot be downloaded to this computer"

2) I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro running 10.7.5 with a 2.3GHZ Core i5, 16GB of RAM and 170GB of free hard drive space.

3 I click the "Get" button on the El Capitan download page in the App Store and it says "Cannot Complete your Purchase. This version of OSX 10.11 cannot be installed on this computer"

4) Clicking the "Learn More" does nothing, clicking "OK" closes the dialogue box.

5) I'm a musician and Sierra is not stable for a lot of programs...yet...and I'm not THAT adventurous.

 

Any help would be most appreciated!

MacBook Pro, iOS 10, 16GB RAM, 2.3GHz Core i5
