Q: MacBook (Mid 2009) - OS SIERRA
I read where if you MacBook was built in late 2009 you can download OS Sierra.
My MacBook want be to update to OS Sierra but when i click on OS Sierra to download I get an error stating I can't download.
To be honest I don't think OS Sierra should show up on my old computer which made me think i can update my OS .
Why does apple put it on computers that should not receive it?
