When you open Software Update, do you navigate past the "your mac is up to date" dialog to see if there is anything else? According to information from Apple, your Mac is in fact too old to take Monterey.

I have been getting notifications to update to Monterey. But, when I check for updates either in preferences or About This Mac it always tells me I am up to date. This morning in fact there was a notification on the computer to update to Monterey when I tried clicking on the notification it seemed to just disappear. I looked in the app store and it said there as well that everything was up to date.

This is so weird. I have not had issues getting or installing updates before.

    What are you being offered to update to? You should be able to select the search feield in the Mac App Store and locate it there. Perhaps email me privately and I can get more details.

    Hi John,

    I had tried this several months back and nothing came up there
    either. Yet I still get notifications to update.

        You can also search the App Store for any later MacOS update and
    download it from the store if it’s not showing up in the software
    update preferences.

        Have you tried going into system preferences, and then software
        update? It might flag it there.

            Hello All,

            I have a Mac Book Pro that I bought in 2014. When I look in
            the “About This Mac” area it tells me it’s a “Late 2013”
            model. I am currently running Big Sir 15.7 on it.

            For months it has been notifying me that there is an update
            to Monterey which I don’t find when I check in preferences
            or the updates when I check under the about this Mac.
            When/if I get a notification about it I cannot get to that
            either.

            Other than the computer being too old for the newer OS, does
            any one know of any other reason why I am unable to get the
            download?

            Thanks for any pointers.

            Eileen
