Need To Update OS 10.9.5 to 10.10 in order to further update

I have a macbook pro 7.1 (mid 2010) 4gb memory with an old 10.9.5 operating system

I can't update to anything until I update to 10.10, is there somewhere to get the 10.10 os?


What are my options?

You should be able to update without installing 10.10. You should be able to update to High Sierra.

Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

Also check to make sure there is a compatible driver for your printer.


Do a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different drives.
