The model and year of your Mac will determine which macOS you can upgrade to,

read the links below.

If your mac can upgrade to macOS Sierra it can upgrade to macOS High Sierra,

High Sierra is still receiving Security Upgrades and will do until next Fall.

Before upgrading make a full back up of your Mac.


Check that third party apps you use have updates available for the new OS.
