i can not download a app because it says my mac needs to updates to 10.14 but it is already.

I am currently on my Macbook and wan to download the "Notion Web Clipper" app and it tells

"Notion Web Clipper can’t be installed on “Macintosh HD” because macOS version 10.14 or later is required. " I then go to my apple icon then to system preferences to try to update my mac but it tells me it is updated and there is no where to see the typical update screen.

MacBook, macOS 10.12

The Age of this computer will Govern what newer version of macOS it will Qualify to install. Use About this Mac from the Apple Icon on Desktop - the required Information will be there.


With the above information in-hand - follow this How to get old versions of macOS and verify what version this computer Qualifies to install.  For Best results use Safari to commence the download as Others may not work.


Safari will open a redirect and open the Apple Store where the download can commence


macOS Mojave - Technical Specifications


Make Time Machine Backup  is very useful and can be used to Revert to Previous Working macOS


Are there any AntiVirus, Disk Cleaner, Optimizers, Un-installers, etc installed which should be removed as per Developers Instructions. They are useless, unneeded, cause havoc and interfere with the normal  operation of the OS and may even Corrupt the OS requiring a Reinstallation

Back up your data, check your applications for compatibility, and depending on which MacBook model you have, click on High Sierra, Mojave, Catalina, Big Sur, or Monterey. It needs to be at least a 2012 one to run Mojave and that application.


Catalina and newer won't run 32-bit software; download and use Go64 to scan for it. To check other programs, click here and look them up.
