Hi there!


You can upgrade to macOS Monterey 12. Download macOS here: How to download macOS - Apple Support.


Before installing, it’s a good idea to back up your Mac. While installing, avoid putting your Mac to sleep or closing its lid. Your Mac will restart, and it might show a progress bar or blank screen several times.
