Any Mac bought new in 2014 can run a higher macOS verrsion than 10.10. However, instead of telling us a purchase date, please tell us the SUB-MODEL That determines your system upgrade path, not when you bought, and is quickly available by doing "About this Mac..."



In the example, "13-inch, Mid 2012" it that computer's sub-model. Please tell us your sub-model.
