My MacBook Pro won't update to Catalina

I am currently running Mojave 10.14.6 and I seem to have enough room on my hard drive, but when I try to download Catalina, it tells me my software is up to date. Why can't I upgrade?


MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.14

common issue—


Catalina not available for download

running Mojave 10.14.6.—trying to download Catalina, it is not showing up as a system update

From the Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app copy and paste:



sudo softwareupdate --reset-ignored



(please note your psswd will not echo on screen—type it in anyway to proceed)

relaunch System Preferences>Software update
