So, can I update from macOS Big Sur 11.7.10 to any higher level?
My MacBook Pro is 2015.

I tried these options but none of them works.
Sonoma 14
Ventura 13
Monterey 12
Big Sur 11


If your MacBook Pro is a 13" Early 2015 or 15" Mid 2015 model, you can update it to macOS Monterey – but no higher.


Neil already provided a link to the Support document that you need to get Monterey, but here's the link again:

Be sure to use Safari and to have Safari set as your default Web browser. If you use another Web browser, you may get an incorrect and very misleading message about the item you requested not being available in the App Store. That happened to me when I used Firefox to try to download the High Sierra installer.
