Mac OS X El Capitan not upgrading to Sierra 10.12 Hi, I have an iMac (21.5 inch Late 2013) that runs Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6. I am trying to upgrade to OS Sierra 10.12 from the Apple download page for older versions link. I have gone through link download and installation process twice and I am told the upgrade is complete. However, when I go to "About This Mac" it still says I am running El Capitan 10.11.6, even after restarting my computer. I have 152 G of free space on my computer so I don't think that is the problem. Is my computer no longer compatible for upgrades?

What is the model (e.g., iMac, MacBook Air, etc) and model year that you are trying to upgrade? Both of those are available at Apple menu > About this Mac.
