when you get that message, it usually means that you are already running the most recent macOS that the Mac Is compatible with.


which model and year Mac are we discussing here? with that info we can determine wether or not you can run Ventura.

I have a MacBook Pro mid 2015 for which I made my annual TurboTax purchase. I was unaware that my Mac was not able to upgrade beyond macOS Monterey 12.7.6 and the download requires macOS 13.0 or higher. So I signed in as the email instructions said and the info is now in my downloads on the computer that won't download for use. The license code on the email is of no use because it has already been associated with an account. So guess I'm in software **** with no access to find out how to get my money back and can't complete the return due on April 15th. Any help would be appreciated.
