MacOS Sierra

NickNack — Sat, 08 Oct 2016 18:17:12 GMT

I still haven't downloaded OS X El Capitan 10.11.6. Can I update to MacOS Sierra without downloading this, or do I need to download the 10.11.6 El Capitan first? I'm sure this is a stupid question, but I tried Googling it and couldn't find the answer.

I think I can probably just download Sierra but wanted to make sure.

If you couldn't, you wouldn't have the option.

Thank you @GATORGIRL. I had read the system requirements, and my computer is in that timetable. I just wasn't sure if it needed to be up to date with all the upgrades for El Capitan first. I doubt it, but wasn't sure.

@NickNack

You also need to make sure all of your 3rd party software is ready for Sierra. You can check on this website-->https://roaringapps.com/apps?platform=osx

I haven't upgraded either. I am waiting for the 2nd or 3rd version. I am still on Yosemite on my iMac & Snow Leopard on my MBP. I have no intention of upgrading my MBP.

I updated both of my computers and so far, so good.
