MacBook Pro mid 2012 running Catalina 10.15.7
I need Pages and Numbers compatible with this OS
OR
I need to update to Big Sur or Monterey
App Store displays "the requested version is not available"
How do I get around this issue without replacing the MacBook Pro?
MacBook Pro
At this point, you cannot update past Catalina in a device which is now a decade old.
See this link to see the highest MacOS all MacBook Pro models are able to run --> https://everymac.com/systems/by_capability/maximum-macos-supported.html
App Store > View My Account ... and log in if not logged in.
Pages and other similar Apps should be shown there.
If they say [Open} you already have them in your /Applications folder, they are not on the Dock yet.
If they say [Download] click that and re-download the older version.
Unable to update Macbook Pro (mid 2012) and unable to load older Apps
