I tried putting Google ‘Chrome’ on the Macbook as I noticed using Safari I would get messages about ‘the time and date is wrong’ message (which they weren’t) and hence unable to contact server. I can’t create a new apple id and when I click on ‘Update software’, I get the ‘Unable to connect to the App Store’ message.

The problem I have is that at the moment I can’t get the MacBook to talk to the App Store to download any new OS. I’ve also got a Presonus IoStation 24C audio interface that I’d like to run if it will. I also need to get hold of a copy of Final Cut Pro to run on whatever OS I decide on.

STANDARD MEMORY: 8GB (Onboard Memory)/ 512GB Flash Storage. I also want to run Steinberg’s Dorico (my version is currently at 3.5 but I don’t know if these OS will run it yet).
