I'm not too computer tech-savvy..........
My automatic browser updates don't automatically update anymore.
Could someone please assist me or others on how to upgrade my browser to the latest one please?
If possible step by step guide?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou in advance. :)

What exactly are you trying to do? What OS are you running? What browser are you using? Safari? What are you trying to upgrade to?

Click the apple at the top left of your screen. Click App Store. It should say without even clicking it if there is an update and how many.

I'm currently running OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.5.
I clicked on the apple like you said and it is showing Mac OS Catalina.

Catalina is the new OS. You can get it in the App Store. If your machine can run it.


Click on safari. The first line in the drop down is "About Safari". Click it. You should be on Safari 14. If not, click on the apple again and go to About This Mac, then to software updates.

My 2011 MBP no longer notifies me of updates because it can't run anything newer than Sierra 10.12.16.
