Can you upgrade the OS? I am finding that mine is increasingly useless for anything other than basic web surfing because the OS can’t be updated.

We have 2010 Macs capable of being upgraded to macOS Sierra in my office. I couldn't tell you about the 2009 Macs as we upgraded anything that old some time ago. However, at the moment we are running OS X El Capitan due to the main software we use to run the patient data base has not been certified yet to be reliable on macOS Sierra by its publisher as well as the 3D radiography software has yet to be upgraded. So we wait.

Those 2010 Macs are scheduled to be replaced next year, though. They've done their duty for six years.

Hell no you can’t upgrade!

You scumbags who hang on to your computers don’t deserve any support. /s

I think Snow Leopard is as high as it will go.
I have to come up with work around sometimes.

The most frustrating is not being able to sync my new iPhone.

An upgrade is in the near future, though.
