Yeh, had that link also. Tries to install Mojave. They really are hiding the install files

I googled "High Sierra Installer" and the first result got me the installer.
Worked on our 5,1 that had Mavericks on it.

Hi all,

Apple won't show you the old OS installers in your App Store account unless you previously downloaded them when they made available again for a short time.

Luckily...I have all MacOS installers going back to Mountain Lion (also had snow leopard but lost the CD)

Let me know if you want me to send any one you want!

I would suggest to the OP that Mojave is the best OS (at least for my system). Have been running 10.14.3 flawlessly here with PT 2019.6.

And of course you’ll need a metal compatible graphics card. Plenty of threads on here about that.
