[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1802869, member: 204485"] You are trying to download an installer which expects that you will have the preceding macOS already ie. High Sierra. My suggestion would be to download and install High Sierra OS 10.13 and update everything first. This is always a good idea in any case. This will also convert your OS filing system to APFS which will be compatible with Mojave. You may well find that the Apple way (using Terminal) will then work. In the past before the introduction of the new filing system upgrading to an OS 2-3 versions above the one you had was no big deal although ideally sequential updating is usually best due to software versions. You will also need the latest version of DismakerX if you choose to go that way. Lastly check that your devices are compatible with Mojave first (and High Sierra). A simple Google search for compatibility will tell you that. [/QUOTE]
