I got an updated Mac and needed to update the anki app that is more compatible . When I was trying to sync it says that I am an outdated client, I saw to fix this you need to update anki so I did and it is still saying that. Not sure how to fix this, could not find any more info.

Are you maybe using a copycat? Please see [Anki knockoffs - Anki FAQs](https://faqs.ankiweb.net/anki-knockoffs.html)

Either way, you can get the latest Anki from here: [Anki - powerful, intelligent flashcards](https://apps.ankiweb.net/#download)

That is the same place I used to update so it was not a copycat 😕

Are you using the AnkiHub add-on? That seems to be causing this for some users lately. Updating the add-on is usually the fix for this.

Otherwise, your next step should be the [Troubleshooting Checklist](https://docs.ankiweb.net/troubleshooting.html).
