The release notes accompanying the download are as follows: The OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 update improves the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac, and is recommended for all users. This update:. Improves compatibility with certain email servers when using Mail.
El Capitan, Sierra and High Sierra are all available for download and are free.
It sounds like you have been trying to install updates to El Capitan downloaded from the Apple Support Downloads pages. If so you need to have already installed El Capitan, that is why you are getting the message about 10.11.
for example if you downloaded the 10.11.6 Combo update this will update any previous version of El Capitan from 10.11.0 to 10.11.5 to the last version 10.11.6. Please remember full versions of OS's are only available via the Mac App Store.
Depending on the age of your Mac you may not be able to upgrade to Sierra or High Sierra, if so you should be able to upgrade to El Capitan.
Have a look at the links below to determine what OS you would like to download. Bear in mind though that if your Mac qualifies for High Sierra then you will be denied the download of El Capitan.
The versions that will be downloaded in each case will be the latest versions of each OS, so for El Capitan it will be 10.11.6, Sierra will be 10.12.6 and High Sierra will be 10.13.3.
If you tried Erics link to El Capitan and you couldn't download it, then the App Store is recognising that you Mac qualifies for High Sierra, so you can upgrade to that or if you want you could also upgrade to Sierra from the link above.
