“iMovie” I use a late 2011 macbook with High Sierra OS. I attempted to download iMovie from the app store. I get a bubble message “Download a later version of iMove” and it provides a button to download. When I select the download, it cycles the sa

How do I get the version of iMovie compatible High Sierra 10.13.6? I've tried the App store, it says I can get an older version, gives me the icon to click on, then gives me the same message again to click on the download icon... nothing downloads, just recycles the message over and over... ??

Hi, Cuffarodavid,


To update/redownload iMovie 10, drag your iMovie 10 app from the Applications folder into the trash, but do not empty the

trash. (You can skip that step if you had iMovie 10 on your computer before, but deleted it.) Sign in to the app store and open your purchases folder by clicking on your name at the bottom of the app store side bar. You will see your purchases displayed, including iMovie 10. Redownload/update iMovie from there. If not successful, drag your present iMovie app out of the trash (if you moved it there) and return it to the Applications folder.
