imovie in Macbook air

I am trying to download the imovie app from the appstore. However, my

computer is saying "iMovie can’t be installed on “Macintosh HD” because

OS X version 10.12.2 or later is required." I do not have any updates to

download however.

MacBook Air 11", macOS 10.13

Try this procedure to download iMovie:


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.
