imovie for OS10.14.6

Does anyone have a link for downloading iMovie that is compatible with OS 1.14.6 Mojave

My version (think it maybe 8 no longer wants to run and needs a re-install or upgrade.

Mac Pro, macOS 10.14

You may not be able to upgrade from iMovie 8. I don't believe there is any path for doing so.


However, try the following procedure and see if it will work to get the highest version of iMovie that Mojave will run. It usually requires that you have. or have had at one time, a version of iMovie 10 on your Mac. Still, it is worth a try.


To update/redownload iMovie 10, drag your iMovie 10 app (or in your case, iMovie 8) from the Applications

folder into the trash, but do not empty the trash. 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 and return it to the Applications folder.

It should do if you carry out the instructions posted by Rich.
