Hi I have an old MacBook Pro (mid 2012) and have cleared it off so my son can create music on it using GarageBand. however in cleaning it up I removed the older garageband and now when I Redownload it from my App Store purchases I cannot open it because I need to have OS11. Problem is this MacBook is not compatible for this update so was wondering if there was a way to get GarageBand on this MacBook Pro?
I have a MacBook Pro (Retina 15-inch, Early 2013)
Currently using Catalina 10.15.7 because Big Sur is not compatible with my hardware.
My previous version of GarageBand was not compatible with Catalina, so I trashed it.
How can a get a copy of GarageBand that will run on Catalina 10.15.7 ? Maybe GarageBand 10 10.3.5 ?
I note that an Answer above recommends sending feedback to request that an older version be made available - but I don't know how to do this.
Thanks.

Thanks Kieth, unfortunately when I restore the 2016 app that I downloaded it won't open. Will try and see if I can request an older version.
I have similar issue and it doesn't seem to be the case for me. I'm still getting error that I need MacOS 11 whem I'm trying to install Garageband on my Catalina macbook :(
None of the solutions worked for me so far.
I have a mid 2012 MacBook Air and can't install GarageBand because I need MacOS 11 and I can't get that update because my MacBook isn't compatible with that update and I never owned GarageBand for MacOS before so is there any way I can get the older version of GarageBand because I really enjoy using GarageBand to record and produce music PLEASE HELP ME OUT !!!!
Thanks Kieth. I have provided feedback to the GarageBand team.
I am not sure if they will reply to me personally (the disclaimer on the webpage said that they would not).
I will wait a few days to see if anything happens. If not, I will contact the Apple Support Team. Thanks again.
You can look in the purchases tab of the app store.
You can restore the old GarageBand from a backup.
You can send feedback to request that the old version be made available.
I have now unlinked my apple id to the old MacBook and it is allowing me to open the older version of garagaband. I really don't know what has happened but seems to have work so my son can now get back to using it :)
.
Apple seems to have fixed the download for GarageBand 10.3.5 on Catalina from the previous purchases. Today I could reinstall it again.
