Download a previous version of Final Cut Pro X Hi, my mac can only support mac os High Sierra and I need to download Final Cut Pro X, however, the latest version of this software (10.4.7) needs at least Mojave. Since I can't upgrade, how can I download an older version of Final Cut? (like 10.4.5) Thanks in advance!

Where can I download an older version of iMovie 10? My 2013 Macbook Pro is stuck on Mojave, I can't update to Big Sur OR Catalina because I can't find OS10.15 anywhere. The REAL goal is to get iMovie on this machine. Does anyone know where to get the DMG for iMovie 10.1.**? iMovie 10.2.1 is too new and requiring Catalina which I cannot upgrade to.

iMovie for High Sierra 10.13.6 I had iMovie on my old MacBook, but lost it when I replaced my hard drive with an SSD. When I tried to download it again from my purchases in the App Store, I received an error message that iMovie is not compatible with my OS version High Sierra 10.13.6. Is there any way to download an older version of iMovie because High Sierra is the newest OS that will work on my old laptop?

If you can use a computer with the required minimum iOS version, you can download the new version of an app to it. Now go to your old computer and try downloading it. It will offer an older version if one is available.

Good idea, Limnos. Never thought of that.
