Updating Keynote to an older version

Hi I need some help with this too. I reinstalled Mac OS Monterrey from scratch from a bootable drive. Now with a fresh install on my hands, I realize Keynote, Pages and Numbers aren't there. When trying to install from App Store, I get the message that Keynote requires Mac OS to be minimum version 13. What the heck ?

Please help

Hey efe23,

That is correct, macOS Monterey is the latest macOS version compatible with your MacBook Pro, so you won't see the option to upgrade to macOS Ventura. However, you should be able to update to the latest version of macOS Monterey 12.7 (released on September 21, 2023) as outlined in What's new in the updates for macOS Monterey - Apple Support.

Apple apps like Pages, Numbers, and Keynote versions will follow macOS versions, so you won't have the option to update to a version that is not compatible with your current macOS version.

The best way to get the latest version of Keynote compatible with your MacBook is to check and to see if you have an update available for Keynote in the Mac App Store under "Updates," but we urge you to troubleshoot updating to macOS Monterey 12.7 first.

You can confirm macOS compatibility here:

macOS Monterey is compatible with these computers - Apple Support

macOS Ventura is compatible with these computers - Apple Support

Kindest Regards.
