None of this however helps you at this stage, I'm afraid.


Under these circumstances if Apple are happy for you to have iMovie on your Yosemite /El Capitan Mac then why don't they allow you to have it anyway? This is because your second Mac( OS 10.13.6 or later) would place iMovie onto your Purchased page and enable you to downloadĪ compatible version of iMovie onto your Yosemite Mac. The thing is that if you had a second Mac with OS 10.13.6 or later ( High Sierra or Mojave) and you had iMovie on that, then you would be able to get a compatible version of iMovie for your Mac running Yosemite ( or El Capitan if you upgraded to that). Those upgrading to Yosemite or El Capitan, as probably in your case, after they were superseded have unfortunately missed the boat. macOS 10.11 El Capitan, iMovie 10.1.3, iMovie 10.1.4, iMovie 10.1.5, iMovie 10.1.6. It is a shame that Apple do not allow users, who can only upgrade as far as El Capitan, to download the compatible version of iMovie.You had to download iMovie whilst Yosemite /El Capitan was the current OS. but that still would not allow you to get iMovie. Your Mac could probably be upgraded to run El Capitan.
