The person on the phone was very nice and was genuinely trying to be helpful, but in the end answered the question ‘Can You Download an Older Version of GarageBand? by saying that there is currently no way to get an older version of GarageBand without owning the software previously. They went on to say that I could schedule a call with a GarageBand specialist to discuss further. Which i did.Īfter ‘meeting them in DM’ the Apple support person went on to say that “it does not appear that there is is a way to get an older version of GarageBand without owning the software previously”. I honestly thought that I must just be missing something really obvious, so I reached out to Apple support on Twitter, figuring that they would surely be able to point me in the direction….Īfter mentioning the solutions I’ve already mentioned in this video, they invited me to DM them for more info. Unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to be the case. If you’ve bought an older, Big Sur incompatible Mac second hand and don’t have any purchase history linked to your iCloud account then you’re probably wondering how you can download an older version of GarageBand that works with your Machine, right? There must be a page or link on apple’s website that will let new Apple users with older Macs download the newest version that your machine can handle. No, this won’t be the newer 10.4 version, it’ll probably be 10.3.5 which despite looking different from the current version, works in exactly the same way, you’re not missing out on any big features by using this older version or anything.

Click to download it and the last available version that is compatible with your machine will be installed on your Mac.

Scroll through this list of previously purchased apps until you find GarageBand.

Click on your face – it’s in the bottom left of the window for me, it may be somewhere else for you if you’re running a version of macOS older than Mojave.

If you don’t have GarageBand installed, and can’t access the latest version via the Mac App Store, but you HAVE downloaded and installed at some point with the iCloud account you’re signed into your Mac with then it should be a simple fix. That way if you DO have compatibility issues or just hate it or something, you can revert back to your current setup.

If you do plan to update to Big Sur, as always make sure you make a Time Machine backup first. If you have a machine older than the models displayed on screen now then unfortunately you won’t have access to big sur or GarageBand version 10.4. Owning an older machine can actually stop you from accessing any version of GarageBand, but more on that later.

Machines older than six or seven years old are unable to install Apple’s latest operating system and as such, are unable to install the latest version of GarageBand. Having said that most big issues with Big Sur have been sorted, so you shouldn’t really run into many issues though a quick google search will be able to tell you if a particular piece of hardware or software that you rely on is compatible.Īnother issue you may run into regarding Big Sur is the age of your Mac. Hardware and software compatibility issues and macOS updates unfortunately go hand in hand nowadays so holding off from updating to Apple’s shiny new operating system until all the wrinkles have been ironed out is perfectly understandable. So if you haven’t updated to Big Sur, doing so will allow you to download GarageBand from the Mac app store.

The latest version of GarageBand, version 10.4 and above is only available to users who are running MacOS Big Sur.
