Pages and High Sierra 10.13

Today I was able to download both Numbers and Keynote for High Sierra from the app store. When I tried to do it directly it did not work. I searched for "numbers High Sierra Download" and clicked the top Apple link. This took me to a page where I chose "Download" which opened the App Store. Instead of "Get" the button said, "Install". When I clicked on that it offered to let me download an earlier compatible version. Tried it with Keynote and the same process was available. When I tried it with Pages it tells me I need a higher version OS.

Maybe they're correcting this and just haven't done it for Pages yet...... maybe.....

It is a good idea to read previous posts in a thread as your circumstance was already addressed. If your Mac is unable to upgrade to Mojave or Catalina, then you will not be able to download any of Pages, Numbers, or Keynote from the App Store until you do. The last two operating systems are now a prerequisite to those application installations.

I have since come across a solution, albeit a bit radical one. There is a software engineer that has issued an updater to allow older macs to use Catalina. I've loaded it and it seems pretty stable. I was able to get the latest version of Pages from the app store. I'm certain it's not Apple certified, but our older macs are out of warranty and support anyway.

It was pretty easy. There's a video to watch before starting.

In my previous MacBook Air it says that i purchased Pages, Number and Keynote in 2015. But in my newly purchased second hand MacBook Pro which uses OS High Sierra there is no list of those previously purchased apps in the App Store.

A couple of weeks ago I have had a purchase of Pages for High Sierra. But yesterday I reinstalled Mac OS. I didn't save Pages because I didn't see necessary - I purchased Pages recently and thought to buy it again. But I can't to buy it for High Sierra, only for Catalina, but Catalina is not for my iMac 21,5 mid 2011. When I reinstalled my Mac, I changed my Apple ID. Why I can't to purchase version Pages for High Sierra in App Store? The policy of Apple company seems very strange for me because I am old Apple user, I use iMac, Macbook Air and iPhone for long time. But now I need to think about change my tech priorities.

good for you, surprised they let you link that here.

is catalina worth the risk?

Mojave is incredible and ran great on my 2012 Mac mini which i sold last year

I'm running High sierra on my macbook 2010 and everything is smooth, except pages.

i do use libreoffice but would like the autosave for iPad and MacBook option.

Thanks, Ill give that a shot.

instala una versión de prueba, (para esto googlea un poco)

luego actualizas hasta donde te deje.

apple esta empeñada en hundir su propio negocio.

THANK YOU!!!

Took me days to find a real answer!

Except I was ABLE to download older versions for two out of the three. Had I read and accepted the prior posts I might not have tried.

Yes this works, just log in to icloud and upload your doc, you can slect the text or save out the doc

You should be able to go to “Purchased” in the MAC App Store and download the older versions.

I have installed pages pages, numbers en keynote by my install history. The possibylity for downloaded an older version is being done!

I am, don't now where installed((

Apple thinks we will all buy a brand new laptop instead of using another source for pages.

Apple does not know we did, I purchased DellXPS in 2019 over their stubborness.
