HI, Irvin,


Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities. I see that you're having trouble getting Numbers downloaded onto your Mac, which is running macOS High Sierra 10.13.6. I'd be happy to help!


Based on the information you've described, I'd recommend first heading into the macOS App Store and searching for Numbers here. You should be able to download and install a compatible version without issue.


If you are doing this and still cannot install Numbers, the next thing I can suggest is trying to install in safe mode: , then a new user account if you still cannot install it: .


Should you still have trouble, don't hesitate to respond back. If you do, please answer the following questions:


  1. What is the exact year and model of MacBook Pro that you are using? Example: MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2019, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports). You can get this under the Apple  menu > About This Mac.
  2. At what point during the download and installation process are you running into an issue? Example: are you unable to locate Numbers? Is there no option to download it?
  3. Do you get any error messages at any point? If so, what is the exact text of the error?


Best!

Hey All,


I'm having the same issue. I read on another post (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250781090?page=2) from BenjPhoto: "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"


This didn't work for me. I still get the same error message stating that the OS needs to be 10.14 or higher.


MacOS: 10.13.6

MacBook Pro: 13-inch, Late 2011


Thanks.
