iMovie version compatable with OS 10.10.5

Trying to sort out what to look for. Version names and numbers are driving me up a wall...

Which version of iMovie do you have currently installed?


The App Store should be showing you the last version of iMovie 10.x, that is compatible with your current system. For me the App Store is only showing iMovie 10.1.4, the most recent version, and this version requires OS X 10.11.2, so you cannot run it on your system.


The older iMovie 9.0.9 is not really compatible with the newer systems since Yosemite. It runs on Yosemite, but we have seen quite a few reports about crashes or minor glitches.

iMovie 9.x is no longer sold from the AppStore. If you already own it, you can use this updater to update to the last version of iMovie '11, version 9.0.9: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1574?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
