| 1374971 | 2014-05-14 06:07:00 | Hi All, I have an Apple Imac, older version with Mavericks installed. There is a version of iMovie installed on this computer but looking through the apps store there is a paid version of iMovie there. Do you guys know what the difference would be? I would like to do some editing in the weekend and want a full working program :) My icon for iMovie is yellow, the one on the apple store is purple?!?! |

| 1374972 | 2014-05-14 06:43:00 | If you already have iMovie installed than you dont have to buy the newer one. It should update the older version to the latest version, go to software update and see if it gives you the iMovie update? | ronyville (10611) | ||
| 1374973 | 2014-05-14 08:55:00 | What version of imovie? | plod (107) | ||
| 1374974 | 2014-05-14 09:16:00 | The version of iMovie that comes with Mavericks has a purple star icon. I'm guessing that the yellow icon that you have was the version that came with your iMac originally. Both versions are free. Either version will be fine for some creative video editing. |

| 1374975 | 2014-05-14 09:19:00 | Had a quick google around and I can't find any info on whether iMovie '11 (what I assume OP has) will update to 10.0 or not. Try logging into the app store and looking under the update tab. If you can't update iMovie chances are it will have to be purchased separately. From memory it (10.0) is only free with new Macs. | icow (15313) | ||

| 1374979 | 2014-05-14 12:05:00 | To update to the latest version you will also have to log into the App store with the same apple ID that was originally used on the iMac when iMovie was first put on there. | CYaBro (73) | ||
| 1374980 | 2014-05-14 20:50:00 | Hi guys, the iMovie version is 8.0 and....interesting last post...HOW do I log into APP store with my ID so I get the latest updates????? I had some difficulty installing the software when I first got this Mac as it was second hand, I cant remember IF I made up a new account or not, anyway I can check that? It DOES come up with updates occasionally so I dont understand why iMovie did not get updated? | mark1978 (13845) | ||
