I've seen a lot of posts with people having similar issues installing GarageBand on their older Macs. I made the mistake of doing a clean install of MacOS 10.13.6, which is High Sierra. I tried installing GarageBand from the App Store, but it just kept crashing. After fussing with Apple support for two days, the simple answer is 'It doesn't work'!

Apr 21, 2021 Download GarageBand 10.4.3 for Mac from our website for free. This free program was developed to work on Mac OS X 10.9 or later. The application is included in Audio & Video Tools. The most popular versions among the application users are 10.0, 6.0 and 5.1. This free Mac application was originally designed by Apple Inc. ICloud GarageBand everywhere. Tweak your tracks. ICloud allows you to keep your GarageBand sessions up to date across all your iOS devices. Using iCloud Drive, you can import song sketches to your Mac and take them even further, then share your finished piece on any of your devices.
There is a solution however, but you have to be willing to revert back to a previous version of MacOS. The earliest version you can still download and install from Apple is Yosemite. After jumping through some hoops, I am happy to report everything works as it did before I made the mistake of upgrading my MacOS to High Sierra. Here's how I did it. WARNING, PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR SYSTEM AND DATA
In order to install a working version of GarageBand, you will need two things:
- An App store account with a historical purchase of GarageBand that you can click on to redownload and install a copy of GarageBand. The App Store will automatically check what MacOS you are running, and download an older, compatible version.
- You need to be running MacOS Yosemite.
Download Yosmite MacOS
Click on this link: https://support.apple.com/en-ph/HT211683
Scroll down to the Yosemite link and click on it. Your web browser will download the Yosemite installer as a disk image named InstallOS.dmg or InstallMacOSX.dmg. This next step does not actually install the MacOS. It just installs the installation application so that you can run the installer. Open the disk image, then open the .pkg installer inside the disk image. It will install an app named “Install OS X Yosemite” in your Applications folder. Now you are ready to create a bootable USB startup disk containing the Yosemite MacOS installer.
Create Bootable USB
Plug a 16GB (minimum size) USB thumb drive into your Mac. Next, rename the drive: USB. In order to create a bootable drive, you will need to use a Mac app called Terminal. You can find the Terminal app inside the Applications folder, inside the Utilities folder. Launch Terminal. You will be using the 'createinstallmedia' command in Terminal.
Type or paste the command below in Terminal. The command assumes that the installer is already in your Applications folder, and USB is the name of the USB flash drive you're using (as directed above. The syntax must be exact!
sudo /Applications/Install OS X Yosemite.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/USB --applicationpath /Applications/Install OS X Yosemite.app

Installing Yosemite MacOS
Restart your Mac holding the “Option” key. This will put your Mac into Restore mode. When the OS comes up, it will prompt you for which hard drive to boot from. Select your “Install OS X Yosemite” USB drive.
The installer will launch a minimal OS containing a restore application menu. Before you can install your new Yosemite OS, you will need to erase your existing hard drive.
WARNING, THIS NEXT STEP IS IRREVERSIBLE!!! MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR SYSTEM AND DATA BACKED UP, AND YOU HAVE AN ALTERNATE METHOD TO INSTALL THE LAST VERSION OF MAC OS YOU ARE CURRENTLY RUNNING. NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST DATA.
Launch the Disk Utility app, select your internal hard drive, and erase it. It will reformat as MacOS Extended Journaled.
Quit the Disk Utility app, which will return you to the restore application menu. Now select the “Install Mac OS app from the list, and proceed to installing a copy of Yosemite.
