JakHay Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I can't find a definitive list of the system requirements for logic pro (x). Most specifically, I'd like to know what are the latest versions of logic for all recent OS versions. A google search for "latest logic version" brings up many articles about 10.5, although 10.6 clearly exists. I also searched the app store and apple's website, but I could not find anything that tells me what the absolute latest version of Logic is. (I'm interested in the minor revisions, so "10.6" is not a good answer - I'm looking for something like"10.6.3 r1137") A simple list similar to this: https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/articles/en_US/compatibility/en343311?popup=true&retURL=%2Fpkb%2Farticles%2Fcompatibility%2FPro-Tools-System-Requirements is what I'm looking for. Thanks Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
des99 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) For latest versions of Logic: 10.5.x requires Mojave (last version) 10.6.x requires Catalina The latest version of Logic at time of writing is 10.6.1: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT203718 The AppStore shows the versions by clicking on "Version History", which goes back as far as the first update of Logic Pro X, 10.0.7, 6 years ago. Earlier versions I'd have to check exactly to get them bang on, but some searching here will give you that info if you look around - people have asked for this list before. What's this for exactly? What version of MacOS are you running? Edited February 19, 2021 by des99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplets Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Apple doesn't have a list like Avid does. This is all you get: https://www.apple.com/logic-pro/specs/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulc2021 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Hi Jack You're not the only one who just wants a simple compatibility chart for Logic. I've created a Logic Pro Compatibility spreadsheet as Apple hasn't. It's a work-in-progress and open source but hopefully it'll help going forward. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OERErBm7jVp550BxK-DYOkzG97dl1Ganq2Ahmfv_Y1w/edit?usp=sharing 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bernarada Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 In passing, about Jack's chart... Logic 10.6.3 can be installed on Catalina—though I have the latest version running on a M1 Pro at home, I'm running 10.6.3 on Catalina on an old MacBook Pro that I use for a mobile live setup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeRobinson Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 This is useful information. You might want to submit a formal enhancement-request to Apple Support suggesting that it be added to the public documentation. Include a link to your file for their convenience and to show exactly what you're talking about. Lots of musicians do run earlier versions of Logic on earlier, older computers which they take with them on tour, keeping their latest computers at home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bernarada Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I know it does, fisherking, that's what I pointed out since Jacks chart says it doesn't. I was just wondering what Mike meant by Apple's "public documentation." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zplane Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 The Logic Pro installer pkg will not allow you to install a given version of Logic on a version of MacOS it is not supported on, i.e., so there should be no harm in trying to do a test install which will either be denied or you can abort the install if the installer passes the pre-install tests. That can be hacked, but the subsequent install won't be supported by Apple. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

des99 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 If you bought your Logic Pro licence from Apple, under that AppleID, it will show in your Purchased Items. And you’ll be able to download updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe you had more than 1 Apple ID and you signed into the wrong one? You may have purchased Logic with another Apple ID you have forgotten about?

Jnortoft Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 I am running Catalina 10.15.7 but Logic will not upgrade past 10.5.1. Can anyone explain why I am unable to use Logic 10.6.3? Or whether it is even available anymore? Thank you much. (And extra thanks to Paul for his spreadsheet.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Morrison Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Hello @David Nahmani - I'm pulling the compatibility information from official release notes and various compatibility articles. The macOS 10.12.6 Sierra compatible version was incorrectly listed as 10.4.8. I've corrected this and have now included the corresponding macOS point release versions: macOS 10.9.5 Mavericks - Logic Pro X 10.2.4 macOS 10.10.5 Yosemite - Logic Pro X 10.2.4 macOS 10.11.6 El Capitan - Logic Pro X 10.3.3 macOS 10.12.6 Sierra - Logic Pro X 10.4.4 macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra - Logic Pro X 10.4.8 macOS 10.14.6 Mojave - Logic Pro X 10.5.1 macOS 10.15.7 Catalina - Logic Pro 10.6.3 macOS 11.7.4 Big Sur - Logic Pro 10.7.4 macOS 12.6.4 Monterey - Logic Pro 10.7.7 macOS 13.3 Ventura - Logic Pro 10.7.7 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
