I can't afford a new computer so I am stuck on OS X El Capitan Ver 10.11.6.
Is there anyway I can buy MOHO 12 for that system?
Thanks living in hope. LOL

I think the OP question may be more about "will Moho 12 run on OSX10.11" rather than "where can I buy Moho 12" (and not being a mac user I can't really help with the difference between OSX and MacOS).

https://my.smithmicro.com/moho-updates.html gives a link to downloads for 12.3 MacOs 10.9 and 12.5 (MacOs 10.10-10.14) -- it might be possible to get Moho12 and run in demo mode to check if it will run on the El Capitan platform?

From What I read there.
I am guessing these are updates for if you already have MoHo 12. Would that be correct?

@ everyone
Thank you for the Links.
I am wondering though.
Do you need a serial number to open this software from Amazon or Ebay and if so do they come with one?
Also would this serial number work with SM for updates upgrades etc?
If you can answer these questions I will appreciate it.
Thanks again to everyone who answered.

I just tried a download - it gave me a 576Mb file Moho_12.3_Mac_ESD_2.pkg which I guess is a "from scratch" installer - so, nope, it looks like the whole thing not just a "patch" file to update a previous 12.x (sorry, but I know diddly squat about Macs) .. and (by comparison to how the windows installer works) if it does successfully install and run, it will do so in "demo mode" which will at least answer the "will it run on my platform?" question. At that point, you'll know if it's worth shelling out for a licence.

I don't know about eBay but years ago I purchased a digital download for version 9.0 from Amazon. At the time, it was cheaper to buy the software through Amazon than buying the upgrade version directly from SM and, yes, it came with a serial number.

I just now checked the software purchases in my Amazon account and, yep, there is still a serial number in there as well as a download link. The vendor is listed as Smith-Micro so it was a legit purchase, just done through Amazon instead of through the SM website.

This was a long time ago of course (2013) and I don't know if SM still sells through Amazon.

Edit: It looks like SM still sells Moho Pro 12 at Amazon but not Moho Pro 13.

@ hayasidist: It runs fine on 10.11.6 so I went to buy but it only took me to Ver 13 which I can not run tried the demo. So I guess I'll try Amazon. I only need 12.5.
Again thanks to everyone who replied and all your kind help.

Hope you can get it and have it up and running soon. 12.5 was a solid release. We're still using it at my workplace.
