With today's OneNote for Mac update in the App Store (version 15.7.1), we've changed the minimum system requirements for OneNote to take advantage of the latest and greatest capabilities in Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10). Yosemite (10.10) is a free upgrade and is supported on the same hardware as Mavericks (10.9).

If you previously installed OneNote for Mac and are on OS X Mavericks (10.9), you can continue using the older version of OneNote for Mac, however in order to get today's update or any future OneNote updates, you must upgrade your OS to Yosemite 10.10 or later.

    I've got the same problem, company mac not allowed to upgrade to 10.10, and in need for version 15.4.

    Have searched the web for some time, but so far no result.

    Download link for an older version would be much appreciated!

    Is Actually quiet easy, here are the steps:

    1. Find another Mac running OSX 10.10 or higher
    2. Go to the App Store and sign in with your Apple ID
    3. Download and install the latest version of OneNote
    4. Go back to the Mac running OSX Mavericks and open the App Store
    5. Go to Purchased and download OneNote from the list
    6. When you click download, it will suggest you are able to download a previous version.

    Congratulations!!

    OneNote is now associated with your Apple ID and you can installed on any OSX version. 

    If you don't have a access to another computer running 10.10 or higher, you can backup yours, upgrade to latest OSX, download OneNote and restore your Mac to Mavericks. OneNote will be associated with your Apple ID after being install for the first time.
