    See where is says Software, it says OS X 10.9.5 which is Mavericks and that's why you can't get InDesign to install.

    (sorry before i said it was Yosemite, when i meant to say it was Mavericks)

    High Sierra would be 10.13.4.

    You should be able to update to High Sierra.

    Don't know why in your screenshot it says installed.

    Did you at one time try to install High Sierra?

    You must have mac os x Yosemite, which is 10.9.5.

    InDesign system requirements

    You need to upgrade your mac to a later macOS like El Capitan or High Sierra in order to use InDesign 2017 or newer.
