And it retains 32-bit support, while still allowing you to upgrade everything you can to 64-bit. So Mojave sits at the intersection that maximizes compatibility and minimizes trouble. That is gradually including more visual and musical tools, too.īut conversely, if you use Catalina, you’re likely to lose older plug-ins and apps you need. If you’re using an older OS, you’re likely to lose support for newer applications – and not only Apple’s, but also a lot of apps on the App Store and those relying on Metal and other newer cross-platform frameworks.
Mojave has some features that make it worth the upgrade on any reasonably modern Mac. rEDfhzwJFe- Chris Randall May 13, 2020ĭisclaimer: Please remember that leaving your OS as-is, working, is a totally viable option. Also, even beyond the issues we can quantify (like 32-bit support), frustrations with developing on Catalina have led a number of developers – audio developers in particular – to privately and sometimes publicly resort to some, uh, colorful language:Īlso too, fucking Catalina.
Right, so what you want to run at this point for the latest-and-greatest new software is either:īut you definitely don’t want to run Catalina if you have any 32-bit software, 32-bit plug-ins, or drivers and applications that have other compatibility issues with Catalina’s very particular security requirements. (Well, it does.) Or the releases of Final Cut Pro X and Motion from late last year.īut wait – what Mac version am I on again? Uh well it’s ten point … something. Hey, that new Logic Pro X looks really cool.
Here’s how to do it (including links to advice for when your App Store isn’t cooperating). Unless you have brand new Mac hardware, it’s likely you want to run macOS Mojave for now for greater compatibility.
