Hi everyone,

I’ve managed to get LiveCode Community 9.6.3 working on macOS Tahoe using the appropriate patch released by the OpenXTalk team. Obviously, this is only useful for in-house software development, since if you distribute compiled applications, you’ll need to apply the patch to the operating system. macOS Tahoe still uses Rosetta 2, which they say will be deprecated in macOS 27, so LiveCode should continue to work at least on macOS with updates until 2029, after which the LiveCode Community edition on macOS will be over. I’m currently also trying to get it working on Linux operating systems with pure Wayland (like the new versions of **Fedora/Red Hat/**etc.), but I haven’t been successful yet. I recommend not using this in production and using the current paid version of LiveCode if you need a serious app.

Best,
Hery

Apple made a change to menus in, i thin, Sonoma? (+/- 1 release). This broke menus in LC and any LC standalone on that version of macOS or above. LC, Ltd had to release a new version of LC to fix the menu issue so LC would run on versions higher than Sonoma. 9.6.3 is definitely BEFORE this fix. The symptom is exactly as described below. The app just quiting on start up (when it tries to initialize any menus). Some people has success with Standalone that had NO menus continuing to run.

Hello again, Glen,

I have an M1 Mac here at work running macOS Tahoe. Unfortunately, my instructions didn’t work. 🙁 LiveCode opens, but then it closes immediately without showing any error message.

Best,
Hery

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has successfully gotten the last community
edition of livecode running on Tahoe.

The version I tried was 9.6.3

Also, is it possible to do a build from the last github community release?

regards,
