Over time I’ve had a few messages from users who have had various problems when running Plant Base on the later versions of the Mac operating systems. This is difficult because in most cases I cannot reproduce or verify the issues. My Mac development machine needs to stay on an old version of the OS in order to maximise compatibility. However, a visiting family member recently\u00a0 turned up with a rather swish MacBook running the latest MacOS Mojave.\u00a0 He was kind enough to load and test Plant Base 2.1.9.<\/p>\n

I’m pleased to say that the application installed and ran with no problems whatsoever. His system was already enabled to allow installation of non-store applications, so after downloading the standard .dmg file, Plant Base was up and running in a couple of minutes. No fuss and everything worked correctly.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately no amount of testing can guarantee problem-free running on every system as there are innumerable possible variations of end-user’s hardware and configuration. But this test does give good verification that in principle the Plant Base program will execute on most Mac systems, right up to the latest releases.<\/p>\n

The current standard Plant Base for Mac is a 32-bit application. In the near future Apple intend to end support for 32-bit. A 64-bit edition of the Plant Base program already exists but is not on general release yet due to the limited ability of in-house testing. It’s available on request and we are looking at providing it for normal download.<\/p>\n
