Ultimaker 4.9 Won't run on MacOS 10.11.6

Posted (edited) · Ultimaker 4.9 Won't run on MacOS 10.11.6

Ultimaker 4.8 installed and runs fine on MacOS 10.11.6, El Capitan, which is the newest version of MacOS that my old 2009 Mac supports.

 

But Ultimaker 4.9 refuses to run, saying MacOS 10.13 or higher is required. See attached dialog image.

 

Since 4.9 only consists of bug fixes to 4.8, I don't see why 4.9 shouldn't be able to run on 10.11.6.

 

Please fix this.

    Not all bug fixes can be backported, a number of the ones that we made are of that category.

     

    In order to fix a few bugs we had to upgrade Qt, which no longer supports certain versions of MacOS.

    Well then your software shouldn't have installed itself self-incompatibly.

     

    In any case Cura 4.9 has left something behind itself such that even if I delete it and install 4.8 or even 4.7 it now claims neither of those is compatible with MacOS 10.11.6 either, when I was running them both on this machine at different times. What would that have been? and how do I fix it?

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...

        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
