64bit version?
« on: November 06, 2019, 01:25:09 PM »
Hi
I keep getting a message from Mac saying this

"Apple's transition to 64-bit technology is now complete. Starting with macOS Catalina, 32-bit apps are no longer compatible with macOS. If you have a 32-bit app, please check with the app developer for a 64-bit version."

Does that mean photo mechanic will no longer work with my mac? Or is a 64 bit version imminent?
TIA
Penny

Photo Mechanic 6 which is a 64-bit application was released in March of this year.

Hi,
Yes. You have to upgrade to PM6 if you move to macOS Catalina.

Kirk, the restraint in your reply is admirable.
