macOS Mojave wants everything to be 64-bit (although it is possible to run 32-bit. If not, make sure you update to the latest versions. Apple announced in 10.13 (High Sierra) that they'll be ending support for 32-bit apps (10.13 and 10.14 still support it) but they promise that 10.15 will NOT support 32-bit apps (which is fair considering developers have had a couple of years of notice.)Ĭanon's mac software is all 64-bit as long as you've been keeping up with updates. Apple has announced the end of 32-bit support. There are application developers who have really lagged at rebuilding for 64-bit (often that just ammounts to a recomplile). This includes when Apple switched from using IBM 'POWER' processers to Intel processors and yet still continued to support "universal binaries".Īpple has had all 64-bit hardware and software for many years.

I have never had an upgrade break a system nor any software.
CANON IJ SCAN UTILITY MAC OS MOJAVE TS9020 MAC OS X
I've been running Mac OS X since version 10.2 (2002). With all the bashing, nobody actually knew enough to offer helpful advice. But there's also a lot to be said for the fact that it runs a Unix variant (Unix is inherently a lot more stable.) Some of this is Apple's corporate culture of being fanatical about quality. PC stability, security, total cost of ownership, etc. Quite a bit of research has been done in this area of mac vs. You're also supposing that a person wouldn't have these problems if they ran Windows (they'd have more problems).

I find this interesting considering those casting aspersions don't actually seem to be qualified to do so. I'm not sure why anytime someone posts a question about macs, it turns into an OS bashing session (which really isn't helpful).
