Hello Jerry - Is it possible to grab the latest BookMacster version for a given macOS version?  For example, I have hit the upper OS limit for my hardware but I did not download the last BookMacster version that is supported by that OS (2.11.x I believe).

Does Sheep Systems have a previous download section?

Hello, Hass.

We did not intentionally drop it, but there is a bug in Apple's latest developer tools (Xcode 13) which we used to build version 2.12 of our apps with, which causes the crash on launch.  And then we found more bugs which makes it difficult or maybe impossible to revert back to the previous developer tools on newer Macs.

Since the changes in 2.12 are mostly for compatibility with macOS 12, we've decided to try and wait until Apple fixes some of these bugs rather than spending days trying more workarounds that turn out not to work.  We've fixed our automatic update feed temporarily so that users on 10.10-10.13 will not be offered 2.12.  I've also now updated our website to indicate this so that people do not try to update manually.

So, sorry, revert back to version 2.8, 2.9, 2.10 or 2.11 of our app. whatever was working for you.

Hi
just tried updating to latest version, but on 13.13.6 it doesn't even launch at all.
Does SheepSystems dropped it or its just an issue?
