Are you running Roots Magic on a MAC?
« on: Tuesday 08 October 19 06:45 BST (UK) »
I received an email from Roots Magic regarding an issue with the latest Mac operating system update, just in case you might have missed it...

Quote
As much as we hate to say this- we recommend that if you need to be able to run RootsMagic 7 on your Mac, do not update to macOS Catalina. Wait until CodeWeavers finishes their 64-bit wrapper for RootsMagic 7 or for the official release of RootsMagic 8. For most users, there is no urgent need to install Catalina as previous versions of the operating system will continue to work and be supported for quite some time

The rest of the email goes into further technical details but the above paragraph is the important bit.

Hopefully you will not get caught out.
