Would you be able to provide more information on what it is about BBEdit prior to 14.6 that macOS Sonoma would refuse to run it? And is this something likely to affect other applications as well? Thank you. -- Darren Duncan

Since Apple will be shipping macOS Sonoma this coming Tuesday (9/26), here is 
some important compatibility information for all BBEdit customers:

*   macOS Sonoma *will not run* versions of BBEdit older than 14.6. If you 
attempt to run a version of BBEdit older than 14.6 on macOS Sonoma, the OS will 
advise you of this with an alert; confirming the alert will forcibly exit the 
application.

*   If you are currently using a version of BBEdit older than 14.6, and are 
planning to update to macOS Sonoma, we strongly recommend that you update or 
upgrade (as appropriate) to BBEdit 14.6.7 (the current public release, at this 
writing) before installing the new OS version.

BBEdit 14.6.7 is a free update for all BBEdit 14.x customers, and you can obtain it by choosing 
"Check for Updates" from the BBEdit application menu, or by downloading and 
installing it from the BBEdit updates page on our web site: 
<https://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/updates.html> .

If you are using an older version of BBEdit and are planning to upgrade to 
macOS Sonoma, you will need to update or upgrade your installed version, as 
appropriate:

*   If your 30-day evaluation has previously expired, you will get a new 30-day 
evaluation period after installing BBEdit 14.6.7 from our web site: 
<https://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/updates.html> . This is a fine 
opportunity to try out all of the new features that we introduced since the version 
you've been using.

*   If you have a license for an older version of BBEdit (13.x or older), you can 
download and start using BBEdit 14.6.7 immediately. You'll have 30 days of fully 
functional operation, and can obtain significantly discounted upgrade pricing from 
our web store: <https://www.barebones.com/store/bbedit_upgrades.html> .

We have also updated the macOS compatibility page on our web site with this 
information: <https://www.barebones.com/support/new-os.html>.

Full compatibility information will be forthcoming as soon as we complete 
testing with the final release version of the OS.

Thanks for reading,

R.
