I needed to refresh an app today, not one in any store, just a utility app I made for a friend. It didn’t go easily! First issue was that between my old MacBook Pro running macOS 10.14, and my new MacBook Pro running 10.13.6, I couldn’t find a combination of LiveCode and Xcode that would work.

You could write that you have tested under iOS 12, maybe that would be ok? Saying that you had to do something proactive in order to support iOS 12 is indirectly reporting that Apple software had issues. > On Sep 10, 2018, at 11:37 AM, Randy Hengst via use-livecode > wrote: > > Hi Andrew, >
