Me neither. I do it either directly in a .lc server page, or else the

On this issue, isn't it possible to let a web server detect the OS
requesting the download? So the server can then do the picking and send
the right version to the requestor?
Or maybe the info available to the server about the requesting OS isn't
that detailed. Not sure. At least I'm sure I
I'm very happy to announce the second edition of my book Programming
LiveCode for the Real Beginner. The previous edition stems from the time
of LiveCode 6 and since then many features have been added to --and some
removed from-- LiveCode. One of the major changes concerns Unicode.

I'm not saying YOUR experience is invalid. I guess I am just saying we
have really really really computer naive customers and Apple has gone
and complicated things and it creates a support burden for us that we
would not have had to expend resources addressing if Apple had not done
this.
Another "fun" feature of the newer macOS versions is the new Privacy
(tab in the Security and Privacy pane of the System Preferences).
It seems that running our app generates a number of system dialogs of
the form "[[OUR APPLICATION]] wants access to " with "OK" and "Don't
Allow" buttons.
Thanks to a new forum user who provided a handy sample stack, I was able
to pin down a recipe for making a very common form of printing on
Windows completely unusable:

Hello Jacque,
What Android version does your device run? A rough guess is that the
problem is security/permissions related. On Android 9+ there is something
equivalent to iOS ATS that blocks connections that do not comply with some
security standards. You can workaround this by adding a suitable

LC is not the only app bringing up this alert.
The standard way to open non-notarized apps is to right-click (cntl-click) on

You will then be presented with a dialog asking if you really want to open the

Once you do this LC will open.

Hello,
I just installed LC Indy 9.5.0. on MacOS 10.15 Catalina
I can't start LC Indy. My Mac tells me:
"LiveCode Indy 9.5.0 can't be opened, because Apple can't search for malware
in this app." This software has to be updated.
Probably this was already a question on this list, but I

One annoyance from Catalina and Notarization for me as a developer:
LiveCode 9.x.x supports macOS 10.9 (Mavericks) through 10.15 (Catalina).
For our app built on LC9.x.x, we support those versions of macOS as
well. However, a Notarized DMG (one way of addressing Apple's

But the installers for drivers and the installer you want to use are not
different. And what else does anyone have to go on but their experiences, and
other people's experiences? I need to tap into that resource! ;-)
