There also seems to be a frequent issue where the only way to get one of the windows into focus is to click into another application, and then into that livecode window. -- Dr. Richard E.

RE: [OT-ish] Updating MacBook from El Capitan to Sierra to install Xcode 8.3+
Thanks Jerry et al! I did the upgrade with no problems. I would caution anyone doing this (or any major upgrade/install) is to be patient. The install progress bar froze for an hour or more. It appeared to be cut into stone with no estimated time to completion. This was after the install progress bar logged that there were 20 minutes left for about 1.5 hours. I went to bed and in the am it was finished and I logged in with no problems.

Re: [OT-ish] Updating MacBook from El Capitan to Sierra to install Xcode 8.3+
I am using Sierra, but I am noticing that sometimes I will click a button (not in LC I mean in ANY OS doalig) and then have to click it again to complete the click. I know I clicked it the first time because I get visual feedback like the button getting darket after the first click.

Thanks Monte and The Doctor... I should have explored a little deeper on the "High" version.

Re: [OT-ish] Updating MacBook from El Capitan to Sierra to install Xcode 8.3+
It’s High Sierra that has APFS, and I did have major problems in trying that. It may be better by now, but when I had to wipe my drive I went back to regular HFS+. LiveCode seems to be working ok. > On Aug 3, 2017, at 3:28 PM, Ralph DiMola via use-livecode > wrote: > > I'm going to do this Friday night and was looking for any advice/tricks to > make this go smooth(as much as possible).
