Re: Horrible Catalina

Ok thanks Peter. I see now two options available for the 32 bit check. Will take a look to see what I have at risk of 32 bit programs.  Kind Regards Peter Crisp - Original Message - From: wamug@wamug.org.au To: Cc: Sent:Fri, 1 May 2020 07:55:51 +0800 Subject:Re: Horrible Catalina On 30

Re: Horrible Catalina

Thanks for that Peter. I don't think I have ever launched Numbers in my life. I must take a look for my curiosity.   Kind Regards Peter Crisp - Original Message - From: wamug@wamug.org.au To: Cc: Sent:Fri, 1 May 2020 08:09:20 +0800 Subject:Re: Horrible Catalina On 30 Apr 2020, at 3:05

Re: Bad Catalina

Re: Horrible Catalina

Yes, thanks Neil, spot on it comes down to what suits the user. My dear departed Dad was a strong Office 365 proponent too but he was exclusively using his Mac and for the reasons you mention, it suited his lifestyle well too. Kind Regards Peter Crisp - Original Message - From: wamug

Re: Bad Catalina

e answer to this one, are apps installed on OSX machines running Catalina, subject in the same way to 32bit V 64bit compatibility? I presume so but keen to hear from others if they have any wisdom on this.  Kind Regards Peter Crisp - Original Message - From: wamug@wamug.org.au To:"wam

Re: Horrible Catalina

Thanks Stephen for this and the other email on the Office link. I presume there is a way to screen all applications installed to confirm the 32bit/64bit compatibility as a predecessor before deciding to launch into Catalina update. Kind Regards Peter Crisp - Original Message - From
