October Newsletter

macOS Mojave

So we have a new OS release. Please be aware, as we have mentioned before, with a new OS, that not all K/SN/Pre-K will work, along with certain apps. Do not report everything that does not work, just because it did on 10.13.

There is always a 'grace period' for uploads, with a new OS.
