macOS 13: Working and broken apps

[RoboCop001]

I don’t know what version I have but it is probably pretty close to the latest and it works fine. I’ll check the version later when I get to work.

Awesome, thank you! I don't think my work uses the latest, but hopefully it works so I can upgrade.

I just found this page on the GP website. I'm assuming the "GlobalProtect App" refers to the menu item thing. Looks like 5.2.12 and above does work, so that would mean no for my version.

It's only specific versions of 5.2 and 6.0. Releases for 5.3 and 6.1 don't seem to work.

I've gone ahead and updated the Wiki post.

I'm using 5.2.10-6 and it works. From 2021 from the looks of it.

I actually just heard back from my IT guy and he upgraded his computer to Ventura. Version 5.2.7-37 is working for him, even though the website doesn't include that one! I'll update the wiki with this.

Saw that, and already downloaded it. As it is, this site:

Application Compatibility Table — RoaringApps

Crowd-sourced application compatibility for macOS, iOS and Windows.

roaringapps.com

is a good one to use for determining compatibility with Ventura. In my case, except for LibreOffice, all the other apps I use are compatible (I did communicate with Devon Technologies about EasyFind, and they answered me with a yes). I was definitely glad to see that SuperDuper! was recently updated, and is compatible.

I still want to test Ventura, though, before making the finale move from V12.6.1 of Monterey. Best Buy has the Samsung T7 Shield 1TB External SSD on sale (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsun...-resistant-drive-blue/6501718.p?skuId=6501718), and I plan on purchasing one. I will then initially use it to test Ventura. But will wait until V13.1 is released, which I suspect will be soon.

Hey everyone, first, wish to express my appreciation to all you brave souls that test applications with beta versions of the Mac OS. I am too chicken to do it, preferring to wait until at least one stable release of the actual Mac OS has appeared. Thus, I am waiting until Ventura, OS 13.1, is released for my initial testing of all my apps.

Secondly, here are the primary apps I use:

1Password
AppCleaner
Brave
EasyFind
Full Deck Solitaire (mainly for occasional entertainment)
LibreOffice
Magic Number Machine
Onyx
Quicken 2017
SuperDuper!
TechTool Pro
Thunderbird
VLC

I admit that I don't use very many "heavy" or demanding applications. I do, though, make sure to keep each of them up to date.

Third, via that site I mentioned above, https://roaringapps.com/apps, except for LibreOffice, Full Deck Solitaire, Magic Number Machine (not even mentioned), and TechTool Pro, everything else works fine. Onyx, of course, has just released a separate version for Ventura. I also recently upgraded to V3.7 of SuperDuper!, and the other day successfully used it on both of my M1 Macs running Monterey for making backups to external SSDs.

Fourth, when I moved from my Intel machines (late 2018 Mac Mini, and 2018 MacBook Air) to M1 machines (2020 M1 Mac Mini, and 2021 M1 MacBook Air), after doing a clean installation of the applicable Mac OS at each event, I then did a usual migration of all my apps, settings, etc. Have not encountered any issues from doing that.

Finally, has anyone had the opportunity to test the latest version of SuperDuper! with Ventura? That application, of course, is probably the most critical one I use. (I did look back through this forum for possible information about that, but did not see anything).

All work without problem.

KeePassXC 2.7.3 is failing on macOS 13. It will launch, but as soon as I give it the pass phrase to unlock my database it crashes.

Edit - Confirmed that it's not isolated to my unsupported MacBook Air 6,2. On my supported iMac 18,3 KeePassXC still shows the same behavior.

Edit edit - Strongbox is working on macOS 13, so it's a viable app to use as a workaround.

Just upgraded to KeePassXC 2.7.4 and it is working in Ventura. I have updated the main post accordingly.

Hi, does WatchGuard Mobile VPN work on Ventura?
update 07.11.2022: after upgrading to Ventura WatchGuard Mobile VPN does not work. I changed it to OpenVPN and it's fine now

I received the Samsung T7 Shield 1 TB Portable SSD last night:

And have updated as many of my applications as "possible". Still don't know whether the current version of LibreOffice, V7.4.2.3, is compatible with Ventura (I am anticipating it will b e fine). Just waiting for V13.1 of Ventura to be released for my testing.

LibreOffice 7.3.5.2 working fine on my M1 Studio on Ventura 13.0

Thanks for the update. I can thus expect the later version of LibreOffice that I have, V7.4.2.3, will work.

That just leaves the most important one, the latest version of SuperDuper!, V3.7, and Ventura. As I've mentioned before, it works just fine with Monterey.

I think everyone should be aware that Safari is still buggy in macOS Ventura.

Bug: pinned tabs disappear if you use the “Merge all windows” function.

Why this is a problem: many of us heavy multitaskers will collect pinned tabs throughout the day, and eventually end up with multiple Safari windows; which means inevitably we’ll want to merge all windows to clean things up. Well…say good-bye to a full day or two of pinning tabs.

(No, frustratingly, Safari Technology Preview hasn’t fixed this bug either)

I’ve seen quite a few reports about VPN connections not working properly any more. Can anyone confirm that theirs is still working and which type of VPN that is?

my VPN is working correctly and I am using PIA.The one thing I had to do was disable the Kill switch when I installed it. Have had no need to re-enable it since I am on a desktop.

IVPN works fine here, on both my silicon & intel macs (but i had to uninstall/reinstall it when updating the OS)...

According to the IVPN website, it has a choice of WireGuard, OpenVPN or IPSec protocols. Which one do you use? I’m looking for IPSec experiences, because that’s what I use.

Also, not sure if all of you saw this, but yesterday I posted a link in the Ventura "Bugs, etc." forum about an issue with the release version of Ventura (V13.0): causing issues with anti-virus software. And so far, it is still not fixed in the V13.1 beta.

Please keep the discussion on-topic and civil. A number of off-topic posts had derailed the thread, so a clean up has been carried out to bring the thread back to the original subject - Working and Broken Apps with MacOS 13.

Probably never. Ventura Beta 13.1 has already been issued and is working fine for me.

so at the end they must have had some serious fixes to address. 13.0.1. released today

 

[jonahlee]

Stream Deck 5.3.3.15214 is not working for me, with it installed it says that the application is damaged. Has anyone else gotten this to work?

 

[Chozun]

What I'm wondering is if the fix for Ventura causing issues for security (anti-virus) software is included. Also, what fixes does the V13.1 beta have that V13.0.1 lacks?
