Anyone using Retroactive? It installed, ran to completion and finished the install and I went to open FCP7, one of the legacy apps it was designed for, ...nothing.
Got a tip for us?

I have "Retroactive" installed in Catalina, use it to gain access to iPhoto and iTunes, does the job well for me.
There is a thread for "Retroactive" here.
Retroactive: Mac app that lets you run Aperture, iPhoto, or iTunes on macOS Catalina
I downloaded and installed Retroactive 1.5 - I'm running OS X 10.15.3 - I told Retroactive to download iTunes - when I tried to run iTunes, I got the following message - The file “iTunes Library.itl” cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Would you like to download...

Hi there. Same issue, running Retroactive in Mojave. It "unlocks" it, but ...nothing.

Did you find you were able to keep using the same iTunes library, or was creating a new one necessary?

Honestly I can't recall, but at my age (83) that's rapidly becoming the norm. 😵

That you're running hackmod apps to Frankensteins's Monster old mac apps on new systems at 83 is throughly awesome *rock* 🤘

Thanks for the compliment.🙂
Actually I've been doing this as a hobby since home PC's and Macs made their first debut.😎

Does anyone know how to contact the author TyShawn Cormier other than through github or twitter?
Is he on MR?
