Mojave - 10.14 beta 2

Pretty sure Evolv will get right on top of that closer to final/golden release

Welcome and thanks for the heads up 

[TroyACast]

I’m having the same issue. Thankfully I only have the beta on my MacBook and not the iMac. 

[Fabio BUB]

with Mojave I have the same issue on a MacBook,  please fix soon

Thank you

 

[Pelle]

Me too :(

[James]

I've found and worked around the Mojave ...change. The next version will be compatible.

[TroyACast]

How are we going to be able to upload service pack if we can’t open escribe

[Fabio BUB]

i have tried to uninstall the old version 2.o SP 15 and install. the last with the SP 17 but still doesn't work on Mojave, the SP17 add only the support for DNA Go, I have tried on windows.

I keep my fingers crossed for a new version

[chris264]

I unfortunately have the same problem, I hope there will be a compatible version for mojave soon.

[Pelle]

I raised already a ticket at Evovle Help Desk. They promised me to check what s happened with the code. Hope they are able to fix it soon. 

[dogcow]

Same problem here cannot use Escribe with MacOS 10.14 Mojave, none of the suite works incl. DNA GO 😞

[Wayneo]

Answered here.

Nope. Not 'fixed'. Device Manager launches but Escribe & Theme Manager do not.

[Fabio BUB]

Now Mojave is released! When the new release of Escribe fixed for Mojave?

[jb_bryant]

Same issue here on SP17. When will the new version be released?

[Pelle]

Good question. I hope they will fix it asap. It's such a sad situation!!! Maybe it makes sense to raise a new ticket at https://helpdesk.evolvapor.com/index.php?a=add&category=1

[JaI Haze]

do we know how long until the next release

[Shooter03]

I'm having the same issue as everyone else, just got a paranormal dan 200c and describe won't work. here's my log from terminal. 

 

 

[McGee]

Well Escribe is a 32 Bit architecture App which Apple is in the process of getting rid off. In future only 64 Bit apps will be supported. 

Edited October 5, 2018 by McGee

[Pelle]

Yes, I know... the big question is WHEN will Evolve launch a new running Escribe Software (64bit) for MacOS Mojave? Hopefully soon, but unfortunately there is no light at the end of the tunnel so far. 

[MyManM]

Replying here as well to voice the need for an Updated eScribe to work on Mojave

[James]

I've posted an early EScribe Suite providing Mojave compatibility.

It also makes the software 64-bit on MacOS to avoid future compatibility issues. Let me know if you run into any bugs with it.

Thanks!

James

 

[dogcow]

So far so good, seems to be working fine on Mojave for both my DNA 250c and DNA Go devices.

Thanks James.

[TroyACast]

Thank you for making this happen. 

[Pelle]

Awsome,

It works, super great.

Thanks James
