fullscore Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Hello, I was trying to install on my os x 10.10 machine the workbench. I get this error. it states that it requires 10.5 or above, which my computer meets that requirement. It doesn't make sense. Did anyone else have this challenge and fix it, and if "yes" what steps should I take? I appreciate any help you have to offer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Variax workbench is no longer being updated. you have a JTV right? (based on the forum you're posting too) you would likely want to use Workbench HD (different program) the issue you're having is that the newer operating system is dropping the second digit on the identification... .meaning it sees 10.10 as 10.1 some other guys in the forum had figured out a way to make it work... might have to search though... as i cant recall offhand.

If you're willing to take the chance of messing up your OSX installation, you can use this process to temporarily change your OS version to "10.9" - https://justindaigle.com/blog/2010/02/tutorial-change-mac-os-x-system-version/ Only do that if you understand exactly how to change the steps in the link to what's relevant in your case, have recent system backups, and are comfortable/confident in the Terminal. Put the system version back the way it was afterward to avoid later issues. Also, this might not work at all. Alternatively, and probably safer, if you're particularly adventurous, you could look inside the package contents of the Workbench installer to see if it has a .plist file that specifies the minimum system version, and just change that to 10.1 instead of messing with your system version. Try searching for things like "plist minimum version installer". Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
