TeamViewer 11 is working and so is LittleSnitch as a Nightly Build (https://obdev.at/products/littlesnitch/download-nightly.html) has become available

How did you manage to install wow? I cant launch battle.net or any game install app with an error:
"The application “Battle.net-Setup.app” can’t be opened."

It was already installed when I upgraded my MBP to Catalina

Epson Perfection V39 Scanner

I have not tried this myself, but Epson support replied that the current drivers are 32 bit. They did not give an ETA on 64 bit support.

My up to date Steam installation didn't work, but uninstalling and downloading a fresh copy from Steam did - strange.

Auto updates in Steam only updates the client, not the launcher app.

Steam better update its launcher as it’s still 32 bit but the app itself is 64 bit

It has been for a long time. You need to either copy the Contents from Application Support/Steam.app into the app yourself or just download a fresh copy from the website.

I tried downloading it but it still said 32 bit but I'll try again and see how I go.
EDIT: I got home and dragged the launcher to the trash and re-downloaded it and now it shows it as 64 bit

Does anyone know if Big Fish games work ? The Games Manager app is suppose to be 64bit but unsure whether it will work and whether the games work or not.

Does someone use Citrix Workspace? Does it work for you? When I want to login, there is this error message about "DigiCert Global Root CA". This happens after installing macOS 10.15

Getting a similar error:

You have not chosen to trust "Entrust Root Certification Authority", the issuer of the server's security certificate.

Did you find a fix to it?

Is anyone having an issue with iWork? can't get the apps to stay open. they just crash immediately upon opening.

 

[ozhero]

I had the problem with Ulysses taking a long time to load but in my case it never loaded and I had to use "force quit" each time.

Deleted it from Applications and installed it again from the App Store and it worked perfectly within seconds.

Can confirm it's all working as expected on my testing so far.

I can confirm Pages, Numbers and Keynote are working perfectly on my end.

3) Dreamweaver CS 6 – 32 bit
5) InDesign CS 6 - 32 bit
6) Fireworks CS 6 - 32 bit

These are all 32-bit and no 32-bit application will work on macOS 10.15.

2) Illustrator CS 6 – 64 bit

The application is 64-bit but it has 32-bit dependencies so it will not run on macOS 10.15.

1) Photoshop CS 6 – 64 bit
4) Acrobat X Pro - 64 bit

These may well run on macOS 10.15 but you cannot (re)install, activate/deactivate or update CS6. The Adobe CS6 installer and management utility applications are 32-bit and do not work. Also, running Acrobat X Pro is a HUGE security risk. So, going forward, Photoshop and Acrobat are, as good as useless. Possible solutions include virtualising an older macOS and run CS6 within the virtual machine and also running a combination of Acrobat Pro X and Acrobat Reader.

I would post links to help (including a step-by-step set of instructions for setting up CS6 within a virtual machine on macOS) but I'm not allowed to "self-promote" in the forum, sorry.

Illustrator CS 6 – 64 bit

Illustrator CS 6 does not work. The application is 64-bit but it has 32-bit dependencies so it will not run on macOS 10.15.

InDesign CS 6 - 32 bit

InDesign CS 6 is not 64-bit (on Macintosh). As it's 32-bit, no 32-bit application will work on macOS 10.15.

You can test what applications will or won't work in macOS 10.15 right now using macOS 10.13.4/5/6 or 10.14.x:

• Restart your Mac and hold down Command-R to boot into Recovery Mode
• Launch Terminal
• Enter this command: nvram boot-args="-no32exec"
• Restart your Mac
• Test your applications

To put your Mac back to 32/64-bit mode change step 3 to nvram boot-args=""

Thanks for suggesting the boot arg. I tried it on Mojave, rebooted and confirmed that all 32-bit apps will not launch. Luckily, Photoshop CS6 appears to still be functional.

Does Parallels Desktop 12 work? It worked when I first installed it on Sierra in 2016; still works with Mojave. Hoping it hasn't broken in Catalina.

Not an app, but is anyone able to confirm whether or not Tampermonkey and Reddit Enhancement Suite extensions in Safari are still working?

No Safari can't install extensions anymore the old way, only through the App Store, neither are in that. And the Developer Extension builder is gone too (was a way to side-load them)
It really sucks :/ but lets hope someone fill the huge void this created.

Thats too bad, thanks for confirming though...may just have to move over to Firefox, not sure if I can live without these two extensions particularly RES.

Just wanted to report that Box Drive does not work on Catalina, the app reports that it’s not compatible and quits

I have the same problem with Instapaper. Going back to the bookmarklet feels so ancient.

 

[Dubadai]

I have issues reading data from GoPro, its like Catalina doesn't like that its from another device?

Issues in both Lightroom and GoPro's Quick app. Removing the SD-card and importing straight form that works

Same here. Latest Citrix Workspace App installed and no matter what Citrix Storefront I use for work, I get this error.

 

[BaggieBoy]

AdGuard was in the not working list, however I have version 2.0.4.552 installed and it appears to working fine.

Steam and Origin not opening for me.

Also cant even open the Battlenet installer to install

For Steam go into your applications folder on Finder and move the launcher into the trash. Then go onto Steam and re-download load the launcher.

 

[eTron]

Origin not working which means none of the games either.

EDIT: Didn't see the posts right above mine.

 

[ChaosAngel]

Has anyone been able to test Google Drive?
