I’ve been utilizing Numbers which I purchased for 14 years with no drawback.
A number of weeks in the past I upgraded my MacBook Professional to Large Sur ( which is the final model of
macOS it is going to assist ).
I nonetheless have Numbers on my disk:
But it surely can’t run natively on Large Sur since this can be a 32 bit code.
And rightfully, the Finder recommend me to obtain the newest model of
Numbers from App Retailer
.
Really useful methodology: from my utility
I adopted this clear recommendation which appeared the traditional manner: I fired App Retailer
and uncover that it discover Numbers inside my account,
and even see it as match to be opened proper now.
I then tried to comply with the evident simple path proven by App Retailer
:
click on on OPEN
. Simply to find the error message which
introduced me inside App Retailer
:
So App Retailer
deliver me the identical suggestion to obtain the newest model of
Numbers from App Retailer
.
This appears to be like as a excessive degree of going spherical in circles in the way in which to handle a software program
obtain or did I miss utterly a basic element?
I totally learn the Apple web page of documentation about discovering the correct model
of a software program for my working model of macOS and it describe the method I
adopted.
One other methodology: search it
To seek out an emergency exit, I looked for Numbers from the App Retailer
search
operate, and I get it:
Sadly, that is additionally a useless finish, as App retailer
current me a model which is
not match for the model of macOS I’m working and a element App Retailer
can simply
get.
App Retailer sells 2 useless ends?
Why is App Retailer
presenting an previous model which it is aware of can’t run on my model
of macOS and subsequent current too younger a model which additionally can’t run
on my model of macOS?
I believed App Retailer
was the official strategy to get the correct Apple software program for my
configuration. However I get 2 useless ends. No less than I’ve the liberty to selected between
2 paths. However I deeply really feel as trapped in a nightmare jail.
The place is an accurate documentation about a simple methodology to improve an Apple
utility to run on the macOS model a consumer is runnning?
I do not perceive how it may be such a nightmare when I’ve
been capable of improve greater than 300 MacPorts purposes
with out an error after my Large Sur improve.
