![]() You should be grateful DXO is willing to accommodate you with upgrade pricing. Few software vendors provide support of their products into perpetuity, and very few will give an upgrade discount for a software version that old. If by DXO PhotoLab 10 you meant DXO Optics Pro 10, which was released 7 years ago, I believe it is unreasonable to export free support for software that has been replaced by five major release upgrades since you purchased it. What happens when the next Mac OS upgrade gets pushed out–will I have to pay another 90 clams to get DxO operable? I think this is baloney. That’s about what I paid originally for my DxO PhotoLab. I’ve been informed by DxO that I must pay an additional $89 for a “discounted” upgrade in order to get it to work. My DxO PhotoLab 10 no longer works on my Mac, evidently because of the most recent operating system upgrade (Big Sur 11.1). I have spent a few frustrating days corresponding with DxO customer support. I’ve run a few tests with OpticsPro on macOS Mojave and posted results here, cannot find the post though. ![]() Apple has pulled 32bit support starting a few years ago and has kept a level of tolerance for a while, but pulled the plug with macOS Catalina in 2019. Whether it will work with, and with an upgrade, I cannot say, good luck.Īs far as lifespan of an app is concerned: It depends on a) how the app is programmed and on how an OS supports this programming and b) it an be possible to run an old app on a newer OS, even if the app’s supplier does not support the app any more. The Upgrade is priced at $89 but you can possibly get another 15% on that, provided you get that popup. If you run macOS Big Sur because you just bought a new Mac, you’re out of luck and will have to buy an upgrade to the current version of DxO PhotoLab. If your Mac can run an older macOS, you could try to install it on an external drive and install OpticsPro onto that. ![]() If you have updated an existing Mac to macOS Big Sur, there is a chance that you can revert to an older version, but you might not be able to run a new application that requires macOS Big Sur. Hi Bill, macOS Mojave is the latest version of macOS that can run 32 bit applications. ![]()
