SM and MAC CATALINA 10.15.3

[wwe]

Hi again

I apologize for asking this question again but I just want to be 100% sure if switching now to Mac CATALINA and the new upgrade 10.15.3 will allow me to use SeaMonkey.

I think the other programs I use like FETCH, PHOTOSHOP and a few others are now compatible with 10.15.3 and I know I have to upgrade the FILEMAKER version I have but since I use SM all the time I just want to be as sure as I possibly can that I'll be able to use it if I switch.

Thanks a lot and thanks to everyone here who have helped me.

These are facts:
Seamonkey (on Mac) is 64-bit
Seamonkey is not notarized
This is mild speculation:
Some people use Macs to write software, to doing that they would need to be able to run test builds of software, and it would be inconvenient for them to sign all the test builds.
So, there should be some way, perhaps having to click "yes" each time, to run unsigned, un-notarized software.

Thanks but what exactly does "motorized" mean when it comes to SM!

2.53.1b1 seems to work fine. Tried email a little browsing and youtube. As usual this is not a complete test

Have you tried 10.15.3 yet or is that what you were referring to? Thanks

[frg]

Yes I tested 2.53.1b1 with 10.15.3.

Only death and taxes are 100% sure but it works fine for me.

Hi

Just wanted to let you and everyone know that I did upgrade from MOJAVE to CATALINA 10.15.3 yesterday and did it like you said and everything works great.

SEAMONKEY works just like before which is what I was mainly worried about.

1) First I downloaded 2.53.1b1 as you said.
2) Then I started to upgrade which took quite awhile and actually, just as it looked like it was almost over, I got a message saying something like t didn't go\ through so I called APPLE
3) They had me SHUT DOWN and then start it again in SAFE MOSE (turning the computer on from the back and then holding the SHIFT key down). This took awhile also and I almost gave up but after at least 15 minutes of holding SHIFT down and waiting I was back to my home screen so I started the UPGRADE again
4) Maybe at least an hour later the UPGRADE finished and then I went through the regular steps to complete it

Everything works fine. All the programs I was worried about like FETCH, FILEMAKER PRO 6 ADVANCED, PHOTOSHOP, BBedit worked fine although I did have to upgrade FETCH.

But as mentioned all is well and SM works great.

Thanks for everyone's help on this.
