Error launching Acorn on macOS Tahoe

Hi all,

I’m getting the following error when I try to run Acorn 6 (which has all the features I need) on macOS Tahoe:

“/Applications/Acorn.app” does not support the latest receipt validation requirements. Please contact the developer for support.

Is there any chance of a patch to allow me to keep using it?

Regards

Ben

We aren’t providing any more patches for Acorn 6 (it came out in 2017), and I really, really wish Apple hadn’t broken receipt validation for older apps.

Acorn 6 isn’t 100% compatible with Tahoe, either - but if you want to give it a try I can maybe figure something out. Shoot me an email at support@flyingmeat.com referencing this post, and I can see about making a license for you for the direct version of Acorn 6.
