Mac OS Catalina Mavis Beacon download from Broderbund.com

I am unable to install this Mavis Beacon as it needs 32 bit and I have a 64 bit. I thought it stated that it was compatible with 64 bit. I paid twice for this program and it doesn't work on my computer.

The Mac App Store gives conflicting information. A small easy to miss gray bar near the top state "The developer of this app needs to update it to work with your version of macOS" but the Compatibility section states "Works on this MacBook Pro" (which is running Catalina).


It won't work and you may want to mention the above if you apply for a refund: Request a refund for apps or content that you bought from Apple - Apple Support

Catalina isn't compatible with 32 bit apps. They will not run. If you want to know which of your current apps will and will not work with Catalina download and run the free GO64 app.


Went to the web site and found this disclaimer:


*Currently, this product is not compatible with Catalina


And in the App Store there's this disclaimer:



So follow FoxFirth's recommendations and see if you can get a refund.
