I was about to install the next MacOS, but noticed there is no longer compatibilty with 32 bit software. My current system software report shows GPSResults as 32 bit. Does anyone know whether this is correct and/or whether GPSResults will run in MacOS Mojave?

I dont know the answer Ross, but the last time I upgraded the OS, to Sierra 10.12, it broke even some Mac programs (iMovie in particular) so I refuse to upgrade anymore.

Especially when they state explicitly that they abandoning existing program (32bit) support!!!

As I count it, I have 81 applications that are 32 bit and many of them, including GPS-Results, are 32 bit, and programs I use all the time, and have no idea if there are going to be free updates to 64 bit versions available.

Cheers Daffy, I guess I have been lucky, I haven't ever had issues with upgrades and unfortunately my only 32 bit software is GPSResults :-( I am thinking of setting up a Virtual Machine with the Mojave to try it and see. (Plan B is to get a Windoze version of GPSResults and run that in the VM alongside the GW-52 utility I already have to use)

GPS Results is running fine, already on Mojave from first public beta... so no worries
