I am successfully running Scilab 6.1 on Mac Os Catalina. According to the excellent webpage
https://www.utc.fr/~mottelet/scilab_for_macOS.html
6.1.1 runs on Mac OS Big Sur
However, I can find no mentions on that page (or scouring the internet) whether 6.1.1 runs on Mac OS Monterey. Before upgrading from Catalina, I need to know this.
Can anyone confirm successful operation of 6.1.1 on Monterey?
thank you
I was reported that the macOS M1 build works on Monterey. Likely, the Intel build should also work, even if you may have a warning at launch (concerning the OS version).

Currently I am using Xcode 10.1 on macOS High Sierra 10.13.6, on a Early 2011 MacBook Pro with 4GB RAM.
Problem is that I am unable to upgrade to macOS Catalina. Is it possible to install Xcode 11.3 in the macOS High Sierra? Or is there any other safe solution for installation of macOS Catalina in my unsupported Early 2011 MacBook Pro and then install Xcode 11.3?
Please suggest a well tested and safe solution.
Your model of Mac, i.e. Early 2011 MacBook Pro can't be upgraded past macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 using any official means, i.e. macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 is the highest supported macOS release for your model of Mac.

The last release of Xcode supported on macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 is Xcode 10.1.
Source: Xcode - Wikipedia
So, officially speaking, your model of Mac cannot run macOS Catalina and by extension Xcode 11.x.
There is no officially supported solution.
Xcode 11.3 is supported on macOS Mojave 10.14.4 or later. So, your best recourse would be to be get a Mac that can run the said release of macOS.
I am taking a course on programming with flutter, and it needs Xcode 9 or higher. My mac is currently running 10.11.6 and it can't update any more. I was wondering if there was any way to get Xcode 9 on my mac?
Xcode9 needs OS X 10.12.6 or higher.
The latest Xcode you can install on OS X 10.11.6 is Xcode8 (version 8.2.1).
Here you can check which minimal OS version is required by which version of Xcode:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode#Version_comparison_table
Also for downloading any older version of Xcode you need a developer account (free account is enough) and you can download from here:
https://developer.apple.com/download/more/
Unfortunately I don't see older than Xcode9 there but I found Xcode 8.2.1 here
Xcode is only needed to run your Flutter apps on iOS devices and simulators. But to develop Flutter apps, you use another IDE your Mac can probably run: Android Studio, Visual Studio Code or Intellij IDEA.
You can still test your app using an Android emulator or device.
If you do need to upgrade, you can download a Sierra, High Sierra or Mojave patcher from dosdude1's website, and install a later version of macOS on your unsupported Mac (if your mac is in the list of supported devices, and I haven't tested it, so do it at your own risk).
I seem to have gotten stuck in MacOS / Xcode purgatory.
I'm on OS Sierra/10.12.6.
When I try to update, I get a warning, that there's an issue with upgrading vs DisplayLink and so it cannot be done.
That directly conflicts with Xcode which (as of now, on App Store) only works on 10.13.2 or later.
I cannot find a place to download an earlier version of Xcode.
I cannot upgrade to High Sierra.
How can I get this happening?
You can get it here at this URL: https://developer.apple.com/download/more/ to download a version of Xcode you want. Specifically, get 9.2. This is the recent version that works with mac OS Sierra.
Edit: Xcode 9.2.1 is no longer an available version. 9.2 works.
Xcode 9.2 works well for Mac OS Sierra (10.12.6). I installed it today (3rd Feb 2020).
For OS Sierra/10.12.6 you need Xcode-8.3 from below link
https://download.developer.apple.com/Developer_Tools/Xcode_8.3/Xcode_8.3.xip
The Xcode-9* versions are not compatible.
Xcode 9.2 is working fine on High Sierra. I have downloaded and installed it today.
I installed a Mac 10.6.8 on VMWare sometime ago just to get a feel of OSX, I want to know what is the best way to upgrade my OSX 10.6.8 to upgrade to the latest version on VMWare
I am using VMware Work Station on Windows 7. The VMWare version is 10.0.1. Please help
I'm going to assume you mean, how to upgrade to the latest version of OS X, AKA "Yosemite" or OS X 10.10, right? You need to do this:
First, find out if your VMWare instance can run OS X Yosemite.
Back up your current installation.
Get OS X Yosemite from the Mac App
Store.
Double-click Install OS X Yosemite to begin installation.
A user has a mini on OS X 10.5.8 and an iMac on 10.6.8. My app crashes immediately on launch with a SIGSEGV error. In trying to find the crash cause, I found one post saying that XCode 4.6 can't compile for those OSs.
What's the oldest OS I can support?
Is there a build setting I can use, or must I try to load an earlier version of Xcode? This is my first Mac app, so I'm struggling still.
