  1. Jan 02, 2020  I am trying to obtain 64-bit software for a ScanSnap ix500. 'ScanSnap Home' is supposed to be the 64-bit replacement program for older 32-bit software, but the Fujitsu download page does not show the program (or any other downloads compatible with Mac OS Catalina).
  2. Source: StatCounter Global Stats - macOS Version Market Share It may be that many Mac users are using older Macs that can't run Mojave. There were a number of Macs from around 2009 and 2010 that.

This year's macOS Mojave beta, and subsequent update, won't run and can't be installed on any Mac older than about 2012 — or so Apple thinks.

This is a series of tips that cover Mac OS X client edition. Server forums cover Mac OS X server on the community.

Here is the series of tips for related Macs. 10.6,10.7, 10.8, 10.9, 10.10,10.11,

10.12 ,10.13, 10.14 Mojave, 10.15 Catalina.


See special note about resetting the SMC during updates and upgrades, later in the tip.


is an article I wrote that everyone updating their Mac should read. No update should be ventured into with operating systems or software without first ensuring your data is backed up in two separate places. Slowing down of your Mac should not lead you to assume an update will fix everything. First isolate why your Mac is slowing down or crashing before installing anything new.


Apple released for 10.14.6 users, 2020-003 Mojave security update. If running an earlier version of 10.14, run the 10.14.6 Combo update first.

Apple recommends you have these Macs according to: https://support.apple.com/kb/SP777?locale=en_US


  • MacBook (Early 2015 or newer) [model identifier 8,1 or later]
  • MacBook Air (Mid 2012 or newer) [model identifier 5,1 or later]
  • MacBook Pro (Mid 2012 or newer) [model identifier 9,1 or later]
  • Mac mini (Late 2012 or newer) [model identifier 6,1 or later]
  • iMac (Late 2012 or newer) [model identifier 12,1 or later]
  • Mac Pro (Late 2013; Mid 2010 and Mid 2012 models with recommended Metal-capable graphics cards) [model identifier 5,1 or later]


bracketed items in quotes were added for additional identification purposes. Your Apple menu -> About This Mac -> System Report or System Profiler gives you the model identifier.


All of the Macs that are older than 10.11, need to be updated to 10.11 first before installing Mojave.

The oldest MacBook Air, Mac mini, and iMac which can upgrade to Mojave shipped with 10.8, Mountain Lion.

The oldest Mac Pro on the list above with the compatible graphics cards, had 10.6 originally installed, and is the only Mac that shipped with 10.6 that can install Mojave. Before upgrading to 10.7 or later, read this tip as Apple has not reintroduced a series of software that made older Mac compatible software compatible with Intel Macs since 10.6.8's release.


Apple released Mojave on September 24, 2018. Reports from:


earlier than that date were made with pre-release Mojave versions and can not be relied upon.


September 30, 2018 driver additions from third party update pages:

HP, and Samsung (HP has become the download site for at least some Mojave Samsung printers, if you have Samsung see if any are Catalina compatible)

Silverfast.


10.14.3 was released January 22, 2019. Note, some users are reporting 10.14.3 will not successfully apply as an update without an SMC reset as described how to do in this link: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295

Frequently both updates and upgrades will require multiple reboots to successfully apply. Do NOT become impatient if you find the screen go blank during the update or upgrade process. If you press the power button to shut it down while it is rebooting for the update or upgrade, it may quit the process, and leave you stuck.


Use the macOS Mojave forum for operating system specific questions of other end users such as yourself.

Note: https://support.apple.com/guide/disk-utility/partition-a-physical-disk-dskutl14027/mac

are directions for creating a separate partition that will allow you to dual boot into an older operating system

if you find something not compatible with the current. Once you install the older operating system, you can use the Startup manager to dual boot to the older system.


You can't install Mojave from the Finder, unless you are running 10.13.6 or earlier.

Unsupported Macs may have Mojave installed with a patch from http://dosdude1.com/mojave/

This is at your own risk. Follow the directions given by the patch author.

Causes and solutions for when a wireless access point cannot be set to the ScanSnap during the ScanSnap Cloud application setup are explained below.
Cause
  • The setting value for the network name (SSID), security type (authentication method), or security key is incorrect.

  • The communication authorization settings are configured on the wireless access point.

  • IEEE 802.1X authentication is used.

    The setting of the certificate for the ScanSnap may be needed.

  • A proxy server is used for the Internet connection.

Solution
  • When any one of the setting values is incorrect

    Match the setting values with the settings for the wireless access point. If you do not know the network name (SSID) or security key, refer to the manuals of your wireless access point, or contact the manufacturer.

  • When the communication authorization settings are configured on the wireless access point

    Perform one of the following depending on the setting:

    • When the communication between wireless devices is disabled (by using a function such as the privacy separator function or the port separator function)

      Enable the communication between wireless devices.

    • When the SSID broadcast, such as ANY connection, is disabled

      Enable the SSID broadcast on the wireless access point. Or, configure the wireless settings manually.

    • When the protocol filter function is configured

      Configure the protocol on the wireless access point.

    • When the stealth function is configured

      Disable the stealth function, and then configure the wireless settings again using the WPS function. Or, configure the wireless settings manually.

    • When MAC address filtering is configured

      Set the MAC address for the ScanSnap on the wireless access point, and then configure the wireless settings again.

    In addition, the set channel may be used with another wireless access point.

    In this case, change the value of the wireless channel on the wireless access point.

    For details about the settings of the wireless access point, refer to your wireless access point manual.

  • When IEEE 802.1X authorization is used

    If the setting of the certificate for the ScanSnap is needed, the ScanSnap Wireless Setup Tool that is bundled with ScanSnap Manager is required.

    Start the ScanSnap Wireless Setup Tool and configure the wireless settings by following the Wireless Network Setup Wizard. For details, refer to 'Connecting the ScanSnap and a Computer or Mobile Device with the Specified Wireless LAN' in the ScanSnap Wireless Setup Tool Help. After configuring the settings, continue the setup in the ScanSnap Cloud application.

    For details about how to start the ScanSnap Wireless Setup Tool, refer to Unsure How to Start the ScanSnap Wireless Setup Tool..

    In addition, contact your network administrator to check the following:

    • Whether the wireless settings are the same as the settings on the authentication server

    • Whether the network environment for the authentication server is normal

    • Whether the authentication server and the wireless access point are connected correctly

    • Whether the certificate is valid

      Example:

      Whether the certificate has not been revoked, whether it has not been expired, or whether the CN (CommonName) for the certificate is shorter than 64 bytes if the authentication method is 'EAP-TLS'

  • When a proxy server is used for the Internet connection

    Configure the settings of the proxy server in the setup procedure.
