Apple quietly disables feature and forces macOS upgrade

6 pointsby gerdembover 4 years ago
I recently noticed that I can no longer collaborate on Numbers.app spreadsheets. This includes old spreadsheets that were already shared as well as collaborating on any new spreadsheets. Numbers helpfully says &quot;It&#x27;s time to update!&quot; and sends me to the AppStore, but the new version of Numbers requires macOS 10.15 and I cannot upgrade past Mojave (10.14) as I need to keep running some old 32-bit applications.<p>I don&#x27;t think it&#x27;s reasonable to require an OS upgrade to continue using an application feature that was working fine before and I think it&#x27;s completely unacceptable do so with NO WARNING at all. It&#x27;s not like I&#x27;m even running some super old software, Mojave was released just two years ago and Apple is already disabling features and forcing upgrades?!<p>No wonder businesses are reluctant to use Apple office software. Not impressed...<p>&#x2F;rant over

I’m pretty sure this is because whoever “owns” the shared document has upgraded and the new features are not supported in older versions of the app.
