EyeTV 4 on MacOS 26 Tahoe Hello all, I upgraded to MacOS 26 Tahoe and the good news is, that EyeTV 4 is still working :-) Regards. Michael

MacOS 27 ...... ...... just installed the beta and when I started EyeTV app I got the option to install Rosetta, so it works fine. 🤓

EyeTV on Tahoe 26.1 Hello all, seems to be that EyeTV is working on Tahoe 26.1. Have fun. Michael

EyeTV 4 works perfectly on MacOS 15 Sequoia AFTER a complete EyeTV un-install EyeTV 4 works fine on my Intel Mac (Big Sur) but gave numerous crashes on my Apple Silicon Mac (Sequoia). I struggled a lot before finding the work around : EyeTV 4 runs perfectly after a complete un-install on my MacBookPro M4. To be sure to un-install EyeTV 4 completely, I used CleanMyMac. But other utilities should work too. Then I re-installed EyeTV 4 with the latest installer : eyetv 4.0.0 (8532) (64-bit) MAC version. Hope this helps.

My wish ... It would be great if Geniatech would come out with a version 5 that support Apple cpu only. Let it be a payed update, $50 is OK for me. 🙂 Yes I know that's only a dream that will not come through 😵‍💫

EricL Just take a look at the most recent forum updates here as this may be your issue. I had EyeTV running fine on Sequioa and then an update broke it. My issue was to do with gatekeeper/expired certs (as the app is no longer being developed). All down to mac OS becoming more like iOS It can be easily fixed by using Sentinel to self-sign the cert (Google 'sentinel macupdate'), but I wasn't sure what Sentinel did and didn't want to install something else into the mix and so got it sorted by running commands in terminal instead. First you need to remove the quarantine attribute from the downloaded dmg using xattr. The command should be: xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /path/to/your_file.dmg Install the dmg Next bit is for removing old cert from the app and installing a self-signed cert: The below is taken from another forum for OpenSCAD program that was also broke from mac updates. You just need to change the app name to the EyeTV name showing when you use finder to view the application in the applications folder...not at home so can't quote the app name directly {possibly EyeTV.app} The below "removes the signature of the app and then self-signs it then solved the problem for OpenSCAD 2021.01" codesign --remove-signature /Applications/OpenSCAD.app codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/OpenSCAD.app I have a second machine (also on Sequoia) and it never had had EyeTV running on it previously. I installed as above and it runs perfectly I know that my issue was with Sequoina, but I have seen the other guys on here have eyeTV running fine in Tahoe

I had the same question, wanting to keep EyeTV 3 on my Apple Mac M1 (EyeTV 4 editing "capabilities" are a nightmare). So I asked this question to Mistral AI : "Can Parallels run a Mojave virtual machine on Sequoia on an Apple Mac M1?" Mistral short answer is NO, with more details below :

I would like to point out that it is once again, functional without quitting immediately. It still will never have any of the features that they had when it was under Elgato in the version three. You cannot set the priority of choices you want recorded. I have three tuners on one Mac computer and it records multiple shows all the time. I cannot enter my TV Guide information from my HD home run. It's still forcibly quits once in a while when I tried to delete shows that are currently recording that I don't want, because there's no way for me to not record old shows, that I know of. There's a lot of bull crap left that they need to do and they don't support their users and I bet they don't even read the forums here so they could actually learn what people want fixed.

I'm afraid there is no "customer service" or "customer support" from Geniatech any more regarding EyeTV, even though they are still selling the software 🤷‍♂️ That means they will never respond to any cases. Sorry. This forum of the last dozen or so interested users is your only hope.

But for now what I really need is an ATV4 app which connects to EyeTV 3 running on my Mac.
