Version: 2.0
I use it for Aperture. I am so pleased you've got it working again.
BUT it won't work with RAW images. I have Olympus RAW .ORF pictures. The image shows for just 1/2 second then changes to "unsupported image format".
Reprocessing the photos several times does not fix this. Only occurs with RAW images.
I'm using Ventura 13.5.1 and Retroactive 2.0.
jpegs show up just fine, but most of my pics are RAW.

Any plans for Retroactive to allow CS6 to run? Still plenty of people miffed about being forced off of that software and the issues running it in virtualization without graphics acceleration…

i am running ventura (13.4.1) on a macbook pro (2019) but after installing retroactive 2 i get a message saying the OS is too new. will there be an update? i cannot get used to the new MUSIC app and would like to stay with itunes. i have a REALLY old imac and itunes runs flawlessly on that device.

This app should work on any old 3rd party Software, not only Apple Software.
