Chances are that you can update your Mac to at least Monterey by the unofficial method,

Hey @GEOFFREY_JOHNSON,

Thanks for writing in! It does look like you’ll need to update your macOS to Monterey (12).

I hope what @Suedkiez has shared above may be helpful! :crossed_fingers:

Hi @GEOFFREY_JOHNSON,

Please note that the Roon release implementing these minimum requirement changes has been rescheduled to next week (April 27).

As others have mentioned, Roon will require MacOS 12 Monterey at a minimum moving forward.

Hi @GEOFFREY_JOHNSON,

This thread will shortly auto-close, but these changes will take effect after the weekend. Please reach out if we can answer any questions.

We wanted to ping this thread once more to let you know there is a temporary legacy installer available for users who are still using Catalina.

This version will not receive future updates or security fixes, and may become incompatible with current Roon Remote or ARC versions over time. You can find the installer here.
