Hello Again :)

How do you do?
Some inputs for you that can eventually help:

The versions I am using on my "old" mac running ElCapitan:
KStars v3.0.0, Build 2018-12-21T06:07:37z
KD+ FW 5.52.0
Q+ 5.11.3 (built agains 5.11.2)
Cocoa windowing sys

And QT player v19.4 (855)

Hope this helps.
Any findings on your side?
Regards, Jean-Paul

Hello rlancaste

thank you for your response, I think I tried on this forum itself however do not recall exactly how as it was 3 to 4 weeks ago. I glad you found my message and thank you for response.

So I understand this is due to QT, that is unfortunate as, like you, my ancient macbook from 2008 is still very fast with good SSD and lot of RAM. This has been my perfect companion for astrophotos for long now, and most of it, I do not care to expose it to long cold night :) was build like a rock at that time!

Yes if you find ways it would excellent, I have read you have introduced new features in the latest release I will need in future, like the support of new focuser from Celestron for instance,

Your Kstars/Ekos is as per me by far the best software available on mac os!

Hello everyone
are you capable of running the latest Kstars/Ekos on your mac using Mac OS X El Capitan?
I have a an excellent old mac, with SSD, lot of RAM, dedicated to Astrophotos. Since the latest release of Kstars/Ekos, it does not support anymore the 10.11 OS.
I tried to contact the developers with no success. Is there a way to recompile it for any OS older than the 10.12?

Many thanks
