iScreensaver, macOS Big Sur 11.5 and Montery 12.0 Compatibility Issues

We have identified some issues that arise which can prevent screensavers and the editor software (Designer) from working if a user upgrades to macOS Big Sur 11.5 or the beta version of Monterey (12.0).

We have found the problem and are working on a new version of iScreensaver Designer which will remedy these problems.

This will require that you re-build and re-distribute your screensavers.

We will have another annoucement soon.

We are pleased to announce version 6.7 is ready, which includes fixes for the new bugs introduced in macOS 11 Big Sur and macOS 12 Monterey.

Please note that macOS Monterey has a number of issues, including video playback problems, where movies may get stuck on a certain frame, or play back invisibly. We have identified these as bugs in macOS / WebKit and are hopeful that Apple will fix them before official release.

In the mean time, we have a new version, 6.8.1 which adds fixes and/or improvements for some of these issues on macOS Monterey.
