Client for older Macs?

Hi,

Wanting to upgrade to 2021.1 on my server, I wonder if the 'client-only' Indigo will work on macOS versions older than 10.12? I have several Macs running the client now on 10.11.6, which can't be upgraded on those Macs.
Is there a better solution than to revert to the webinterface? Or can I use 7.4/7.5 client for 2021.1?

Thanks for any advice.

Best regards, Gerrit Jan

The Indigo 2021.1 client also requires macOS 10.12+ and you have to run the same version client as server, so the only option would be to use some type of Screen Sharing. Apple's built-in Screen Sharing app works pretty well – I use it frequently to control my headless Mac mini server that control our house.

Hi Matt,

Thanks, I was afraid that this was going to be answer. Defeats the elegance of a client-server app, one of the features I chose Indigo for, way, way back...;-)
Thanks anyway, I'll get by, or buy new stuff...:-)

Kind regards, Gerrit Jan
