Thanks for Retroactive, this is a fantastic tool.

I'm still using several OS X tools from Snow Leopard in Sonoma.

  • TextEdit 1.6 is working with patched info.plist. I prefer the seperate search/replace window.
  • Calculator 10.8 is also working with patched info.plist. I prefer the classic design.
  • iTunes 10.7 is working thanks to Retroactive. It sounds better than Apple Music on my 2015 MacBook Pro.

I would like to get support for Preview 5.0.3 from Snow Leopard. I'm using the tool for more than a decade
and found no suitable replacement. The important feature is the ability to paste-in-place, so the
clipboard content is not centered. Preview 5 requires from Snow Leopard 10.6.8 this file:

/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MeshKit.framework

In Mavericks and Yosemite Preview 5 is working after installing the framework in the correct place,
but crashes when opening a PDF file. I solved the problem by removing the PDF file support entries in the info.plist.

Best Regards.

Retroactive has been discontinued, and does not support macOS Sequoia or later. You should transition from Retroactive to a wide range of supported apps, many of which are built into macOS or free to download. Learn how to transition from Retroactive to supported apps.
