Anki 2.1.55 Qt5 doesn't work on MacOS High Sierra 10.13.6

[Stahlfisch]

I just updated to the new Anki version. When I want to start it following error-message appears:

It says that at least MacOS 10.13.14 is required, even though 10.13.6 was the latest version of MacOS High Sierra.

Could you please look into this problem?

Thank you in advance!

Sorry, I appear to have accidentally changed 4 to 14. If you ctrl+click on the app and choose “show package contents”, then edit the Contents/Info.plist file in a text editor, you should be able to change the number to 10.13.4. After saving the file, does the app start correctly?

[Stahlfisch]

Your solution didn’t work, unfortunately.

After i changed the number to 10.13.4 following error-message appears after wanting to start the program:

Here’s the code after i clicked on report:

Thanks for trying. I suspect I’ve resolved the issue - please let me know if the next beta release doesn’t address it.

[Stahlfisch]

Thank you very much, I’ll let you know as soon as the next beta release is available.

[Stahlfisch]

I just wanted to inform you that the new beta realease is running fine on MacOS High Sierra 10.13.6

Many thanks again for your efforts!
