Minimum version for Image Occlusion on older macOS?

Hello,

I have a specific problem. First, I have the Ankimobile version 25.09 on my iPhone and Anki ⁨2.1.49 on my computer.

I created image occlusion cards on my phone. However when I go to view them, only the image is shown, and not the occlusion elements. I get this specific error message:

*Error loading image occlusion. Is your Anki version up to date?

TypeError: Cannot read property ‘setup’ of undefined*

Also, I am not sure what the most recent version of Anki is that is compatible with my very old computer and MacOS. On the older versions archive, I could not find information about which OS each older version of Anki is compatible with.

I appreciate any help!

IO wasn’t added as a built-in feature until 23.10, so you’ll need at least that to study IO notes/cards on desktop.

Here’s the macOS compatibility information I’ve pieced together so far (in the process of updating the docs: MacOS version requirements · Issue #442 · ankitects/anki-manual · GitHub . I can’t tell you which version to use, because you didn’t say what version of macOS you have or whether it is Intel or Silicon.

Hello,

I have 11.7.10 Intel MacOS.

When I create the IO cards on my computer, I am able to see them on my iPhone. However when I create them on my phone I cannot see them on my computer. I am sure if I am able to fix this.

Thank you!

You have to update your computer version. Yours is ancient. A quick look in ankis repo led me to this: Release 25.02 · ankitects/anki · GitHub which says:

Intel Mac builds now require macOS 12+.

So, download the version before this one and see if your issue persists.

On your old version of Anki, you must be using the IO Enhanced add-on to do that. Those notes/cards can be created/edited on desktop Anki, and studied in AnkiMobile.

In AnkiMobile, you must be using built-in IO. Those notes/cards can be created/edited in your version of AnkiMobile, but can’t be used at all in your version of desktop Anki.

Ok, do you mean the anki version before the current one? Thanks!

No, before the version in that link. It’s the same information I gave you last week (if you followed my links) – you need something 23.10 or newer, but 24.11 is as far as you can go. I’d recommend the 24.11 Qt5 build. Releases · ankitects/anki · GitHub

Sorry, I didn’t understand at first. But I downloaded version 24.11, the version before 25.02, and the problem is fixed. So thank you!!
