Has anyone tested Adobe Captivate on macOS Ventura

It's that time of year again where we have a new macOS - and where there has been no word from Adobe whether Captivate will work on it or not. Now, I won't bring up all the reasons why you shouldnt upgrade right now, why the Captivate team seem to not realise a new OS is coming, or why they know but ignore it (even though they would have access to developer previews months in advance). Those discussions have been had with the last three major OS updates.

 

Instead - if you have decided to give it a try anyway, or installed the new OS without realising the history - I'd like to hear if it is working for you!

 

And for anyone wondering - generally a version of Captivate cerrtified for the new OS will not be released until December or January (or later) based on previous years.

Update

I decided to install MacOS Ventura, as I now use parallels desktop, so I have a backup if the mac version of Captivate does not work.

 

I'm happy to report that Captivate is running fine on MacOS Ventura - no issues whatsoever.

I am running Captivate on Ventura and I cannot record video or open any blank new projects.
Since I just migrated over from Windows I don't know if it worked on mac OS before Ventura, but I am definitely having problems.

Support person hung up on me, but I think it was an accident as he disconnected mid-sentence.
I can't get him back on the line. 😕

I ended up rolling back to Monterey OS.
And I had the same issues!!  Call Adobe tech support, they were very good.
They gave me a new installer package-- which also did not fix the issue!!  Then they gave me a different version of Adobe AFL Framework and that fied all the issues.

 

This is something Adobe is aware of but it took a few calls to sort it out.
And they will only help you if you are on Monterey. (And they have to help you since Monterey is supported.)

I suspect- but cennot verify- that the new files they gave me would also resolve the issue on Ventura.

In my case it was the Adobe AFL framework file and this was not something I could have fixed on my own.
