A. Smith Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I searched and surprisingly didn't see anything. Is everything good to go with MacOS High Sierra and Accordance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Mansfield Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 As far as I know. I've been running High Sierra for a couple of months without any incident attributed to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I haven't tested it enough since I upgraded 2 hours before, but so far the first time without hassle from the side of Accordance. Greetings Fabian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Allison Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Accordance works great on High Sierra. I've been using it every day since the Developer Preview was first released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortenjensen Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Just out of curiosity: Do you notice any speed improvement - or any other good thing - that should make one upgrade? I am running on a 2012-mbp with an after-installed SSD. Not the fastest system in the world. I have just this week updated to Sierra, since I try to hold back until Apple has fixed the first sway of bugs in their non-beta versions (one time I lost the ability to connect properly to the WIFI-signal due to a bug that took the, half-a-year to fix after the initial release ...).

A. Smith Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 Sweet. I'll go upgrade now, then. Thanks, everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Allison Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) It feels faster than Sierra, but I'm running it on a very fast 15" MacBook Pro. It seems to be a lot like the upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard. Not a lot of obvious new features, but some important under-the-hood improvements. It uses a new file system and is completely 64-bit. Little things like using Get Info to find the size of a folder now happens instantly.

Andrew G Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 yes i agree that accordance seems faster on high sierra. my workspaces are loading faster than it did before, which is a pleasant surprise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Yes Accordance is faster with High Sierra. Greetings Fabian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortenjensen Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Might give it a go, then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Hi, Based on your endorsements, I just upgraded. Accordance along everything else I use with it seems faster - Mellel, Word, Scrivener, PDF Expert, BW, and L. I'm very impressed and happy with OSX since I switched entirely from Windows a year ago. Thanks. Michel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A. Smith Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 I'm finding it faster as well. Although initially my workspace wouldn't open. Restarted the app (crashed twice) and it now it's working without hiccup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Anyone tried this on a 2009 iMac ? I actually didn't think that was supported but apparently it is. Thx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Gowing Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I lost all my highlights somehow. Has anyone else had this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 The Finder in High Sierra appears subjectively faster and more responsive, but I also freed up lots of space from my HD, as it was down to 150GB and I try to keep a minimum of 10% free (i.e 300GB). Now with over 650GB of free space it seems really zippy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortenjensen Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Jordan, I believe that highlights are stored in Documents/Accordance Files/Highlights/My Highlights.hlt. Has this file been transferred? Or do you have a backup of it somehow? I cannot see how High Sierra can cause this not to work. Perhaps it is simply missing somehow.

R. Mansfield Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I lost all my highlights somehow. Has anyone else had this problem? Jordan, I wonder if perhaps somehow Accordance got switched to a different highlights file. You can look at the menu in the highlights window to determine which highlights file you're using.

mortenjensen Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 In regards to snappiness and speed on high sierra, I can confirm what others have stated above: Accordance does indeed feel snappier. On my 2011 MBP (ssd) as well as on my 2013 air (1.7 i7), I have noticed som sluggines once several tabs, panes and workspaces are opened at the same time. This has gotten better. Just great. Btw, speaking of this, what is reasonable to expect here? If I only have one tab open, acc. immediately responses, when I call up a text. If I open a couple of additional tabs with ties, a lag on half a second or so is experienced. Is this what to expect on my systems? What are your experiences here?

tkm Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Is anyone else having "full screen" trouble since upgrading to High Sierra? I was accustomed to using Accordance in "full screen" mode, closing the application and re-opening it in that same view. Mac geniusly allowed me to open Accordance on startup in full screen view. Now I can't do that. Accordance won't launch in full screen. Any tips or insights? Thanks. -tkm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 There is a little bit of discussion here about some full-screen quirks as well: https://www.accordancebible.com/forums/topic/22585-full-screen-mode-startup-and-high-sierra/ That said, most of my issues occurred before High Sierra I believe (although opening in full screen in a basic use case / no tabs might have worked fine in Sierra - can't recall).

c. stirling bartholomew Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) Installed High Sierra several weeks ago on a 27 inch IMac 2011 i5 8gig and MacBook pro early 2015. I'm running Accordance 9.6 with ancient Gramcord modules. I'm not having any trouble with Accordance. I'm not a power user. I typically access less than 5% of the feature set. Almost exclusively Greek & Hebrew lexical and syntax searching. Edited January 16, 2018 by c. stirling bartholomew 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
