Apple end of Rosetta support and impact on the ClickShare Desktop App

Article number: [15958]

Applicable to

Overview

Apple has announced changes to the availability of Rosetta 2, the translation technology that enables Intel-Based applications to run on Apple Silicon (M-series) Macs.
💡M-series: M1, M2, M3, M4, and later.

According to Apple's current announcements, macOS 27 (Golden Gate) will not be available for Intel-Based Macs and will be the final macOS version release with full Rosetta 2 support. Beginning with macOS 28, Rosetta 2 will no longer be available for general use, meaning Intel-based applications will no longer run on Apple Silicon (M-series) Macs upgrade to this version.

For Apple's official announcement, refer to:

🔗Apple silicon - About the Rosetta translation environment


ClickShare Desktop App: Current status and implications

The currently available ClickShare Desktop App is an Intel (x86_64) application. [See KB3435].

Intel-Based Macs

  • You can continue to run the ClickShare Desktop App natively.
  • Rosetta 2 is not required.

Apple silicon (M-series) Mac:

If you are using ClickShare on an Apple Silicon (M-series) Mac:

  • You can continue using the ClickShare Desktop App and ClickShare Button on currently supported macOS release.
  • Rosetta 2 is required for the ClickShare Desktop App to run until a compatible ClickShare App is available that runs natively on the M series.

Note: For ClickShare installation, Rosetta setup guidance, and usage instructions on Apple Silicon Macs, see KB15605.

What Barco is doing

To address this change, a native ClickShare Desktop App for Apple Silicon (M-series) Macs is currently under development. This version will run natively on Apple Silicon Macs and will not require Rosetta 2, ensuring full compatibility ahead of the official release of macOS 27.

Support Notice

Because this information is based on pre‑release beta versions of macOS, it is not yet within service scope, Barco Support cannot officially troubleshoot issues exclusively related to future Rosetta deprecation scenarios until Apple publishes final production releases.
