I know that software gets old and eventually stops working under new OS versions… but neither of these users knew that. Her choices were: Backup her hard disk, then erase it, reinstall El Capitan, and finally, restore her data from the backup, or buy a QuickBooks upgrade she neither wanted nor needed before Sierra.Īnother friend was still using an ancient version of Microsoft Word (Office 2004) when he upgraded to Sierra he faced the same unpleasant choices. For example, I heard from a nice lady who upgraded only to discover that QuickBooks 2012, which her business relies upon, broke under Sierra and was unlikely to ever be updated.
But I know others who weren’t so fortunate. Since I have other scanners, keyboards, and screenshot utilities, my transition from El Capitan to Sierra wasn’t bad.

A fix is promised by mid-October, but the issue affects all Fujitsu ScanSnap scanners, so if you depend upon yours, you might want to wait for the fix before you upgrade. While it still works, Fujitsu has warned that under Sierra, some scanned pages may become blank black & white scans may spontaneously turn into larger color files and pages may be deleted from PDFs during merge operations.
