DropDMG has been updated to version 3.6.9. This is a free update for those who have purchased DropDMG 3.x. Normally, DropDMG will automatically offer to update you to the new version. There are also instructions for updating on this page. DropDMG 3.6.9 is compatible with macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) through macOS 15 (Sequoia) and is recommended for all customers using those versions of macOS. Older versions are also available for macOS 10.12 (Sierra) and earlier.
The changes in this version are:
- Fixed a bug where converting a disk image would in some cases fail with an incorrect error about the destination folder being invalid.
- Worked around a bug in macOS 15 where sometimes the system help viewer would not open the right help page. DropDMG will instead open help files in the user’s Web browser.
- Tried to work around a macOS bug that could cause it to incorrectly report the DropDMG application file as damaged.
- Made some changes to prevent DropDMG from triggering local network privacy prompts.
- Improved the following sections of the manual:
- When you click an esoteric preferences link to enable or disable debug logging, the change now takes effect immediately, without having to restart DropDMG.
- The diagnostic report now includes information about the app’s logs, the crash logs folder, and components that could cause AppleScript errors.
- Diagnostic report files are much smaller, as they no longer include excerpts from the verbose system console log, only from DropDMG’s own log files.
- Removed various code that is no longer used.
