ARCHICAD Compatibility with Yosemite (OS X 10.10) Download

If you're looking to download ARCHICAD and run it on your Mac with Yosemite (OS X 10.10), you'll want to know about the compatibility issues first. Unfortunately, not all versions of ARCHICAD are compatible with this operating system.

Incompatible Versions

ARCHICAD 22 is unable to run on OS X 10.10 due to technical limitations. Additionally, ARCHICAD 12 and older versions cannot be installed or run on this operating system either. As a result, GRAPHISOFT does not provide technical support for operating system-specific problems.

Not Supported Versions

On the other hand, ARCHICAD 13-16 versions can run on Yosemite, although they were designed to work well with older versions of the operating system. The compatibility update for ARCHICAD 18 has been released, and BIMx desktop users should note that BIMx cannot be run until this update is installed.

ARCHICAD Versions Tested

Based on GRAPHISOFT's tests, ARCHICAD 17 and 18 generally work well on OS X 10.10 Yosemite with some minor issues. GRAPHISOFT is maintaining compatibility for these versions and connected products (BIMcloud, BIMx, BIM Server, BIM Server Manager) on this operating system.
