After Apple presented its new operating system yesterday OS X MavericksMillions of people at this time are already using the same on their brand new Macs. As we know, after a new system is published, the questions of thousands of users begin.
However, none of these questions is aimed at knowing the price or problems with the purchases of the same since Apple has decided that all its loyal users enjoy this version totally free.
However, there are many users who report that it will happen to people who can no longer install this new version and want to continue downloading their applications purchased in the Mac App Store for previous systems and incompatible with the new system. That is, a person who cannot install the new version of OSX Could you have versions of your applications not adapted to Mavericks? Apple's response is reaching the developers and that is that those in Cupertino are already informing the developers that they will apply the same method already applied to iOS 7. All users who cannot update to OSX Mavericks will be able to continue downloading their applications optimized for example for Lion or Snow Leopard. The Mac App Store will have the versions of the new applications perfect for OSX Mavericks but will also have the older versions for those users.
If you do not want the download of previous versions of the application to be available, for example due to its use or a legal issue, you can manage its availability in the "Rights and Prices" section, within "Application Management" in iTunes . To exclude a specific version, click "Manage iCloud settings to download this application." For more information on managing backward versions, see the iTunes Developer Guide or contact us.
In this way, they do not condemn all those users to having to change their computers at this time if they want to continue using those applications.
