Applications that currently do not install successfully on Ventura (macOS 13):
Ableton Live 11.1.5 (the install “FAILED” and, as such, the 40G of sound packs can’t be unpacked – don’t try it!)
Camtasia – ACE audio driver can’t be installed on 13
Parallels Desktop 17 does not license properly
None currently!

Ableton Live – application indicates it is “Damaged” and can’t be launched (NOTE – the builder has been fixed and just waiting for the next version.)
...
Examplify (reports Damaged) (NOTE – the builder has been fixed and just waiting for the next version.)
...

...
:
Examplify
Previous versions will present as “Damaged”.
If you see this, trash the app and reinstall via MSC as that has been fixed.
Ozone 9 Audio Plug-Ins
Nimbus, R4, Izotope (Nectar 3, Neutron 2 and 3) and Foundry M7 Link
Lightwright 6 – crashes unexpectedly at quit
Spartan 20 – License Utility does not work
Xcode 13 does not run on Ventura – we are not (at this time) packaging the beta of Xcode 14 for deployment along with Ventura
Microsoft Office apps may crash at launch. If that happens, trash one of the Apps (like Excel) as that will force a redownload of Office in Managed Software Center and a reinstall may fix it. Don’t uninstall Office and reinstall it – that will not work.
Microsoft Excel may not select cells/rows correctly. This has been reported. Moving the spreadsheet around with the scroll bars may help, but you may have to quit and reopen the spreadsheet to get it to work properly – until it stops working again.
Applications that are not installing updates via Managed Software Center (not an authoritative list) – different apps fail with different betas (running list for beta 5) – it’s possible these updates may install if the apps are trashed before the updates are installed:
BlackMagic Desktop Video
Davinci Resolve Studio (same company as BlackMagic Desktop)
Resolume Arena (again)
JMP Pro 16.2 update (again) – may be fixed.
iLok License Manager
Things that may not work that have been mentioned by beta testers:
- Punchouts are not opening in Marketsite in Safari (but work in Chrome/Firefox) – fixed in beta 5/Public Beta 3
Final Cut, GarageBand, Logic, Premiere Pro, Audacity, and other audio apps may complain or hang with an error “did not pass the Apple AU validation”. FinalCut Pro 10.6.5 may handle this better after a force-quit and relaunch to display the “Incompatible Audio Units Found”
System Settings is the new name for System Preferences:
With its new name, System Settings looks more like your iPhone
...
Profiles has moved under Privacy & Security
Erase All Content and Settings (EACS) is now under General / Transfer or Reset pane
macOS 13.1 may present a prompt to “Update Apple ID Settings” (fixed in 13.2):
Some users may see the prompt to update a “(null)” AppleID after updating to macOS 13.1. This has been fixed in macOS 13.2. If you are still seeing this on 13.2 (or later), just hit “Cancel” and that should resolve it.
