High Sierra
As a follow-up to my message below. I think we have solved the TCPTalk
issue.
Kelly may correct me on the specifics but it appears the issue is that I
needed to create a Self-Signed Email Certificate on the Mac. The security
challenges we were getting was the Mac setting up a temporary certificate
for each email I was sending. Unfortunately, the security message said
nothing about that. Only that Omnis Studio wanted to make changes and to
enter my password to allow it. (5 times for each email.)
I am working on a brand-new iMac that had no previous certificates when I
upgraded to High Sierra. (Which is probably a good thing or I may never
have known that there was the issue out there waiting to happen to someone.)
To solve the issue…
1.) Open Keychain Access form /Applications / Utilities
2.) Select the Keychain Access Menu
3.) Select Certificate Assistance
4.) Select Create Certificate
5.) At this point a “Create Certificate” window opens with your Name, Ident
Type and Certificate Type. (Your name, Self-Signed Root, S/MIME (Email))
6.) Click the “Create” button and acknowledge the message that tells you
that Self Signed Certificates are not as secure as those purchased from a
certified certificate authority.
That’s it.
I am able to verify the issue by deleting the certificate I created and the
previous behavior of multiple Password Challenges returns.

Hi Reg,
Using 4.3.2.1 on High Sierra for a week now. So far, the only issue I am
having is new security issues with TCPTalk. Kelly and I (Mostly Kelly
telling me what I need to try as my higher level Mac knowledge is way
limited) have been working on finding what needs to been done. See my post
from last week on the three TCP commands causing problems.
Other than that, all seems to be working quite well. No display issues that
I have seen so far and no crashing. Have not given it a huge workout as I
have been focused on the TCPTalk thing but it looks good so far.

Subject: High Sierra
Hi all,
Up till now, I was under the impression that the version of macOS AFTER High
Sierra was going to break the older versions of Omnis.
I just found this post from Andrew Smith in the Omnis Developer Forum:
We wish to inform developers that Omnis Studio 8.0.3 or earlier will
not support macOS 10.13, known as High Sierra. Omnis Studio 8.1 or
higher will support High Sierra and if you wish to create and run
applications on macOS 10.13, we recommend you upgrade to Omnis
Studio 8.1.x.
Some things never change, eh? I would have hoped that Omnis Software could
provide more detail and I would have hoped that something so important would
be publicised in a place where people would actually read it, i.e. this
list.
Does anyone know exactly what does not work? I am interested in Studio 6.1,
but I’m sure other developers will be interested in other versions.
Cheers,
Reg
