Unable to launch app on seemingly compatible MBP #153

Hi,

I can't seem to run this on a MacBook Pro (15 inch, Mid 2010) running macOS High Sierra 10.13.6. It tells me that "You can't open this application because it is not supported on this type of Mac." After reading through the other solved issues, I could not find a suggestion that applies to my case.

Thank you.

Hello, sorry for the delay. Can you provide a capture of your mac "About" menu : https://support.apple.com/fr-fr/guide/system-information/syspr35536/mac

I have the same issue with my MacBook Pro (17 inch, Mid 2010) running macOS High Sierra 10.13.6. I disabled SIP and tried running MBPMid2010-GPU-Fix-0.6.1, but I also get the message, "Sorry, your Mac is not compatible. The application will close"

Please help! Screen Shot 2023-02-16 at 23 18 52

Hello @eyc9a, I'm really sorry but the issue on the 17 inch version is different for the 15 inch version, hence, this patch can only resolves the issue for the 15-inch version.

Oh, I was afraid of that. Merci quand même!
