calibre-4 .dmg file
I've tried downloading the new 4.0 version multiple times onto my Mac, which is running the latest system. I cannot open the file. I get the message: "no mountable file systems" every time. I've never had this problem before... what's different?

You'd probably do better asking in the Calibre forums. I will say that the first time I downloaded 4.0, the whole file didn't download (although system said 'finished'). So you could try to download again.
Failing that, check out the Calibre forums. |

It requires macOS Mojave 10.14. The dmg format being used probably does not exist before 10.11 or 10.12. But that is just a guess as my machine runs 10.13.6 and can't run it.

I'm on 10.13.6, and I am able to mount the dmg. However, once mounted, Calibre is shown with a line through it — which answers my other question about the feasibility of running Calibre on High Sierra
P.S. I downloaded with Safari, then downloaded again with Chrome. The strike-through over the app appears on both versions. Last edited by odamizu; 10-04-2019 at 08:29 PM. |

Just reboot your mac, and you should be fine. Provided you are running Mojave or newer.
