  Hello,

  I know, I know... it's the $60,000 question. Will the Fetch I know and love be ready for Apple's Catalina coming soon?

  Thank you!

  I am currently working on Fetch 5.8, a 64-bit version of Fetch. I hope that it will be suitable for release by the time macOS 10.15 Catalina is released, but I can't promise that I will succeed, so if you need a guarantee of 64-bit compatibility I would recommend investigating alternatives such as Transmit by Panic Software.

  If you are interested in beta-testing Fetch 5.8 please go to

  to subscribe to the beta-test list.

  Thanks,

  Hi there,

  OS Catalina is out now and I'm dying to upgrade. So I was wondering, any progress on the 64-bit version?

  I rely on Fetch almost daily for work and would hate to have to find an alternative.

  Thanks!

  I am still on 10.13 exclusively because of FETCH and hesitant as I use every day — my main uses are 1) mirroring from my MacPro workstation to remote OS-X servers (commonly, the mirrored directories will contain 5,000 - 10,000 files) and can often have half a dozen mirror sessions running at the same time.

  Also, equally use in editing remote files with BBEDIT — again, daily. I assume this is not.the most common use for FETCH which is why I volunteered to try the beta.

  I was just forced to upgrade to Catalina on my Mac Pro. Now it seems that I can not use Fetch, an app that I use regularly for my business. Very sad. Like an old friend gone forever. I hope there is a replacement.
