Work with OS X Catalina?

[GabrielNavasA]

Just wondering if anyone updated to Catalina?
Keys still working?
Thanks!

[GabrielNavasA]

I tried to install VSCO Keys on a Catalina but I couldn't make it work. These are the lines that appear in the log.

TRACE error:errorCode = "cannotConnectToHost"
nativeCode = "-1004"

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Nope, it killed VSCO keys for me. DAMMIT.

Same here. I guess it is due to the 32/64 bit change.

[GabrielNavasA]

But I understand VSCO Keys is 64bits.

I updated to Catalina without thinking VSCO Keys would be affected :(

[GabrielNavasA]

and it doesn't work, doesn't it?

Glad I found this, if it doesn't work there's no way I'm updating to Catalina

Every time an OS or LR has a significant update, VSCO Keys breaks. I've decided with this one to just move on...sadly...I found an app called PFixer Core that not only includes the same VSCO key layouts, but lets you customize anything. Pretty great. I've been using it in my editing workflow for the last couple weeks and it's been pretty much seamless.

I bought pfixer two years ago but the values between adjustments could not be altered. For example, if you pressed a key to increase the blacks, it would go up a set amount, maybe like +5, and the software wouldn't allow me to change the value, for example to +1 or something similar. Has that changed?

I stopped trying a few OS' ago, but I used Keyboards Maestro to give me the same functionality as VSCO Keys did. So PFixer and Key Maestro together gives me the same performance I had with VSCO Keys. I edit over 400k images year, so it's a big deal to me!

Hi @DFStockel, this sounds intriguing. Do you have some more details to share? How is this all set up? I would actually only need to move some sliders around with the keyboard, and apply some presets. How does your setup look like? Thanks for your help!

Hey all,

I've added support for macOS Catalina for Lightroom Classic 9. If you're interested, you can download the latest version here: https://github.com/cajames/keys/releases/tag/v2.0.3-alpha

Please let me know if you have any issues. I've tested it on:

macOS Catalina 10.15.1
Lightroom Classic 9.1

System requires password to grant VK keyboard access. I enter password but still unable to run the app.

@bwehman Did you uninstall the previous version before installing this? Please be sure to remove the LR plugin too from Lightroom, and install the new plugin.

Then the app should start when Lightroom starts. Let me know if that isn't the case. Also, could you mention what version of macOS, and Lightroom you're using.
