MarsEdit 4.2.1 is now available for download from the MarsEdit home page<\/a> and has been submitted to the Mac App Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After Apple shipped macOS Mojave last week, I got a report from a MarsEdit customer who was trying out all the new bells and whistles. They discovered that the new Continuity Camera<\/a> feature didn’t work in MarsEdit. Instead of inserting the freshly snapped picture from their phone, it crashed the app!<\/p>\n

The problem turns out to be rooted in Apple’s handling of “file promises.” In a nutshell: since MarsEdit has gotten so good at accepting file promises from various apps, it’s also become vulnerable to bugs like this one, where file promise information that will crash the app<\/em> is placed on the pasteboard.<\/p>\n

MarsEdit 4.2.1 works around this crash. Now if you want to take a picture from your phone to add to a blog post, just right-click in the Editor, and select “Take Photo” from the menu item next to your phone’s name:<\/p>\n
