UPDATE 10/17/16:

Printing to departmental and lab printers is now supported on macOS Sierra thanks to an upgrade to the print environment last week. To print from macOS Sierra, you must reinstall the iPrint client. For instructions, please see http://apps.denison.edu/helpdesk/faq3362.

A new Pulse Secure VPN client for Remote Access that supports macOS Sierra will be coming with an upgrade to the VPN server (remote.denison.edu) on Thursday, 10/27/16. If you need access to the updated VPN client before 10/27, please see http://apps.denison.edu/helpdesk/faq3962 for instructions on how to install it.

IMPORTANT FACULTY/STAFF NOTE: ITS still recommends that those with Denison Mac computers do NOT upgrade to macOS Sierra unless there is a specific need to do so. If that is the case, please check with your department’s instructional technologist/ITS liaison to make sure there are no known issues with applications that you use.

ORIGINAL POST:

On September 20, 2016, Apple released the latest version of the Mac operating system called macOS Sierra. ITS is just beginning to evaluate this new operating system for compatibility with Denison standard software and technology services.

Very early testing results show compatibility problems with Denison’s printing solution for departmental and lab printers. While you can continue to print to printers already installed on your Mac before upgrading to macOS Sierra, you cannot install any new printers.

ITS recommends holding off on upgrading to macOS Sierra until more testing has been completed. Updates will be posted here as soon as additional information is available.

If you have any questions, please contact the ITS Help Desk at 740-587-6395 or helpdesk@denison.edu.
