I have no idea why that works—for me, using "Rosetta" causes an error. Apple has announced plans to drop support for Rosetta in OS28 ("cutting ties with the past"), so I would recommend uninstalling the app and setting it up again from scratch, following Simon's instructions.
Hallo Klaus,
Yes, I know, but thank you for the reminder. The new installation of Java didn't make any difference - unfortunately. Maybe Simon will get in touch again...
Hallo Thokra,
That sounds really strange; for some reason I cannot fathom, the operating system is interpreting the MinimWatch app as an application for Intel processors.
The only solutions here are a "clean slate" approach or contacting Simon
.
Regarding the "clean slate" approach:
1. Uninstall the Watch app
2. Install the latest JDK
3. Then reinstall the Watch app according to the instructions
by the way - my MinimWatch log file looks like this:
MinimWatch 2.2 update 120, Copyright © 2012-2026 Simon Nash. All rights reserved.
Java SE Runtime Environment (build 26.0.1+8-34)
Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM (build 26.0.1+8-34, mixed mode, sharing)
Java runtime options: -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
Platform default charset is UTF-8
System platform is macos-arm
Hello Klaus,
Thank you! Yes, now MinimWatch runs without Rosetta. The problem was obviously that my Java 8 was displayed as current, even though it is outdated. Now I have installed Java 25 and the desired effect has occurred.
By the way: Has the icon in the toolbar changed for you as well? No longer 2 notes on the note lines, but a single note without a background? This just for completeness to make sure that the installation hasn't somehow failed.
Klaus, thank you again!
I'm glad it seems to be working; attached is my icon from the toolbar.
Best regards,
Klaus
Thank you, Klaus, looks the same here.
