Users most frequently need a legacy download because they’re on an older version of the Mac’s operating system (MacOS), one which our current release no longer supports.
Apple releases a new version of MacOS each year, and we work hard to support both these annual updates, as well as multiple previous versions of MacOS. Eventually, however, changes to the operating system force us to drop support for older MacOS versions.
When we end support for an older MacOS version, we update our Legacy page with a link to last compatible version of each of our products. This enables folks still running an older version of MacOS to access and use our software.
When we add substantial new functionality to a product, we may ship it as a new version. Access to this new version will require another purchase, with owners of the previous version being offered a discounted upgrade price. You can read more about upgrades here.
We never force you to upgrade, however. The now-outdated version of the software will continue to work uninterrupted. Further, the Legacy page always offers links to download these outdated versions, providing you with permanent access to what you purchased.
Rogue Amoeba opened its virtual doors way back in 2002. Over more than two decades in business, we have occasionally found it necessary to retire products which have seen their utility wan.

All of our products must be unlocked with a license key, and that includes legacy downloads. Purchasing a license key through our store will enable you to unlock the current version, and also entitle you to unlock any legacy downloads you may wish to use.
Many legacy downloads will unlock with a current license key. Certain very old applications may require a secondary license key, which we can provide. If you’ve purchased a product and need additional assistance unlocking it, please get in touch.
All legacy downloads are battle-tested, and we generally expect them to perform without issue. However, they are not fully supported the way the current version of the software is.
If you need assistance with a legacy version of Airfoil for Mac, we still invite you to get in touch with our support team. We’ll do our best to assist you, but our ultimate recommendation may be that you update to a current version of the product.
On iOS, the App Store itself provides access to older versions. If you're running an older version of iOS, you’ll be able to download compatible software directly through the App Store.
