We will not update Prism 8 to run natively on M1 chips, but Prism 8 runs fine under Rosetta. We have not thoroughly tested Prism 7 with macOS Big Sur or Apple Silicon (via Rosetta), but it seems to work fine. Prism 6 and older will not work (or launch) on macOS Big Sur (these versions will also not launch on macOS 10.15 Catalina). When updating from Prism 7 or 8 on macOS Big Sur, there is a known issue in which the Software Update dialog (displaying the update notification for new versions of Prism) appears to display the wrong Prism version number. #GRAPHPAD PRISM 4 COMPATIBILITY MAC YOSEMITE SOFTWARE# For example, if updating from Prism 8 to Prism 9.0.0, the updater will provide the message: This update window incorrectly inserts the current Prism version number into the new Prism version that is available. This incorrectly causes the update notifications to appear as though a new version of Prism 8 is available, when in fact it is a new version of Prism 9. #GRAPHPAD PRISM 4 COMPATIBILITY MAC YOSEMITE UPDATE# The Windows and Mac versions of Prism use the same file format, and you can go back and forth between Prism 9 Win and Mac without any special conversion.

This problem has been fixed with Prism 9. Issues With older versions, there is one problem.
