I just acquired a MacBook Pro M1 computer with the Ventura operating system. I previously used TS2 with the Catalina OS where it worked well. But I have been having trouble activating TS-3 with Ventura OS. Are they compatible?
I read somewhere that one does not need to turn off SIP with TS-3. Is that right?
Would appreciate some help. Thanks!
I am running TS3 on a MacBook Air M1. It does work but crashes quite often, especially after closing a fullscreen window. It is hardly usable any more.
I am now trying to make friends with stage manger and Mission Control.
No need to turn off SIP.
It works pretty well with Monterey. I will probably hold off upgrading to Ventura.

My situation is similar, except I’m running a newly acquired M1 Mac Mini 2020. I installed with SIP disabled because with it enabled it just wouldn’t install. Ventura will accept TS3 as a login item, but only as a background App, which means that to use it I still need to launch the app manually. It does display running apps, so long as they aren’t hidden by Stage Manager, and it’s possible to drag windows from one space in my nine window grid to another. One thing that’s odd is that, even though apps may be hidden by Stage Manager, Ventura seems to know where they were, and if I click on such a space to bring the window to the foreground, it won’t make the switch and shows instead a blank window representing the app. Interestingly, Ventura is actually opening the app on that desktop, and if you come out of overview and then go back, it shows the app in full detail in the overview. I find the most reliable way to switch to a new space from the overview grid is to click on the open desktop of that window on the far right side, away from where Stage Manager is hiding windows. I sometimes switch off Stage Manager from the menu bar icon because of this phenomenon. Another annoying problem I encountered is that Ventura has a hard time keeping the wallpaper images attached to the individual workspaces. Because of this, I copied the photos I like to use for wallpaper into the default location for wallpaper photos. It does seem to do better with the photos in that default location but even then the link will break. Right now, my space number eight, in the center of the bottom row of three, displays the correct wallpaper in full screen, but the default Ventura wallpaper in the overview grid. It’s working well enough that I can live with the oddities. I should mention that the version of TS3 I’m using is 0.9.125. If there’s a stable later version I’d love to try it out.
