Upgrade to macOS Big Sur
I am brand new to the Mac OS and one of the programs I would really like to use is X-Plane. My System Report indicates that it recognizes my joystick as connected to a USB port. I downloaded the X-Plane demo and the settings menu within the simulator software does not recognize the joystick. The current Mac operating system is macOS, originally named 'Mac OS X' until 2012 and then 'OS X' until 2016. Developed between 1997 and 2001 after Apple's purchase of NeXT, Mac OS X brought an entirely new architecture based on NeXTSTEP, a Unix system, that eliminated many of the technical challenges that the classic Mac OS faced.
