BearExtender Mini for Mac Support

BearExtender Mini was discontinued in 2013 and is not supported officially beyond Mac OS 10.10.


If you have Mac OS 10.12 Sierra and want to try to get extended life out of your BearExtender Mini, we do have an unsupported DMG you can install, but you must first uninstall any previous version of BearExtender software. This means if you were running 10.9, you will need to download our 10.9 package first and run the uninstall package inside before installed the 10.12 update.
