So Ayesh... name... How about you put the Launcher.app somewhere where the people who upgraded to Catalina already can download it?

Aaaaand just because people do not know anything about Macs, so before anyone tries.
Downloading the game and installing new does not work.
Because it will download the old Launcher.app.

This is now outdated, so just FTR (because I do not know anything about Macs lol):Downloading the game and installing new does not work.
Yes it does.Because it will download the old Launcher.app.
No it dos not.
Both are now 64 bits and the "reinstall" method works just fine.
There are still graphical issues with the actual client however but at least we are over the launcher issue. It was several weeks beyond they time they should have done this though, not leaving it to the last minute. Maybe then they'd have folks running the beta Catalina on PTS testing it and discovering the real breaking issues that we are all now "beta testing" on live servers.

The Launcher is written by Solid State Networks. I have contacted them months ago, and they have told me that they had provided ZOS with a 64 bit version already. Makes sense, SSN specialises in this stuff, why in the world would they not do their job and update their Launcher? It is ZOS who fail to pass it on....
The updated Launcher actually will be installed if you go to your accounts page and download the game setup file, then start setup. It will pretty much just replace the Launcher. It is awkward, but then again, is there something ZOS does to Mac users that is NOT awkward?
The white screen happens all the time, what you do is go to the menu bar and in Window select Toggle Fullscreen Mode. The window will go small, and it should show you the intro and let you log in.
Still, the whole thing is so buggy. Fullscreen mode still does not work when you tab out. Windowed Fullscreen is crappy. Framerates are crappy. ZOS communication is crappy.
As usual, all the worst. I am still happy playing WoW classic and not playing ZOS any money for Plus.

I am on a mac and while i get the audio, all i get is a white (blank) screen. I am no techie, but i've tried what little i know to resolve the problem. i got both the update and catalina the same day. Can you help. i've missed a week of playing so far and would really like to get back in the game. Thanks.
Thanks Marvilius, it got me into the game. Now if I can get the screen to stop spinning, I'm good to go. Used to I could go into my Privicy setting and reset the apps. Not this time. Any suggestions? And Thank you again.
Well, I'm mostly in the game. I can't move items from me into the bank. I am enclosing 2 screeshots to see if you can help with the error message
Please let me know.
Thank you.

Now the thought of doing so is like nails on a chalkboard. Let me know when I no longer have to jump through hurdles to fire up ESO and not have the launcher and client fight me at every turn and I might consider playing it again. Until then, there I’ll spend my money and my time elsewhere.
