Deprecated Frameworks (MAC002 /MAC102)
AdminStudio 2022 | 23.0 | Application Manager
For this operating system compatibility test, the macOS application is scanned to determine if it contains references to a deprecated framework.
Similar to the Windows “shim” database, macOS has a list of applications that are known to have compatibility issues. OS X will either prevent them from installing, or prevent them from running if they were installed prior to the OS upgrade. When you upgrade your Mac to OS X, or when you migrate your content to a new Mac, software that is known to be incompatible with the new version of OS X is set aside and won’t run on your updated system.
Note:During the upgrade or migration process, OS X creates an Incompatible Software folder at the top level startup drive of your Mac. Software known to be incompatible with the new version of OS X is placed in this folder. You can look in this folder to see the applications that were set aside.

Resolution
If you want to use one of these incompatible applications, you need to get an updated version that is compatible with your new OS. Applications in the Mac App Store list their compatibility and system requirements on their product pages. You can also check with the application developer to find out if they have a new, compatible version or plan to release one.
