Hi saradt,

I understand you’re trying to install the AnKing Step deck but are running into compatibility issues with your older Mac running Catalina 10.15.7 and Anki 2.1.35.

Compatibility Information

According to the information in our documentation, the AnkiHub add-on (which is required for accessing the AnKing Step deck) requires a newer version of Anki than what you’re currently using. The latest recommended version is Anki 24.04.1, as mentioned in our Getting Started guide.

Unfortunately, Anki 2.1.35 is too old to support the current AnkiHub add-on.

Potential Solutions

  1. Check if a newer Anki version supports Catalina: While you mentioned you cannot upgrade your Mac, some newer versions of Anki might still be compatible with macOS Catalina. You could try installing Anki version 2.1.49 or 2.1.50, which might work with both Catalina and the AnkiHub add-on.

  2. Older AnkiHub versions: You might want to check if there are older versions of the AnkiHub add-on that would be compatible with Anki 2.1.35, though this is less likely to be supported.

  3. Alternative (non-AnkiHub) version: The AnKing team previously released their decks in non-AnkiHub formats before moving to the AnkiHub platform. You might be able to find an older version (V11 or earlier) of the AnKing Step deck that doesn’t require AnkiHub.

Next Steps

I’d recommend:

  1. First trying to install the newest version of Anki that will run on macOS Catalina
  2. If that doesn’t work, reaching out to the AnKing team directly via their YouTube channel or website to ask about alternatives for older systems

Would you like me to help you find specific information about which Anki versions might work with your macOS version?
