It is unlikely that they tested the Steam client on every operating system that it is supposed to be able to run on.

Yes, a startup like Valve wouldnt have the ressource to do so.

If you don't have the resources to test, you don't have the resources to launch

Happy to report this works on a mid-2010 iMac running macOS High Sierra 10.13.6. However...

Thanks, but It seems it only solves half of the problem, when you select Properties on a game it opens a black screen...

This is still a problem for me as well. I guess I have more motivation to make the switch to Linux or PC, but Valve really bungled this rollout.

anyone use the terminal solution to use steam but is now having difficulty using controllers that had previously worked? XBOX 1 controller has worked flawlessly untill this update... I am unable to open game preferences to see if anythings changed..

this worked for me as well. 10.13.6 mac here. suspecting this is only a temporary workaround, as blackscreen on mac has been a longtime problem.

Hey all, if anyone gets any info from the software developers, that would be great.

I tried running this, and now realized that it doesn't support properties in games. The black screen/UI still appears in some places (most specifically when I was trying to add the launch options to the TSP demo).

You basically just have to blindly search around until the cursor acts like it detected somewhere it can type, click it, then type whatever launch options you need/want.

hello, open steam with -vgui, then go to parameters, interface and disable gpu accelerated rendering in wep views; and hardware video decoder.
that worked for me

Did Steam latest update on Asus W10 other day, that's fine. Did latest update (June 16) on my iMac 27 inch 2009, High Sierra, ATI Radeon HD 4850, and as many others have noted, nothing but BLACKSCREEN. I'm not sure I want to try the terminal workaround that was suggested and is working for others...
Steam definitely should've tested this BIG update on all systems before it was launched. =__=

the terminal fix is pretty janky, you can play games, but many features are still locked by blackscreen

If you open up Steam as per usual (with all it’s blackness) and then go to finder and find your steam library with all your games, - you can find the program logo for each game (or exe file, depending on what it says) and open the games this way. At least it has worked so far for me with the 2 games I tested..
It’s just a “work around” for playing until there’s hopefully gonna be a fix…

I only wanted to use my Macbook to stream games from my gaming PC to play them in my living room on the big TV, and none of that works now as Steam on my Mac is just black windows. None of the above fixes will help for that.

I just picked up a USB-C to HDMI adaptor for that sole purpose the day before this update. At least I can play the emulators on my Mac on a giant screen now. HAHA!!!!

Please fix this, Valve.

You can temporarily use this command line string until they fix it (open Terminal in your Utilities folder, and enter the command):

Great, thank you, its working for me

I'm also having the same issue, running Steam on MacOS High Sierra 10.13.6, can see the store page but none of the rest of it, and it's LOADED because the mouse changes based on what it's over, but I can't SEE any of it. Found a work around of launching the game from the Web Store, but that requires the game be downloaded already
