If you are running macOS Tahoe, you will discover a special tab about Tahoe on the linked web site. This information is almost a year old and out of date and should be ignored. Instead, there is a new version of TeXShop for Tahoe which has no known issues, has more up-to-date typesetting engines, and has an important new feature for dark mode. That program is called TeXShop-5.58-GG.
TeXShop-5.58-GG was developed for macOS Golden Gate, which Apple released on June 15 and is still in early beta. The program has a few bugs on Golden Gate. It can run on Sonoma, Sequoia, Tahoe, and Golden Gate, and when run on Tahoe it has no known bugs.
To obtain TeXShop-5.58-GG, read the link "TeXShop on macOS Golden Gate" lower on the page. Most items can be skimmed. Carefully read the section on dark mode. At the bottom of this linked page, there is a link named "TeXShop-5.58-GG.zip". Click this link when reading the page on Tahoe, and run the resulting program.
Apple introduced a new version of macOS called macOS 27.0, Golden Gate, at the Developer Conference during the week of June 15, 2026. TeXShop was recently compiled on this system, and is available to early beta testers on the page below. Apple will soon provide public betas of Golden Gate before releasing the system this fall.Ghostscript 10.07.1 was released on April 19, 2026. This version can be installed without removing earlier versions of Ghostscript first. The install package below has universal Intel and Arm binaries and works on macOS Big Sur and above. At the moment there is no associated Ghostscript 10.07.1-Extras, but that program is required by only one program in TeX Live, dvisvgm. In the unlikely case that you use dvisvgm, do not update. Others can update to Ghostscript 10.07.1. Revert back to Ghostscript-10.07.0 in case of trouble. Thanks to Bruno Voisin for keeping contact with the Ghostscript folks and notifying us when the new version appeared.

An associated install package for Ghostscript-10.04.0-Extras, containing the Ghostscript Library and muTool 1.24.9, is also provided below. These extra items are required by only one program in TeX Live, dvisvgm. In case of trouble, revert to Ghostscript 10.03.0.
(Originally, dvisvgm also required X11. This requirement was removed on January 24, 2025 and dvisvgm will work with the two packages below regardless of whether X11 is installed.)
Ghostscript 10.03.0 was released on March 7, 2024. An install package is provided below. The package has universal Intel and Arm binaries and works on macOS Mojave and above. The associated install package for Ghostscript-10.03.0-Extras, containing the Ghostscript Library and muTool 1.23.11, is also provided below. Ghostscript 9.50 was released October 15, 2019. Below is a signed and notarized Macintosh install package for this version of Ghostscript. The package works on macOS High Sierra and above, for Intel. The version of the package linked below was released on December 22, 2019; the new version has a Custom mode which can also install the ghostscript library libgs.dylib in /usr/local/lib. This library is required by dvisvgm to enable certain operations, but most users will not need to install it. The Hint Project is a typesetting project by Martin Ruckert, described on the web page https://hint.userweb.mwn.de. The command line typesetting programs hitex and hilatex from this project are in TeX Live. They convert TeX and LaTeX source files to "hint files" rather than "pdf files"; hint files contain information needed to reflow the text if the user resizes the view or magnifies the text. Ruckert wrote hint file viewers for various operating systems; his viewer for macos is in the MacTeX install package. That viewer is also available below, together with a README file with more information about the project. The viewer below has been updated to also support HINT Format Version 2.1, with added support for color. The hitex program in TeX Live 2025 will have this added support when TeX Live 2025 is released later in 2025.
