Good day,

I recently decided to join the Jagex Account beta. However, I did not realise that it would lock me out of playing on my MacBook Pro!

It seems that even though Jagex has rolled out the closed beta, they must have forgotten about the Mac users. Now I am locked out of two of my best accounts, this one included, on my main computer.

The game works as would be expected on my iPad and iPhone, however- crashing is a HUGE issue on the iPad; so PVM is out of the question right now.

Has anyone had any luck getting Jagex Accounts to work on Mac OS Ventura 13.1?

- Boo.

Please disregard first post. The Launcher works.

However, there's a weird feature, not sure whether it's a bug. If you have multiple accounts hooked up to the Jagex Launcher, you cannot then add a Jagex Account to the launcher.

I have a few other accounts that I have created for the purpose of playing with my nieces and nephews, but would otherwise not use.

This is something that should be looked into though.

Was about to say, I've been using the launcher just fine since July on macOS. At least you got it working now.

As for the launcher thing, that's intentional. You can either use the launcher with non-Jagex accts, and can have multiples added to it, or you use it with a Jagex Account.

With the future being just Jagex Accounts, and this being more of an early adoption system, that's likely not something they're going to change.

You'd have to load the client normally and sign in through the old login portal to access the account that way until JA's become required to use; or, import them to your Jagex Account, and whenever they log into their accounts, just load up the client with the selected one.

What did you do to get your Mac to open the launcher? When I try to download the launcher and click "open" it asks if im sure because its downloaded off the App Store and I click yes, then ill just click it endlessly and nothing happens.
