Is MATLAB compatible with macOS Sierra?

Answer 1

[MathWorks Support Team]

MATLAB R2016b is compatible with macOS Sierra. Earlier versions of MATLAB may work but we do not guarantee full compatibility with these releases.

Furthermore, there are a few incompatibilities to be aware of when running MATLAB on macOS Sierra.

Language & Region issues in MATLAB

When using certain Language & Region combinations, MATLAB may fail to load an appropriate character encoding for your locale. This can result in the MATLAB user interface displaying in a language different than expected. This may also cause text files to be corrupted when loading and saving.

For more information about this incompatibility, see the following article on MATLAB Answers:
