Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of Bean 3.0.9.

What's new in this version:

Bug fixes:
- Bean Preferences > New > Custom > Choose Template now defaults to the user’s Templates folder (since Lion 10.7 make is almost impossible to navigate there) (20120401-1).
- Added live updating of text ruler offset for layout views when a window is resized (20120311-1).
- File > Revert to Saved no longer forgets the font used with plain text files (20120317-1).
- File > Revert to Saved is now only active when the document has changed from the saved version (20120317-2).
- File > Revert to Saved now restores the saved typing attributes of empty documents (20120317-4).
- File > New Plain Text Document (cmd+option+n) could fail to show the Settings menu in the main menu. Fixed (20120317-3).
- The side bar document list (Documents > Side bar) now resolves aliases dropped from Finder (20120317-5).
- The side bar document list now has a minimum size slightly more than zero to prevent it from disappearing completely (20120320-2).

Changes:
There is now a hidden preference to remove the gray hatched tiled pattern from the layout view background. Quit Bean, then use this terminal command (change YES to NO to reverse the setting):
- defaults write com.bean-osx.Bean prefLayoutViewNoTexture -bool YES
- Added Catalan localization, courtesy Toni Cama.
- Added Italian localization, courtesy Stefano Carlini.
