Update Safari
The editor needs Safari 26 or later.
- Open System Settings → General → Software Update and install any macOS or Safari update.
- Quit and reopen Safari, then open your video in the editor and click Try again.
To check your version, open Safari and choose Safari → About Safari in the menu bar.
If Software Update doesn’t offer Safari 26, your Mac can’t run it. Open the video in Chrome instead — the editor works in Chrome on older Macs too.
Update Firefox
Firefox only supports the editor on recent versions for Windows and Mac. Update Firefox from Firefox → About Firefox (Mac) or Help → About Firefox (Windows), restart it, and click Try again.
Firefox on Linux doesn’t support the editor yet. Use Chrome instead.

Update your browser to its latest version and relaunch it. If the message stays, open the video in the latest version of Chrome, Microsoft Edge or Brave.
