This is on Catalina while running Mathematica 12 (64-bit version which is technically supported on Catalina). I can open notebooks but they seem unresponsive to typing or scrolling. However, if I drag or resize the window then I can see the changes I made. I am unsure if the issue is with Mathematica or with Catalina. I wanted to post here in case anyone has faced similar issues / knows a solution. I will be contacting Wolfram tomorrow.

  • Have you tried searching this site for "unresponsive" or something else that describes the situation? It may be a problem that has occurred on previous releases and/or system. – LouisB Oct 21 '19 at 23:31
  • Thanks for the suggestion. I did find a solution that worked. Posting it below. – Quarky Quanta Oct 22 '19 at 04:52

Executing the following in the Terminal solves the issue:

defaults write com.wolfram.Mathematica NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance -bool YES
