The release notes for 9.0.0 stable state otherwise as quoted below
referring directly to the IDE, not Standalones.

I also checked on my versions here and it is definitely 64bit so I’m not
sure why your machine is not saying the same.

Try this script for the file path to your LC ide in the terminal.

lipo -info /Applications/LiveCode\ Indy\ 9.0.2\ \(rc\
1\).app/Contents/MacOS/LiveCode-Indy


For me it shows:

are: i386 x86_64

Demonstrating both 32 and 64 bit.
The IDE itself is just a rev script that runs within the LC overall
environment so would not be 64 or 32 bit itself.
