If you’re getting the GnuCash splash screen then it is starting, but then 
either being hidden, or crashing.

I’ll presume:


That you’ve checked *all* workspaces for the window?

That you’ve right-clicked the icon in the dock and tried the ’Show all Windows’ 
entry? (as well as maybe assigned it to ’this’ desktop or ‘all desktops’)

That the right-click menu of the GnuCash icon in your dock does *not* have a 
’show’ entry near the bottom, but instead says ‘hide’ (meaning the window is 
*not* hidden in this case, it is a toggle)

That a command-tab does not show an icon for GnuCash?

That GnuCash.app is not listed in ActivityMonitor.app after the splash screen 
goes away?

That a MacOS crash report is also not appearing on the screen after the splash 
screen disappears?

You’ve tried running with just a single display plugged in?



If all of the above is true, then try running from a terminal.app window:

/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash

Which might output some helpful stuff to the terminal window.

Also, check the wiki about how to find the TraceFile on Mac and report both 
back here.



If however, GnuCash.app is not properly installed in /Applications or 
~/Applications as it always has been or that you haven't verified with 
Gatekeeper that you want to open the app by *first* right-clicking it and 
confirming this (only needed after each fresh install of GnuCash) then you 
shouldn’t even be seeing the splash screen.

Adrien
