Whats is the output for: grep -i tempdir ~/Library/Application\ Support/LyX-2.5/preferences echo $TMPDIR Possible workaround - try to remove path to temporary directory in Preferences dialog (or go directly for \tempdir_path line in preferences file). Please report back, we might try to get long term fix for this. Pavel -- lyx-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
