Re: v17 immediately quits on launch
Do you mean macOS 10.2.6 — OR — 10.12.6? The minimum macOS for v17.3 is 10.12.6. > On Sep 27, 2019, at 9:04 AM, Pat Bensky via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> > wrote: > > He's on Mac OS 10.2.6 and the version is 17.3. ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
Re: v17 immediately quits on launch
Below (remove quarantine) is a safer option, as it only affects those apps which, currently, have are quarantined; rather then allowing everything from everywhere to be installed.

Re: v17 immediately quits on launch
Sorry my last post got slightly truncated in one place... here it is again but complete... Pat, Did the client send you any crash logs? I posted about a crashing issue with v17 just recently over on the 4D Forum. See this thread: https://forums.4d.com/Post/EN/31710108/1/31710109#31710109 If it's related to application translocation then I posted in that thread how to fix it. TL;DR Solutions are: Option 1 In Mac OS X 10.13 (or 10.12, I'm not sure), Apple removed the ability for Gatekeeper to allow Apps downloaded from anywhere to be run as an option, so whereas the available options in "Security & Privacy" system preferences pane used to be: Allow apps downloaded from: * App Store * App Store and identified developers * Anywhere the options are now restricted: * App Store * App Store and identified developers Using Gatekeeper on the command line and executing: > sudo spctl --master-disable will add the "Anywhere" option back into the "Security & Privacy" preferences pane and select it as the default option. Use at your own risk of course and beware where you download apps from! Option 2 Use the terminal to delete the quarantine attribute: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine path/to/4D.app Use either option at your own risk (or the clients!) and consequently beware where you download apps from!

Sounds like the GateKeeper behavior on Mac when it’s not installed with a signed DMG or application.

He's on Mac OS 10.2.6 and the version is 17.3. Any suggestions on what to look for?
