Hi. Installed Audacity 2.2.2 using the .dmg, but it never launches on my iMac, just immediately quits. I’ve also tried the current alpha, as well as the previous version but with the same result.
I’m using macOS 10.13.6, and the iMac is an i5 from 2017 if that makes any difference.
I’ve got Audacity running fine on my 2015 Macbook Pro.
I’ve tried the suggestions in this thread:
https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/fix-for-audacity-2-1-1-not-launching/39157/1
But unfortunately they didn’t help.
Not sure, but the problem could be that my entire user folder is located on an external SSD, connected with USB 3.1 via the thunderbolt port. This has never given me any problem with any other program though, but it’s the only thing I can think of that might make my setup different from most other users.
So to summarise I got the macOS system and Audacity (as well as every other program) installed on the built-in 250GB SSD. And I have my user folder located on an external SSD drive.
I have of course tried installing Audacity on the external drive as well (/users/myusername/Applications/). But that didn’t work either.
Just a guess. Not sure that it’s related at all
Any help would be appreciated
