Anyone else have 14.3.3 crashing on macOS?

Post by Wavelength »

All,
I have a MacBook Pro 15 i9x6, 1TB SSD, 32G memory and 10.14.4 and now 10.14.5

I was debugging last week and if I didn't save all before doing a debug the xTime would crash right away.

I'm not having any problems on either of my Macs, but I have disabled SIP because it was causing problems with xflash on earlier versions of xTimeComposer which I still need to use. It's maybe worth disabling SIP to see if that resolves the problem - not an ideal solutions, but might prove or disprove the cause.

Redeye,
Yes I am having flash issues as well. Flash works command line in the terminal, but that is a little cumbersome.
I hate to sound stupid but what is SIP?
Thanks,

System Integrity Protection. It's generally a good idea, but XMOS tools don't seem to play very nicely with it enabled. More info here :
