Problems with Lyx 2.07/2.07,1/2.1 Beta on OS X Mavericks

Post by aaderca »

I am using a late 2008 Macbook Pro with Mavericks. Lyx has been running successfully on all previous versions of OS X without any problems. 2.0.7, 2.0.7.1, 2.1 beta- all cause application to hang. Reverting to 2.0.6 solves the problem. Anybody else had this problem ?

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

I'm seen a lot of issues with OS X and the newer versions of LyX. I think this has to do with Carbon vs. Cocoa building. There are disadvantages to either way. My suggestion is to either send an email to lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org describing the problem (give as many details as possible).
