Firecontrol will not start on Mac Sonoma

[irate4x4]

This is a new-to-me Crossfire Pro with THC.I have a MacBook Pro and I cannot get Firecontrol (any versions in the download section) to launch. Even did the silly monkey tricks to trust the install & app run.

I am admin on the MacBook, so the app should be launching as such.

When launching the icon appears for about 10 sec then goes away.

No errors in the logs. Have uninstalled and reinstalled.

I’ve read that the laptop needs to be connected to the box on the table, and it is. I see a green LED on the USB board and a red on the THC chip. I cannot see the table connected in Finder so I’m not 100% it’s being recognized. The USB cable is a brand new USB-C to USB-B cable.

Not sure if it matters at this most basic point, but I have a Hypertherm 45xp connected to the table via raw voltage pigtails to the VIM and box and PV out connected to the THC port on the table’s box.

Any thoughts, other than getting a PC, would be appreciated.

FWIW, I borrowed my wife’s 2015 MacBook Pro running Monterey 12.6 and installed Firecontrol 21.1.5 and it fired right up and I can move the torch around on the table. Unfortunately this Mac is dedicated to her laser engraver so it won’t last on my table lol

That happened to someone just 3 or 4 days ago on a PC. He uninstalled/deleted the folder and re-installed and it worked. He had downloaded an older version. It sounds like you got the newest version but who knows what the bits and bytes might have done. Make sure you are getting the current one:

Appreciate it @ChelanJim, thats where I got the 21.1.5 currently installed.

I got a 2nd cord to rule that out, still cannot get Firecontrol to launch on Sonoma.

@langmuir-reilly and thoughts or others with this issue?
