Not working on MacOs #405

Hi Alessandro! You've created such an amazing plugin! Thank you! I wanted to drop a quick question. I've installed it on a windows laptop and it works perfectly fine. But when I use your Mac installation files, the process goes smoothly, with no errors, but in the end the "Batch image manipulation" option just doesn't appear in the File menu. I'm using an M1 Mac, so maybe the problem lies there. Do you have any idea? I would be tremendously greatful if you could help.

Same issue on an Intel MacBook Pro; installation has no errors, I allow Bimp to open from the system security settings, but no matter how many times I restart Gimp, it never appears in the File menu.

Versions:

I have a similar issue. MacOS Ventura 13.1. Latest GIMP. I installed BIMP a few days ago and it worked fine. Today, it said there was an error. I tried to reinstall it. It doesn't appear under the File menu. I deleted the BIMP folder from /Users/rphillip/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10 and tried again. This is what Terminal reported: Last login: Wed May 15 10:15:39 on console /Applications/gimp-plugin-bimp_macos/install ; exit; rphillip@MacBook-Air ~ % /Applications/gimp-plugin-bimp_macos/install ; exit; mkdir: /Users/rphillip/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins: File exists BIMP is installed. You can close the program.

I went to Sytem Settings and allowed the download. I got macOS cannot verify the developer of “bimp”. Are you sure you want to open it? and clicked OK. Restarted GIMP. Nothing appears under the file menu... Confused, Rob

I was trying to install BIMP on an ARM macbook but failed unfortunately. I think that it should work for x_86 macbooks, so I'll still share my approach. Running the bimp executable in Users/<NAME>/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins/bimb/, I got the error that /Applications/GIMP-2.10.app/Contents/Resources/lib/libgimpui-2.0.0.dylib doesn't exist. My application was however named GIMP.app, so I renamed it to GIMP-2.10.app instead. Now when trying to run the bimb executable, I get that it find the file, but incompatible architecture (have 'arm64', need 'x_86_64)

I'm also having this problem. Batch Image Manipulation just won't show up in the file menu

That last error is saying you installed the M1 version on an Intel Mac

Same issues on macOS Sonoma 14.5 on a Macbook Pro M1 and GIMP 2.10.32. Followed the steps of the readme.txt ("Allow Anyway" to unlock the BIMP executable, etc), but the plugin does not show up in the "File" menu.

In case it is helpful, as pointed out in this Reddit thread, a workaround is to downgrade to version 2.10.22, and then the menu option appear and is operational. I just tested it with macOS Sonoma 14.6.1 on an Apple M1 processor. Specifically, I downloaded gimp-2.10.22-x86_64-3.dmg, which works fine.
