ARM version not working On Mac M1 #115

Closed OLH21 closed 2 months ago

OLH21 commented 3 months ago

X86 is ok with right click open and Rosetta insdtalled but the ARM files does not execute , says it is damaged even with right click open . anyone else with the same issue ?

doxgt commented 3 months ago

Can folks please inform us here whether the app version is working on Mac M1, perhaps in the coming days? That way I can let family members who use MacBooks know. It saves me from having to test it at their places.

In addition, we can assume that the web interface, https://whispering.bradenwong.com, works on Safari the same way it works on other browsers on Windows?

Exactly the same issue here on my MacBook M1 Pro.

OLH21 commented 3 months ago

Still not working on the 4.21/4.3 new versions ... ( right click and open still return an error)

Hey guys, sorry for the delayed response!

@doxgt yes, we can assume that the web interface should work on Safari similarly on other Operating Systems. Can confirm it works on chrome and safari on MacOS, and although unfortunately I don't have a Windows laptop to test it, browser APIs are stable—it's desktop APIs that are harder to test!

Unfortunately, I don't have an Apple Silicon Mac yet, but could you guys send me the exact error message that you're getting and more steps for reproduction?

It seems like the key word is "damaged." I've been looking online and some extra keywords to know what to search for would be very helpful!

I downloaded Whispering version 4.5.1 (aarch64.dmg) - Macbook M1 Pro, 16 Gigabyte

After downloading, I navigated to the Applications folder and right-clicked on Whispering, chosing "open". Upon doing so, a message appeared:

'“Whispering” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Bin.'

The options presented were "Move to Bin" on the left button and "Cancel" on the right button. I selected "Cancel."

I then right-clicked to open the app again from the Applications folder.

Normally, there would now be a new option to open the app despite the warning.

However, I still only have the options "Move to Bin" or "Cancel."

OLH21 commented 2 months ago

Problem is the way apple handle unauthorised app is the same as the damaged files one with the same message . But normally you can open unsigned app with right click open. So it might be a real problem with the ARM version and not code signatures. But just in case :

Hello everyone, and thank you all for the steps for retracing this bug! And thank you for the images and reproduction steps.

I just got an Apple Silicon Mac today and tested it on my own machine and finally found the fix. For all of you, please run the following command in the terminal:

xattr -cr /Applications/Whispering.app

This was what enabled me to run the application and it works on all subsequent times. I've added it to the README and will be closing this issue now! Thank you guys again.
