Jamtaba Doesn't work on Mac OS anymore

[one-agnostik]

I'm on the latest Sonoma 14.5, Mac mini m1, and when I run Jamtaba standalone (after getting through the security permissions) it will only open once. If I close the app and reopen, attempting to open the app does nothing.

I have also tried to use the au plugin for Ableton and a similar thing happens. I can load an instance of the plugin on the project however when I save the project and then go to reopen, the plugin will not load, the vst gui is simply a black box and it only serves to stop the sound. If I remove the plugin an put a new instance on, I get an eternal beachball until I have to force quit ableton.

I have tried restarting, trashing the teste.jamtaba preference folder, all to no avail.

As such, at the moment, Jamtaba seems to not work with Mac OSX

Ok follow up from this at least as far as the au is concerned.. the au is not opening in Ableton or Reaper because of the Mac security changes (SIP). Although I went to security and privacy and overode it, this doesn't actually work for plugins becuase they are run from within another program.. here is the fix...

You have manually remove the "quarantine" status from the plugin that OSX assigns because it comes from an unauthorised developer.

To do this open a terminal window located in your plugins > components and type the following:

sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine JamTaba.component

That should tell osx it is safe an then the AU will work.

Thanks for posting. Hopefully someone can do a patch for the install instructions for MacOS.

Unfortunately, I doubt there will be anything the development team can do - getting signed software into AppleStore is not cheap.

Sadly this only got it to work in certain situations. The Standalone is still not opening, and the AU will open on a completely new Ableton project but not on a project in which I already have tracks and Vsts.. The AU works fine in Reaper for some reason.
