Launch at Login Not working #59

Closed unexpectedreboot88 closed 1 year ago

unexpectedreboot88 commented 1 year ago

I installed Ejectify 1.2.1 on my M1 Mac mini today. It's a fresh copy of macOS Ventura 13.4. Despite clicking the "launch at login" option in the menu, Ejectify will not launch on login no matter what I try. Oddly, when I installed it on my MacBook running 13.4, I can't recreate the issue.

On my Mac mini, Ejectify shows up in the "allow in background section" of System Settings. If there's anything I can do to help (i.e. gather logs, etc.), please let me know.

Thank you, Jacob

Is the app copied to your Applications folder?

Yes, it is in the applications folder. On May 22, 2023, at 6:22 AM, Niels Mouthaan @.***> wrote: Is the app copied to your Applications folder?

Very weird. Can you manually mark the app to be opened at launch?

I tried to add Ejectify to the Open at Login section by clicking the + button, then browsing to the Applications folder and selecting the app. Once I select Ejectify and click Open, the add application search window disappears and takes me back to the Open at Login list that is still empty.

Oddly, I was about to work around the problem by temporarily adding Ejectify to the dock, right-clicking it, going to Options, then checking the option to Open at Login. This, in turn, added Ejectify to the Open at Login section of Login Items in System Settings. I removed Ejectify from the dock and it continues to open on login.

Thank you for your quick response!
