Hi Roger,
Thanks for reporting this and sending the crash report.
It looks like the RtMidi framework, that we use for cross-platform MIDI support, is unhappy. We're using quite an old version of RtMidi so hopefully a newer version is OK with Mavericks.
I don't have access to a Mavericks machine to test on but if I build with a newer version I'll let you know.

Thank you! I got this problem while trying to send MIDI from my Arduino into Ableton Live. Now that I have selected Driver IAC Bus 1 the App works (it crashes if I try to change it again). But I have another problem that I don't know if it's coming from the app: When send midi notes, it works perfect, but when I send Midi CC, then Ableton Live overflows. Does anybody else having this problem?
Thank you!
There are issues reporting errors in Hairless Bridge when sending CC messages: https://github.com/projectgus/hairless-midiserial/issues/16
Does that sound familiar, or is this something else? Can you be more specific about what happens in Ableton Live?
I solved the Midi CC problem.
It was the Ableton Live config. You have to disable the MIDI port output and disable the MIDI clock sync.
It's explained here.

This is a snapshot of my Ableton config now. I can send MIDI notes and use them like Midi CC so the same buttons can be used as a keyboard or a launchapad.

If you want I can test new alpha or beta versions of hairless-midiserial in Mavericks and send crash logs, so I can help with the app development.
Thank you for your help!
Thanks rogervila, that's great news.
I think the issue then is that Hairless Bridge is crashing when it should just print the error "RtMidiOut::initialize: error creating OS-X MIDI client object." (which is the underlying RtMidi error we're currently failing to handle).
I'm in the process of updating Hairless Bridge anyhow with the latest libraries, and trying to resolve some of these other issues. I'll post again if/when I have a version for testing, thanks very much for the offer.

The app crahses on Mavericks. This is the log.
I hope it helps!
