The same issue with latest security update on Catalina. This probably occurs due to incompatible dlyb. dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/mbedtls@2/lib/libmbedcrypto.7.dylib

As I see, this project has been abandoned. Somebody can rebuild this app with new binaries/libraries. Actually, this app is just GUI over shell scripts and CLI tools.

For now, everybody can update binaries for himself. As a simplest way, install ss-local and v2ray plugin

brew install shadowsocks-libev v2ray-plugin
#Then copy binaries to the App
cp -f /usr/local/opt/shadowsocks-libev/bin/ss-local  /Applications/ShadowsocksX-NG.app/Contents/Resources/ss-local
cp -f /usr/local/opt/v2ray/bin/v2ray  /Applications/ShadowsocksX-NG.app/Contents/Resources/v2ray-plugin
#And remove quarantine attribute to allow run binary
sudo xattr -d com.apple.quarantine '/Applications/ShadowsocksX-NG.app/Contents/Resources/v2ray-plugin'

Restart ShadowsocksX-NG and everything should work.

Restart ShadowsocksX-NG and everything should work.

参考这个方法，只不过把 下面的命令 cp -f /usr/local/opt/v2ray/bin/v2ray /Applications/ShadowsocksX-NG.app/Contents/Resources/v2ray-plugin 替换为： cp -f /usr/local/opt/v2ray-plugin/bin/v2ray-plugin /Users/{你得用户名}/Library/Application\ Support/ShadowsocksX-NG/plugins 就可以了，其实就是替换一下mac的shadowsocket-ng自带的v2ray-plugin，

Somehow, I found a starnge way to solve this problem. This approach needs another proxy tool called ClashX, which is available on Github too. Open ClashX before open SS, then close clashX or don't, the SS client should work as expected now.

Doesn't work for me on : Macbook pro M1, MacOS Monterey Anyone else having issues?!

[abbassix]

cp: /usr/local/opt/v2ray/bin/v2ray: No such file or directory

替换为：

就可以了，其实就是替换 ShadowsocksX-NG 自带的 v2ray-plugin

It works! Thanks!

@azhinu Really appreciate for your help. It's my fault that I should "reply" to another comment. Thanks again.
