Cookie 5.8.5 does not launch after macOS v10.13.6 update

Katie

Cookie 5.8.5 no longer opens after updating to macOS v10.13.6 (High Sierra). Pop window alert states:
The application “Cookie 5” can’t be opened.

Moreover, the app icon is a generic one.
Please fix this!

Try restarting your computer, and maybe also try re-downloading via the “Purchases” tab in the Mac App Store.

I restarted many times. I tried uninstaller, cache cleaners and nothing. I even tried your latest trial version after uninstalling. Even your trial .dmg does not have a proper icon (see attachment) which leads me to believe that there might be issues with permissions, code signatures, etc.

[attachment=103]I tried EVERYTHING. I am a pretty knowledgable user and have to conclude that it is a app issue.

If this was an app issue, I would have been flooded with emails last week when macOS10.13.6 was released.

I can’t 100% verify this as I’m away from my computer right now. But I am “quite” certain that my dev machine is running 10.13.6 and I havnt seen any issues like this.

there must be something unique to your computer.

The default icon in the .dmg file is odd though? Have you tried a fresh download of the trial version, and has this happened with any other apps?

Russell,
After trying sooooo many things, the only way Cookie 5 launches is via Terminal app by double clicking the executable inside the MacOS folder. But once you quite Terminal, Cookie quits as we’ll.
