OS X El Capitan: Working & Not Working Apps

[ErikGrim]

Otomatic doesn't work. Really screwy interface when you go into show settings, and doesn't download any new episodes even when it says it's active.

Adobe CC 2015 (after yesterday's update)

Photoshop CC 2015 works
Illustrator CC 2015 works
InDesign CC 2015 does NOT work. It crashes immediately throwing an error.


UPDATE:
I simply reinstalled InDesign via the Creative Cloud app... and it works... just like all the others... I suspect an outdated plug in caused this issue.

 

[Stefdar]

inDesign works perfectly, as all the CC 2015 apps.

 

[macintoshmac]

Was inDesign working fine before this update?

 

[ErikGrim]

OK. So Otomatic is apparently downloading now.

Anyone else getting this error when trying to FaceTime someone?

Yeah I've got this too. Any ideas how to resolve?

Adobe CC 2015 (after yesterday's update)

Photoshop CC 2015 works
Illustrator CC 2015 works
InDesign CC 2015 does NOT work. It crashes immediately throwing an error. View attachment 561721

I was wondering - do you know if the latest Premiere Pro works at all? Thanks!

I got a different error when trying to call someone; worried I was irritating them with lots of missed calls, I tried testing by calling myself and that generates the above error.

When calling other people I get "Caller Account Needs Update" but if they ring me it works fine.

Any fix with this? I have noticed that this bug only takes place with certain contacts which is weird.

Photoshop 2015 working. On the other hand Lightroom 2015 is not.

Has anyone had success opening GIMP in OS X 10.11? Every time I try opening it and it gets to searching for fonts I get a new color wheel I haven't seen before and the program is non responsive when I look at it in Force Quit.

 

[emorana87]

Microsoft Office 2016 Previews are working
IntelliJ14 working
Eclipse working
Coda 2.5.1 working
gfxCardStatus working
gimp working

Maxthon not working
GPGMail getting disabled

I've also been having some issues with home-brew (rootless disabled, chown /usr/local /usr/Cellar), specifically cmake, though I'm not convinced this is a capitan issue (trying to install ldc llvm front-end).

GIMP has worked for you? Did it take a long time to get through the finding fonts part of the load process?

Working

gfxCardStatus

Sort of Working

smcFanControl <---Displays temp and fan speed but is not allowing me to change fan speeds

Outlook 15.3 for me doesn't work... Keeps asking to activate when it already is activated

Edit: Newest update is 15.6, might just see if this will fix anything.
Double Edit: Nope. Still asking to Activate.

Can't get Pandapow VPN (2.3.7) to work.
Always disconnects after a few seconds. Works fine on Yosemite.

Skim is not working.

Why not boot into Recovery mode, turn off SIP under utilities, reboot, do what you need to do, and then turn it back on. Much cleaner than the sudo route, in my opinion.

Anyhow, here's a short script for that:

#!/bin/bash

ME=`basename $0`
IS=$(nvram boot-args | awk '{ print $2 }' | grep rootless | cut -d= -f2)

if [ $# -lt 1 ]; then
  if [ "$IS" == "1" ]; then
    echo "Rootless mode currently active. Use $ME 0 to deactivate."
  else
    echo "rootless mode currently inactive. Use $ME 1 to activate."
  fi
  exit
fi

if [ "$1" == "0" ]; then
  if [ "$IS" == "1" ]; then
    sudo nvram boot-args="rootless=0";
    echo "Rootless mode deactivated. Reboot to apply.";
  else
    echo "Rootless mode already inactive. Nothing changed.";
  fi
else
  if [ "$IS" == "0" ]; then
    sudo nvram boot-args="rootless=1";
    echo "Rootless mode activated. Reboot to apply.";
  else
    echo "Rootless mode already active. Nothing changed.";
  fi
fi

The path to latexpdf and latexmf get cut when you upgrade to El Capitan. You have to rebuild the link with ln -s in terminal, or you can just add the path to whatever Latex frontend you're compiling from. In SublimeText 3, for example, I just put the following as one of the paths in LatexTools under SublimeText -> Preference -> Package Settings -> Latex Tools -> Settings - User:

/Library/TeX/Distributions/.DefaultTeX/Contents/Programs/texbin

i.e.:

"osx": {
// Path used when invoking tex & friends; MUST include $PATH
"texpath" : "$PATH:/usr/texbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/local/bin:/Library/TeX/Distributions/.DefaultTeX/Contents/Programs/texbin"
// Path to PDF viewer, if needed
// TODO think about it. Also, maybe configure it here!
},

On my end, the symlink in /usr/ pointing to /usr/texbin was missing. I don't really remember, but maybe I removed /usr/texbin to some other location after upgrading to Yosemite, in order to have future upgrades run faster. Anyway, that said, if you've any content in /usr that's not there by default, check it out. Adding the symlink required disabling rootless.

Regarding: Parallels Bootcamp partition (Other VM's work fine)

How does it not work? This is the one thing preventing me from installing on my daily driver rMBP.

Thanks.

All my data people: Stata 13 is running fine on El Cap.

Anyone know if SSD Fan Control works?

 

[fessura]

Skim is not working.

The one app that might make me switch back to Yosemite.

Found PDF Reader Pro Free in the AppStore; a clone of Skim and it works great.

I've just updated Outlook Preview to the latest version (15.11) and the folder pane is now blank (although I can click blindly inside the pane and change the current folder).

And that calls for this, of course

So you could preview your previews...

LOL!!!!!ヾ(＠＾▽＾＠)ﾉ°ﾟ°｡｡

 

[bobbytomorow]

Anyone know if SSD Fan Control works?

Do you mean "SMC" fan control? If so, not properly. It displays the temp and fan speed but does not let me change the fan speeds.

No it's called 'SSD Fan Control', used when putting an unofficial SSD into a mac device to keep the fans from running at full speed.

Edit: Seems to work just fine. Just tested.

LOTRO (Lord Of The Rings Online) is working fine with DP1.
