Affinity Designer 2 installs but does not start on MacBook pro

[Walda57]

Hi everybody,

I used Affinity 1 with great fun and Version 2 is also running well. There are no problems on my different machines (Mac, MacBook pro and iPad). They all work, only Designer 2 on my MacBook pro (2018, Ventura 13.1, i5) starts (you can see the graphics of version 2.0.3) but then stops and the message appears that an unexpected error occurred. Photo and Publisher start without any problem. Even uninstalling all files and install them new didn't help. Also to download the file again and install it didn't help. I found no problems in the preferences (safety etc.). Is there any idea what the reason could be?

Look for any possible ADe v2 generated crash reports, which might tell/give some hints for crashings ...

On Macs you can (beside the MacOS own Console.app) also use some other third party tools for looking after ADe crash reports ...

• Diagnostics
• Console

I opened the crash report on ADe2. Who will be the recipient? I'm not as skilled with to read them as needed.

Hope, a pdf works too? Otherwise, see the txt-file.
