Loop Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 I opened up my Flirc app today & got an alert saying there was an upgrade to the app. I clicked to download and upgrade. The process finished & I got a dialog saying 'Upgrade and relaunch' or something like that. Then the OSX crash log appeared, I tried reopening but it did the same thing. I thought it must have been a bad download, so I went to the website & downloaded the OSX dmg image from there. Same result. :o I looked around on the site to see if I could find a download area where I could get the previous version - but I couldn't find it anywhere. A link to 'previous versions' from the downloads page would've been nice!! :rolleyes: Fortunately I found that I still had my old 0.98 version in my downloads folder, so I reinstalled that and can program my remote now. I'm using OSX 10.6.8 64bit (I tried opening the Flirc app as 32bit but it had the same result) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Hey, you caught me in the middle of trying to post an update, could I trouble you to try again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted December 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Hey Jason, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I'm afraid it still does the same thing :-( Here is a copy of the crash log that pops up, if that helps. http://pastebin.com/y7sFFwvm Nice one on updating the download page to show the previous working version though!

jason Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 I released an update, could you guys let me know if that worked? Until I get a machine running the previous OSX, I can't know for certain, but I had a mistake that was fairly obvious and I'm nearly certain this will fix it. Please let me know.

Loop Posted December 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Sorry to report I get the exact same behavior - crash on launch of the app. I downloaded the 1.0.4 version from the site too - just in case it was an issue with the update process. Crash log at link below http://pastebin.com/R0iHEAGi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 I'm going to get 10.7 and 10.6. Seems to be fine on 10.8. I'll get to the bottom of this after I reproduce it. Could I trouble you to launch the app through the terminal: ./Flirc.app/Contents/MacOS/Flirc This will spit out a bunch of logging information. Thanks so much for all the help Loop.

Loop Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Hey Jason, I tried pasting what you put above into Terminal but it didn't work - I just got 'No such file or directory' returned I'm not familiar with Unix commands but Googled this command 'open -a /Applications/Flirc.app/Contents/MacOS/Flirc' and used that instead I'm afraid I got the same looking log come up in a window titled 'Flirc quit unexpectedly' The log is at the following link http://pastebin.com/FktWuX42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Okay, how about just doing the following in the terminal: /Applications/Flirc.app/Contents/MacOS/Flirc I'm still trying to get the previous versions... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 If I do that I just get 'Illegal instruction' :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jww Posted December 19, 2013 Report Share Posted December 19, 2013 I want to note that I'm seeing exactly the same behavior described here in OS X 10.7.5. I would be willing to try new builds for OS X as needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 So sorry guys, I've been working so hard on updates and bug fixes. I finally got this one. v1.1.3 is fixed. Backwards compatible from 10.5 and up. Booya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted January 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 So sorry guys, I've been working so hard on updates and bug fixes. I finally got this one. v1.1.3 is fixed. Backwards compatible from 10.5 and up. Booya Jason, I'm so sorry I haven't had a chance to test this out recently. I downloaded the latest version from the site but I'm still getting a crash on launch of the Flirc app v1.1.5 If I return to version 0.98 it works fine. I'm running 10.6.8 32bit on an intel Macbook Pro A window appears saying "Flirc has unexpectedly quit" the details of the crash log are at the link below. http://pastebin.com/J6XFLZGY I really hope that helps. Does the Flirc unit need to be plugged in on boot (I always plug it in after)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Jason, I set up an external drive running 10.7.5 and booted from that. Installed 1.2.2 and it worked perfectly. I wanted to try out the newer firmware 2.3 and the inter-key delay settings for my Harmony remote (which is still double pressing a lot!) Now when I go back to running 10.6.8 + Flirc v2.3 with the older 0.98 GUI is gets stuck in DFU mode. Is that normal - is it possible to program a Flirc with v2.3 firmware using the older GUI v0.98? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 I don't think it should be going into DFU, however, I would say that it's not surprising. Do all your pairing in your other machine, then just use it with your paired remote on 10.6.8. In other words, delete the app on 10.6. Apple makes it impossible to try older releases. My 10.7 was working, after the 10.9.1 it stopped working. I can't even get into the 10.6 installer. I pretty much have to buy an old computer, it's ridiculous. I'm really sorry about that.
