I have installed Glyphs 2.6.6. in 2020 on my Mac. Since I’ve updated my Mac OS to Ventura (13+), Glyphs keeps crashing whenever I try to open it. Restarting my Mac and migrating the app on another Mac doesn’t solve the problem, I can’t open Glyphs anymore.
I tried already and downgraded my Python version to 2.7 and restarted my Mac, no change. App crashes instantly on start.
Delete your Application Support/Glyphs folder. And try again.
Nothing. Glyphs still crashes on start.
Can you send the crash report. The one that comes up directly after the crash. Copy paste the top part of that report here.
Here is my crash report (Translated report on top):
It seems like the system failed to load the Python library (which is intalled). The File /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python
is on my mac, although the crash report tells me “no such file”.
