You can find info on both of those here: So I would suggest using either the Inkscape IRC channel, or possibly User mailing list (if you want to go so far as subscribing to the mailing list). Unfortunately we don't have any advanced Mac users, who visit on a regular basis.
But we might as well eliminate (rule out) that much. I'm not a Mac user, so I've never really even read that FAQ. Is it possibly something like that? I'd appreciate some imaginative and/or experienced advice.Īahh, ok. to locate and remove all traces of a program before re-attempting install if it failed, because a program drops little components all over. I remember, in a former life as a Windows user I would have to go into the Registry etc.
Perhaps the botched install left things in the computer that are causing the failure, if you know what I mean. I'm definitely no computer wiz but I wonder if the reason none of these things are working for me MIGHT be because of the failed install.
I threw out the program and downloaded it all over again, nothing,. I saw someone in a forum said to open package contents>MacOS> Inkscape and start in Terminal, didn't help,. I saw someone in a forum said they reverted back to XQuartz 2.7.9 and then it worked, but not for me,. Pasteboard: Enable syncing Update CLIPBOARD. I know about the XQuartz preferences and checked them as instructed on the install page (Input: Enable key equiv. I know about the security setting gateway "allow apps downloaded from Anywhere",. When I double-click the app icon all that happens is the usual change of focus one sees when starting any app, then it says "Inkscape" in the top left of the screen (where the name of a program in use would normally be), and after 2-5 seconds it fails and I am back in Finder as if I'd never tried to start the program. It's possible Inkscape was trying to run for the first time during this mishap, or maybe the mishap has nothing to do with my problem, but it's worth noting.Īnyway NOTHING I do since then will allow the program to start. confusion, the installation got interrupted. I started the app and waited for the prompt to direct me to the XQuartz program or whatever it was the installation page said to do.Īnd HERE is where it went wrong. I opened the Inkscape installer packet and dragged the application into the Applications folder. However I saw that there's a XQuartz 2.7.11 so I downloaded and installed that first. 
I was already running XQuartz 2.7.9 because I use Finale, so that stuff didn't mystify me at all. I downloaded Inkscape 0.92.2 (Mac installer - I don't understand those "builder" installer things). Please help me! I just learned of Inkscape and really need to use it.
