February 19, 2020 - reworked and much improved Mac software v3.6.4 is now available. The new installation is a simple 18 MB download and doesn't require separate third-party components that were causing issues in the older releases. PRO version is available upon request and via built-in software update option after Feb 24, 2020.
If you are on OS X El Capitan or newer macOS, you will need to temporarily disable the new OS "rootless" mode before installing required Mono Framework and X11 as follows:
- Restart your Mac and hold down Command + R keys on the keyboard while booting to enable recovery mode. Keep holding these keys until you see the macOS Utilities window similar to the sreenshot above.
- Once booted in recovery mode, navigate to Utilities > Terminal in the top menu as per the screenshot.
- Enter csrutil disable in the terminal window and hit the return key on your keyboard.
- Restart your Mac again via the Apple menu -> Restart.
- Install Mono Framework and X11 as described in readme.txt (supplied with the Mac download) and reboot.
- Re-enable "rootless" mode by going through steps 1 to 4 and entering csrutil enable in the terminal window in step 3.
- Double check that SpotEditor app was copied outside of the extracted zip folder and if not, copy it to your desktop for a example. If it doesn't start on the first attempt from your desktop, please check System Preferences->Security & Privacy->General tab to see if it's locked there and unlock if so.
