[Nixtar]

Hi All - Checking with Support on this topic, it is known and under review by the Development team. We should have an update out shortly to help resolve this concern!

any fix for this guys? still waiting on support response!

AT5 is also crashing on Big Sur (11.6.1) on a m1 mac mini.
Probably due to this same security update I guess...
I creaated a support ticket, but does anyone have any news on the topic?

AmpliTube 5 works great here on M1 (but Monterey). I'm sure IK Support can get you up and running as your issue with Big Sur isn't going to be related to the Catalina security update that broke some programs (including ours) and is being worked on.

Thanks for your feedback Peter. I'm waiting for support's answer.
cheers

Thanks for your feedback Peter. I'm waiting for support's answer.
cheers

I also sent a note in about the Big Sur and M1 FAQ because I believe at least one and perhaps both could use a refresher

Ok, I've found the issue.
MacOS "Documents" folder access wasn't allowed for Ableton Live (woah, these recent macOS are full of security restrictions all over!).
After giving access to this folder to Live both AT4 and AT5 are now running fine.

FWIW, Syntronik and Syntronik2 worked ok with 2021-007 10.15.7 security patch on Catalina 10.15.7 (on late 2012 i7 mini server). Syntronik2 was installed after the security patch, and Syntronik updated/reinstalled.

I have the same problem. I'm going to reinstall Catalina 10.15.7, I hope it'll works for me! Thank you!! [mod redacted - unnecessary and check viewtopic.php?f=10&t=19505 for information about what to do when you feel your ticket hasn't been handled to your satisfaction]

Sampletank 4 now working since update 4.1.5. Thanks.
At5 still not working

This is very frustrating. Have submitted my own ticket to IK. Has anyone has any success without having to undo the Catalina update?

[rogercardoso12]

Has anyone managed to solve it without having to reinstall Catalina?

I guess the question of the day is whether the newly updated Amplitube 5.3.0 fixes the issue with the Catalina security update. Do we have an answer to this yet?

[Cochenco]

no, in my case. Keep giving me the same problem, it closes quickly.
I´m losing hope that they will help us to solve it, without having to go back to the previous Catalina software compromising the security of the computer. In my opinion, after the time that has elapsed, it does not seem serious at all.

Any word as of late if it is safe to upgrade?
I have AT5 ver 5.3.0 (21L09) installed and running with no issues as plugin and stand alone.
My system is a Mac mini Late 2012
Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 2.6 GHz
16 GB memory
1.25 TB Fusion Drive
macOS Catalina 10.15.7 (19H1419)
Security Update 2021-006

Amplitube 5.3 still crashes (pool thread opengl flush appears to abort (?)) with the 007 security patch on my late 2012 i7 mini runninng Catalina 10.15.7
