Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
To get the Mac Specs, go to the Apple symbol in the upper left corner, and select "About This Mac"... There is an overview screen with information, and you can select "System Report..." for additional information.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
Sometimes Check & Repair can take a while, some folks have reported an hour or more in rare cases. It has always been a second or two for me. - Usually when apps close unexpectedly like that, your Mac will generate a Crash Report and show it on screen. (and give you the option to relaunch the app or give up) Does this not happen? If not, after such a crash, you can open Console.app and try to see if there are any Crash Reports for GnuCash. If you find one (or more most likely) then open a bug report at bugs.gnucash.org describing the issue in as much detail as possible. (specific steps to reproduce the crash) Then attach the latest Crash Report to the bug report. One of the developers will see it and investigate the cause. No guarantees on how soon they'll do so, or how fast they can fix it, but I've been very impressed with their response in the past. The aren't fond of bugs. They like crashes even less. Attaching the TraceFile might help too, as well as copy/pasting or attaching any output you get when running from the Terminal.app - And yes, Terminal is an app like a DOS screen. You can find it in Launchpad as Terminal.app. Instructions for running GnuCash from the terminal can be found on the GnuCash wiki, as are instructions for finding the TraceFile. - Since you reported that it was working in one version, but you had problems after the update/move, be sure to note the respective versions and what MacOS version you were running with each.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
Hmm... First, since you upgraded, if you didn't already do so, run: Actions > Check & Repair > Check & Repair All If something is off with the underlying data, it could be wrecking havoc with report code as that seems to be the area at issue. Run from the Terminal to see if there is any useful output, and also see the Wiki about obtaining a TraceFile. There may be some errors reported in either of those that could shed light on what's going wrong.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
While I agree that 4.01, 4.02, ... 4.10, 4.11, 4.12 would be more rational, in fact it is traditional or at least extremely common in version numbering to use: 4.1, 4.2,... 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12 etc. In fact, 4.01 would have different implications about the nature of the release than 4.1. 4.01 would likely be a bug fix on 4.0 rather than a new release with more major changes.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
This brings up a good point; perhaps GnuCash should always use two-digit numbering; instead of 4.1, 4.2,... 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, use 4.01, 4.02,... and so on.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
That's normal. You are 'installing' it, correct? That is, opening the .dmg you downloaded, then dragging and dropping the GnuCash icon to your /Applications folder, then running it from /Applications or via Launchpad or your Dock. (you will likely have to open it twice, the first time is just to tell Gatekeeper the app is safe, after that it should take only one-click to launch) Since you were already using GnuCash on your Mac, I could guess you did so, but it doesn't hurt to ask and verify.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
Where did you download GnuCash from? The correct location is gnucash.org. It is not in the App Store.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report
ph, open your gnucash file and click on "Help" then "about" to find the version you have installed. 4.12 is the most recent release and you can find it at gnucash.org.

Re: [GNC] can't create a transaction report

[GNC] can't create a transaction report
hi all i'm using gnu cash 4.2 on my mac ventura 13.0, and can't create a transaction report (which i've done many times before today). i'm trying to create a report for 2021. i start the process (reports, transaction reports) then go into options to select accounts, type of report, date etc.). when i hit any of those options the transaction blinks out. or it takes 1 selection but not all. and the general accounts page option disappears too. i've tried quitting gnucash, starting over (it opens with bad transaction report options rather than accounts). i've tried restarting my mac and completing shutting it down and starting over. what am i missing? any help appreciated. thanks. ph ~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~:~: writer ~:~ photographer ~:~ book designer resident manager paulahendricks.com ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
