Freezing issue with Macbook Air M1

Post by meanioni »

Hi using Office NX on a Mac running Sequoia 15.1

Was working fine, but when going into Textmaker, the application freezes and sometimes touches get a spinning wheel. You can't interact with the app as it appears frozen and in the launch bar it says application has stopped responding. However, if you leave it for a minute or two, eventually it does respond and behave normally, but then crashes.

Extract from Mac crash diagnostics:

Event: hang
Duration: 39.93s
Duration Sampled: 4.30s (process was unresponsive for 36 seconds before sampling)
Steps: 43 (100ms sampling interval)

Just loaded planmaker and had a similar experience, although it recovered quicker (15-20 seconds) and has not crashed yet.

Thank you for sharing your issue with us. To better understand the problem and assist you more effectively, could you please clarify the following:

1. Does the app freeze intermittently, or does it freeze every time you launch it?
2. Does the freezing occur when starting the app with a blank file, with a specific file, or with any file in general?
3. Have you updated SoftMaker Office to the latest version?

Additionally, you may want to try renaming the /SoftMaker/Settings folder and see if that resolves the issue.

Having same issue with Textmaker and Planmaker. Latest version. Opens OK, sometime slow. Then if you try to do something, like paste data into a cell or enter data manually, you get spinning wheel and app freezes. Similar issues with text in Textmaker. Makes it unusable. Running on a Macbook Air M1 chip (2020) and Sequoia 15.2
