Got the same error on my 2017 IMac, but the app works on my M1 Macbook.
Both on MacOS Ventura.

For me the problem-path was like this (running on an M1 macbook air):

  1. I upgraded to macOS Venture
  2. got the error, that app is damaged
  3. deleted the nextcloud app from my Applications folder
  4. downloaded and installed 3.6.1 again
  5. works now!

Can confirm, reinstalling does not solve the problem, the installation is ended with an unspecific note of an unsuccessful processing.

Same problem on MBP 2019. Nextcloud desktop was installed with brew. Reinstall didn't help. Deleting from the application folder and reinstalling from brew fixed the problem. My settings were preserved.

On M1 (two machines) everything is fine. Smooth upgrade (all on the latest version).

For me, M1 Macbook air - after the upgrade app opened fine but said it was offline and would not go online. Downloaded the installer and run over the top of the existing install and everything works fine.

All using stable 3.6.1 not beta branch.

I updated to Ventura and now i have only the normal sync option, not the virtual folders options. I use a Mac Mini M1. A fresh install didn't help.

I tryed all previous things but nothing works for me. Then I install Nextcloud over brew. Before run it through application folder I run this command line : /opt/homebrew/bin/nextcloudcmd --user **** --password ****** /Users/****/Nextcloud/ cloud.xxx.xxx. It starts to do a lot of things but not sync. After few minutes I lost patience and try to run application. And it starts to work normally! So I cancel commandline and it simply work...

Btw. You should check system settings - security - and allow opening nextcloud application

Have now found out that the app breaks upon sleep and resume of the laptop and since that, a reinstall doesn't fix it. About to try a reboot (not common for me with Mac).

I can confirm all of that too. I use a Mac, currently MacOS Monterey (12.5.1), and the Nextcloud client works perfectly for one session with the Mac, also if you continue working after beeing on sleeping modus. But as soon as you shut down the computer, the Nextcloud client no longer opens automatically, and if you try to start it manually, it doesn't open, and instead of, you get an error message. Then I have to reinstall the current software, and then I can open the client. And I have to repeat that all the time.

It seems to me that version 3.4.4 is working normally! After start it is offline a moment and than work like a charm...

I did downgrade to Nextcloud-3.5.1 and it does run without issues.
Nextcloud-3.6.1 does start, shows the Icon in the Menu, but I cannot open the UI.

Folks, you might want to try fully deleting the desktop client application from your system and then doing a clean install. Your account settings and files should be retained, but it is likely the issue will go away.

You can purge the client by deleting Nextcloud.app from your Applications folder, as well as deleting ~/Library/ApplicationSupport/Nextcloud

After a clean install and then also updating some of my Nextcloud apps to patches released over the last week or so my desktop client now syncs. I'm on the latest version 25 so have had lots of app updates to do over the last few weeks.

So that had nothing to do with it. Still broken but I have found that if I keep the settings window open after a few minutes it will connect and sync. While it is failing the settings window does show an error about HTTP 500 PROPEND but that goes once it eventually syncs.

Hi, simillar issues here. With a difference, no crash, just start and hang.
After a successful upgrade to MacOs Ventura, the NC client has been working flawlessly for two weeks.
Suddenly today, it has stopped working correctly. No sync is possible, NC client re-install does not help.

Symptoms

  • NC client starts normally.
  • Within a few seconds, CPU usage of NC client process reaches 100% and is unresponsive.
  • MacOs Task manager reports process is not responding.
  • The client is not accessible from the GUI for any other troubleshooting (mouse spinning wheel when hover).
  • Starting the client from the command line with the --logwindow flag does not allow to get any log reports, since the client becomes unresponssive immediately, and no logs are found when exiting.
  • Waiting does not help, client remains unresponsive and sollicitating 100% CPU.
  • No sync occurs, no contact is made with the NC server.
  • Attempts at removing and re-installing the latest client version, brings no improvement, and leads to the same symptoms.
  • Other clients from other devices are synching correctly to same NC server instance
  • NC Server instance is working perfectly, accepting and treating all requests as usual

Client version

3.6.2

Host system version

MacOs 13.0.1

Server version

25.0.1

Please let me know about any further information I may provide.
Thanks.

Same problem here on macOS 13.0.1 with Nextcloud 25. I'm not exactly sure when the problem started.

I tried deleting ~/Library/Preferences/Nextcloud and then setting it up again. Worked at first, but as it almost completed the resync, the freeze problems started again.

So from another NC thread, this appears to be related to

  • NC Server config.php, bulkupload setting
  • NC Client, network settings, bandwidth limits

The issue can be solved by

  • Setting the NC Server bulkupload setting to 'bulkupload.enabled' => false in $NC_SERVER_DIR/config/config.php
  • Setting the NC Client network settings to 'No Limit'

At least several people have tried it, including myself, and it does solve the client issue.

Of course this is only a workaround to what appears to be a bug.

Setting the NC Client network settings to 'No Limit'

Fixed it for me. Removed 'bulkupload.enabled' => false from config.php again after changing the network settings and client still runs properly.

  • Apple M1 @ macOS 13.0.1
  • Nextcloud Client Version 3.6.2
  • Nextcloud Server 25.0.1

  • 'bulkupload.enabled' => false

Edit - not working

The issue spread to all clients on Windows and MacOS for me now and this config change has fixed it for now.

I did notice that the client was showing the PROPFIND error 500 in the settings window every time it tries to sync. If I open the webpage to the files app, the sync client immediately starts to sync.

Only happens on server v25.

We noticed that the issue (message "app broken") also occurs when using the auto update mechanism ("nextcloud (autoupdate).app")

10 08 53

Manually downloading and installing the app was working.

(Currently using NC v24.x)

Crash on open issues should be fixed by versions post-3.6.0 and should not occur on 3.8.x 🙂

For hang issues we have merged #5680
