I just got a new laptop (had been using Joplin on both iPhone and Intel Mac laptops before). Going through the forum I had understood that installing the M1 version should work on my new M4 laptop, but when trying to start the app, I get the following error : "An error occurred: Fatal error:EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/Users/marianne/.config/joplin-desktop".
I of course have admin access to all directories (even though I'm not asked for any). So I'm assuming the problem comes from somewhere else.
If you had any idea? Maybe I should just wait for a later version that will for sure work for M4?
Thanks in advance!
It should work with M4 too. If you run ls -la /Users/marianne/.config/joplin-desktop from the command line, what does it say at the top for the . folder?
No such file or directory (.config does not contain any joplin related folder). In the /Users/marianne folder, I found some of Joplin crash reports, I've attached one here. joplin_crash_dump_20250110T124833.json (3.2 KB)
And how about the folder ls -la /Users/marianne/.config/? Maybe the permissions are not right on this one. If this is a new computer, it's possible that during the migration from the old one, the permissions have not been set correctly
