Joerg Hampel Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Hey Jim, what's the situation in regard to the VIPM API? Currently, it shows as "not OS compatible": Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Lawton Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 Hi- late to the party here, but finally got around to updating. I'm probably pushing the envelope a bit, being on MacOS Sonoma, 14.4.1. Getting Error 8 "LabVIEW: File permission error. You do not have the correct permissions for the file." on startup... Have enabled Full Disk Access for VIPM, and recursively added the admin group RW for the National Instruments/LabVIEW folder (as this has traditionally been required..) I'd guess VIPM is trying to read or write a startup preferences file; and if I could for the life of me remember where it kept the file, I could delete or chmod it as necessary! Any clues? Cheers, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
