Recently my odrive desktop sync agent stopped running in Mac OS High Sierra. I uninstalled and reinstalled desktop sync, but still can’t get it to run. I click to open the app but nothing happens.
Hi @yfhudak,
Try these steps and see if it helps:
-
Open a terminal session (type “terminal” in Spotlight search):
-
Run the following command in the terminal session (copy & paste + Enter):
killall -KILL odrive; killall -KILL FinderSyncExtension; sleep 5; cd "$HOME"; rm -r ".odrive/bin"; rm ".odrive/version"; open "/Applications/odrive.app"
This will reset the bin folder and re-run odrive. Hopefully this will clear out the issue. If it doesn’t can you try running this command next?
bindir=$(ls -d "$HOME/.odrive/bin/"*/ | tail -1); echo $bindir;"${bindir}odriveapp.app/Contents/MacOS/odrive"
This will spit out some information to the console, can you copy and paste that here?
Awesome the first command worked for me! Thank You!
Great! Thanks @prestonjohnlewis. I’ll reference this in your other post, too.
Worked for me. Thanks very much!
