Kodi keeps crashing after installing latest version - freaky33 - 2014-12-29

I installing the latest stable release but Kodi keeps crashing everytime I start it up. I uninstall en reinstall it several times but it keeps crashing everytime. I don't see any Kodi files or maps in 'library/application support'. And my Kodi apps still there after a reinstall. I hope someone can help me out. Thanks.

The files would be in ~/Library/Application Support/Kodi/.

Sorry but I don't see the /Kodi map there.

You must surely be aware of the same problem in this thread...

Try downloading Kodi from a different mirrored server, this one worked for me:

Nothing helps, keeps crashing after launch the app. And no maps in Library/Aplication Support from Kodi.

Let me try and read your mind, Ok you have a Mac, thats all I know ?

Retina ?
Mini ?
iMac ?
Macbook ?

Big Mac ?

Mac Mini, all info is here: http://pastebin.com/nb5bVnpL

Cheers, you have done this ?

OSX Finder > Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Application Support/

Rename the Kodi folder, then restart the Kodi app again. It will run like a first time install and eliminate any startup Skin and Add-on errors. You will have to re-configure everything again.


RE: Kodi keeps crashing after installing latest version - freaky33 - 2014-12-30

There is no Kodi folder in /library/Application Support

Not happy. I installed the KODI stable release, tested it out some, was happy and it seemed stable. After a couple of days and convinced it was OK to drive on the highway, I dropped XBMC 13.2 into the bucket. This has crashed and is unrecoverable at this point. It won't launch. No crash log, just was watching a live stream, it quit and now it gets stuck when I try to launch. Very irritating, since Gotham seemed less prone to bad things like this and would bounce back like a good, old, trusted car.

Mac Mini, usiong a Harmony Smart Hub for control, have an HD HOMERUN on the same network, not integrated into XBMC (or KODI).

Open XBMC v13 back up. If you don't have it installed anymore, download it again and then open it up from http://mirrors.kodi.tv/releases/

Turn off PVR, then quit XBMC.

Open Kodi v14.

Does it open?


RE: Kodi keeps crashing after installing latest version - freaky33 - 2014-12-30

I don't have that anymore. Don't see the .DMG file in http://mirrors.kodi.tv/releases/ Only kodi files.


RE: Kodi keeps crashing after installing latest version - Ned Scott - 2014-12-30

It's in the "old" folder.. http://mirrors.kodi.tv/releases/osx/x86_64/old/xbmc-13.2-Gotham-x86_64.dmg


RE: Kodi keeps crashing after installing latest version - freaky33 - 2014-12-30

Ok, install XMBC, Open it and no crashes. But PVR is standard disabled because it's a clean install. I close XMBC and open Kodi, and still the same crash.

Then there must be a Kodi folder. Look under your user's library folder: Mac FAQ (wiki)
