Mac OS | Application does not launch (new install)

CrewLounge PILOTLOG for desktop is developed under Microsoft Windows, but runs cross-platform!  You can run the desktop app on your Apple Mac OS without the need for a virtual Windows.  

CrewLounge PILOTLOG runs on all 64-bit macOS Catalina, Big Sur, Monterey, ...

To make the application run on your Mac, you require the following 3 (free) components to be installed:

• MONO Framework by Xamarin - Version 5.18.0 (only this version!)
  
• XQuartz by X.org - Version 2.7.11 (or later)
  
• PILOTLOG by MCC - Version 5.2 (or later)
  

Download the installation files:  CrewLounge PILOTLOG

MONO Framework

Verify that you have the correct version of the Xamarin MonoFramework installed, as follows:

1. Right-click Finder on the dock
2. Choose 'Go' and then 'Go to folder' option  (or take the Shift+Cmd+G shortcut)
3. Browse to /Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions
4. Verify that you have the 5.18.0 version installed ( a higher version will not do the trick! )

Should you have multiple versions of Mono installed on your Mac, make sure that 5.18.0 is the current framework.  This version is needed to run CrewLounge PILOTLOG - Version 5.2

.

Some pilots reported that they had to reboot the computer in order to get the framework up-and-running.

If Mono Version 5.18.0 is not found, download and install the package from our website (here).
