Hi everyone,
Every time I close WF in my Mac, it takes quite a few restarts for it to open again. This has been something that has been happening for quite a while, and I'm wondering:
1. If anyone has any suggestions on how to "fix" this or prevent this other than not closing the program.
2. Will Wordfast *ever* address this issue than that acknowledging its existence?
Thanks for your help!

Hi Paula
many of us had this bug but I think it has been solved as it does not happen anymore with the most recent updates. I have v 5.16.1.

Hello,
Developers have been working on a solution to the crashing issue Mac users experience when opening and closing the application. They created a proof of concept (POC) for 5.13 that I used without any problems for the several months, then a 5.15 POC, and have now released an updated POC for 5.16.

Hello,
Developers have been working on a solution to the crashing issue Mac users experience when opening and closing the application. They created a proof of concept (POC) for 5.13 that I used without any problems for the several months, then a 5.15 POC, and have now released an updated POC for 5.16.

Please note, moving from 5.13 to 5.16.1 will require you to update TMs and glossaries. They are updated automatically when you add them to a project or open a project with them attached. If you downgrade to 5.13, you will have to revert to the "_backup" TMs or glossaries that are automatically created during the update procedure. Furthermore, if you are working with packages, make sure everyone in the workflow is using the same version (either 5.13 or 5.16.1). Moving from 5.15 to 5.16 should not affect TMs and glossaries.
