I heard that logging into the containter-management-system on the nas and restarting the container would also force an update? Don't know, because I still didn't manage to do sth like this.

setting up a new macOS user can also be an option. Not an easy one but an effective one... Strange thing is however, that I wasn't able to reuse the old user folder from the "old" user...

... (deleting all VW Apps) mainly deleting all vw 2024 folders and reinstalling VW 2024 helped for the first start, after closing vw and reopening the project sharing server couldn't be found again.....

now one of my colleagues has a similar issue in vw 2024, still on macos sequoia... I still am looking for a way, to enable older apps to access the network in sequoia... ChatGPT sais, that I need to reinstall the app... (Which is, what I am doing the second time, now)...

@Jonathan Pickup instead of deleting the whole user folder, which are the most crucial files which should be resetted?

just for curiosity, does anybody use the Building Smart Ifc-Validator in order to check exported and/or incoming ifc-files? Just for curiosity... Nearly all ifc-files I get turn out as faulty.... :-D thanks, regards, Matteo

@Pat Stanford no problem 🙂 there surely won’t be a fix for that issue in VW2023 anyway. So we need to handle that issue in another way.

@Pat Stanford yeah but as far as I know, that’s a setting made in MacOS, not in VectorWorks, so resetting saved settings won’t help it. btw, deleting the VW folder and reinstalling VW doesn’t reset saved settings anyway, however it helped in that issue. Could be another proof, that that’s not a vectorworks issue but a problem inbetween VW and macOS. however I’ll try tomorrow. maybe you can do so as well. if you’re right, clicking that button would cause to rechoose to allow vectorworks to „find devices on local networks“. however I’m not convinced, that you’re right.

@CRE_Admin i actually forced mac os to reopen the "allow, don't allow"-dialog by deleting the Vectorworks 2023 folder and reinstalling Vectorworks 2023... All my settings of course remaind , so, no big problem. Just hoped there could be a faster way but still didn't find it ;-)

Hi, where can I change the default value for importing worksheets to "referenced"? regards, Matteo

I read on the internet: sounds like, there won't be a solution for VW 2023 (and maybe 2024 as well)

@CRE_Admin I already took a look at the system settings -> Privacy & Security -> Local Networks. However for example VW 2023 didn't appear in that list. Is there a limit from which version on Vectorworks gets included in the local networks settings? (I am working on a 2019 MB Pro - macOS 15.3.0) Is there a way, I can add an app to that list? there's no "+" button in the preferences, drag & drop from finder to local Networks-settings doesn't work either. I had my VW 2023 blocked last time and it didn't get the license server. Deleting the vw program folder and reinstalling vw made the "security dialog" reappear and so VW 2023 was able to reach the license folder. (similar to the attached one)... But, is reinstalling really neccessary that way?

Hi, till yesterday my vw 2023 installation didn't reach our license server. Somehow it wasn't allowed "to find devices on local network". Unfortunately I couldn't find VW 2023 in the "Privacy & Security > Local Network" list in the mac os preferences. Is there any way to add VW 2023 to that list or at least to reset the setting made in the dialogue from the attached screenshot? (i prefered posting a similar screenshot that the original german screenshot, so, there should be written "Vectorworks 2023" and not "Foldr" ;-) ) I made it deleting the Vectorworks 2023 folder and reinstalling Vectorworks. All settings remained (stored in the user-library). macOS asked me again, if Vectorworks 2023 should be allowed to "find devices on local network" and everything is fine. But, does there exist a smarter, quicker way to fix that issue? Or is reinstalling Vectorworks the best option? Thanks and regards, Matteo

that's what I actually do, only in Excel. For example there are two columns in my material list. the first one is for Vectorworks. Reinforced concrete (german - Stahlbeton) is STB first column: STB second column: =Concat("??-?-???-";X1;"*") :-) this excel sheet can be referenced in Vectorworks and read as blueprint for a Solibri-classification as well.
