OM-SuperVP display initialization failed again after using a new key successful use

Dear Friend,

Again, it’s about the Supervp display Initialization failed.I consulted you(karim) last week. I don’t know if you remember. We tried a lot of things ,and finally you give me a new key, and it succeed that day.(picture 1)

But the next day when I opened OM again I used supervp, It can’t work which displayed “Initialization failed: please register an activation key…”. And all the programs in supervp I had done yesterday were gone, of course it’s not that important, The important thing is supervp display initialization failed. (picture 2,3)


So,I tried the previous method that you give me again on the computer terminal using the key that you gave me and it still didn’t work. (picture 4)

What can I do? It’s so weird…

My computer is Mac pro, inter Core i7, macOS13.7
OM7.4 and 7.3
Another thing is that when I save the program I did on supervp, I get an error (see picture 5) and can’t save it .I don’t know if this is related to the above question, so i offer it to you.

Best Regards

You have many confused things here.

  1. To be sure your supervp is authorized and i think it is please open a terminal and type:
    supervp -h

Ok.the answer is: zsh: command not found:supervp-h

it is:
supervp -h

(wiht a space between supervp and -h

I didn’t do anythings. Just now I tried again, just type cd Desktop and then type supervp, and it worked.

But yesterday morning and this morning, I had typed supervp -h that displayed "Supervp::Initialization failed: please register an activation key… "

So weird… I also didn’t do anything yesterday night. I tried it at the terminal and it worked, but it didn’t work this morning. So I gust it will fail again tomorrow morning. I’m already convinced of that. :cry: It’s like being caught in a strange cycle.

Is there any way to know what the problem is?

Yes,

First: when calling supervp on terminal, this shows IT IS WORKING and no issues with the authorization.

Second: you shoild NOT authorized it everytime PLEASE!

third: You should set supervp and NOT SuperVP.app in om’s Externals preferences.

Thank you so much!!! :heart: :heart:
I changed OM Externals preferences setting because superevp is not available. I thought it would work, so I tried it. I usually set supervp, not SuperVp. app, and it loads automatically in OM Libraries.
Anyway, now I know. I’ll see if it works tomorrow.
I’m very sorry to bother you. Thany you for your patiently answer.
Have a nice day! :sun_with_face:
