For about two months, I had been using the bluestacks android emulator in a windows virtual machine. Specifically, I was using parallels and windows 7 32 bit, and was just using bluestacks to play some apps. During that time I was using an early version of OS X Yosemite.
Unfortunately, I have been unable to play apps ever since one of the later Yosemite updates, and the issue persists in the El Capitan update. I can open bluestacks and run the apps fine, but it doesn't take long before my mac crashes for insufficient memory. I have 8 GB of RAM, which had been more than enough to run bluestacks in the past.
It was hard to determine what was causing this issue, but I'm almost certain now that it's an OS X issue (not bluestacks, parallels, or windows). I have tried using vmware fusion, virtual box, all the different windows versions (7 through 10), and many different bluestacks versions. Also, I would prefer to not have to use Bootcamp Assistant, as I only have a 121 GB Hard Drive and I would like to run bluestacks in windows and mac applications simultaneously.
I tried another couple of different combinations, and actually was able to get it working again! It's very funny how I hadn't been able to get it working for the past month and a half, but was able to the day after posting this.
May I ask how you got this to work without crashing. My problem is similar. If i ran bluestacks on my Mac and want to then run VirtualBox to virtualise windows, i always have to restart otherwise my Mac crashes.
I have tried -i for instance/index, -s for start, -a for activate, -r for run, etc but none of them seems to work. Is there anything i am missing or can it simply not be done. I would be fine starting the instance using the instance name or the index. Either way works for me.
HD-PLAYER.exe doesn't take short form argument, you will need to use --instance instead of -i. The instance names can be found in bluestacks.conf file, in lines that match bst.instance..*. So if you see a line that says bst.instance.Pie64.abi_list="x86,x64,arm,arm64", The command to start this instance would be:
I have the AC app on my iPhone. On the iPhone, if I select Chart, ActiveCaptain automatically brings up my LakeVu g3 map of Lake Murray, SC. Also, if I launch Navionics Chart Viewer on my PC, Chart Viewer brings up my map of Lake Murray. However, if I launch ActiveCaptain on the PC and go to Chart, I get a blank yellow screen. In essence, a blank map.
Sorry to hijack this question.. Could use some help though I cant get it to load past the splashscreen, but I am using windows 11 android subsystem. Did you do anything special on bluestacks to make it run?
Installing Bluestacks on VPS/VDS RDP can be challenging, since Bluestacks is designed to run on desktops and has no official support for server environments. However, in some cases, installing Bluestacks on VPS/VDS RDP on Windows Server may be possible.
These are just general guidelines, and the actual requirements may vary depending on the specific apps or games you run on Bluestacks. If you have access to a more powerful VPS/VDS RDP server, it may be helpful to ensure sufficient resources for Bluestacks.
Wait until the installation of the package is complete. After successful installation of the framerock inside the virtual server system, you will need to download the Bluestacks 4 installer from the official website at
It is important to note that Bluestacks was designed to run on desktops and can consume significant CPU and memory resources. On VPS/VDS RDP there may be restrictions on allocating such resources, so the performance of Bluestacks on the server may be insufficient or cause problems with other applications on the server.
The remote desktop protocol is an approach to accessing windows from a remote area without really accessing your device from its actual location. Moreover, the users using the remote desktop protocol can utilize their windows platform anytime and any place they want. The remote desktop protocol is a product from Microsoft Corporation.
