Hi Rollins,
I had the same issue. An easy way to fix this is to put your samples and environmental layers in something like a OneDrive folder, but make sure that it’s not located on your desktop. Hope this works for you.. I think it’s a Mac-wide issue with Maxent
Cheers

Thank you so much! I tried running maxent on an older macbook I have and it works fine. But I think I will try this for my M1.


Have a great day ahead!
Cheers,
Rollyna

Hello Aditwi!

It's been two years since I did my thesis using Maxent. Back then, I just opted to run it on an older Mac (as my previous laptop was still quite functional) and it went smoothly. It has been a couple of years since so there might be solutions out there already. I haven't run Maxent on my M1 yet since then. I would love to hear anything if ever you find any leads on this. Good luck on the project!

Cheers,
Rollyna

Hello to everyone emailing me through this old email seeking for advise regarding using Maxent or even running it on Mac, 

Apologies for not being able to respond promptly. I noticed a lot were researchers doing their PhD's or MSc projects. I'm dropping by here again to let you know that you may email me in rollyna...@gmail.com for any inquiries. 

Best of luck,
Rollyna
