I have tried the work around that is shown on youtube but no luck

The workaround is not needed on 2.0.11, that was for previous versions.

I have set it up exactly the same as the other computer but the icon in the menu bar remains red

The 2.0 can hang on launch for a few reasons:
  • System Events startup check can hang for a very long time on MacOS.  We don't have a bug report for this, but we've removed the problematic line of code in 2.1.

    The fix is to reboot the computer and then the call will become responsive again.

  • An internal error may cause this.

    There's no single fix for internal errors, but starting QZ Tray from console and sharing the errors will help:

I have reset my terminal to the default. I have been unable to download 2.1 as when it is installing it creates an error and quits. I have tried rebooting but no luck

Understood.  Can you please reinstall 2.0.11 and then send us the logs?

If you're concerned about privacy you can send them directly to sup...@qz.io.


Based in what you're saying I have a feeling that Java has become corrupted on this machine.

If that's the case, the old 2.0 version should have something in the logs indicating this.

Ok, that error was supposed to be fixed a while ago.  It's an internal error that's caused by a conflict in some of the components we bundle.

Sorry about the inconvenience.

Can you see if upgrading Java fixes it?

Here's the steps for Mac.  Sorry if they're a bit advanced, Mac doesn't offer an easy uninstaller so we had to document the steps manually.

Thank you kindly for taking the time to share your progress.

We're sorry for the trouble this bug has caused.  In future versions, well bundle Java so that this problem does not occur.
