So I got SketchUp Pro 2021 last week (version 21.0.392) and after a couple of days it started crashing. I have a new MacBook Pro from 2020, so this shouldn’t be the issue, my IOS version is Big Sur 11.2.3. I already deleted under library/Preferences the sketchup files and restarted SketchUp, but it keeps crashing. Can anybody help me?
I think you are running SketchUp on a macOS 10.13 system, which is not supported, but has worked for some people. You could try the steps I linked to, and see if that helps.
Thanks, but I am definitely running SketchUp within the Applications folder and not from the desk image - so this can’t be the problem.
And as I described above I have the iOS Big Sur 11.2.3 an my Macbook from 2020.
The installer you downloaded unpacks as a “disk image.” Once upon a time it was a disk, now it’s just the idea of one. You can throw away (eject) the installer file you downloaded and the folders it unpacked once you’ve completed the steps prior.
Hi Colin, I did all these steps. It still keeps crashing an it’s not the fact that the file was created in an older version… It crashes when I try to draw in a new file too…
I have the same version of Mac and are having the same issue, just crashes every time. Have sent a bug splat too if that helps.
Just started the trial but can’t seem to get ahead.
Always look first what graphics card you’re running with: Mac’s manage graphics card switching under “battery” listed as automatic graphics switching both in battery and Power Adapter tabs, which means it’ll switch cards if you’re plugged in or not. Here’s Big Sur’s screenshot:
If anyone SketchUp internal can read these better than me (I’m rusty at this point), the crashes are 222312 and 220198. I gave @JoshG1 my reading of it.
Ok so i’ve done some more playing around and it seems 2021 version works good on Big Sur with the M1 when making or editing existing .skp files. The crashing happens when working on a .skp file that originated from a .dwg file. As soon as i copy and paste, frozen.
