It is now crashing over & over too:\
Try going to View and turning off Axes
See if this has anything to do with your problem:
It’s crashing too fast now. It barely even opens before crashing currently.
are you still working on a mac using mac os 10.15 catalina ?
if so it’s not supported by SU 2024, it’s big sur (11) minimum. 2023 was the last one supporting catalina.
and even if it launces, you’ll have to go to the preferences / graphics and pick the old classic engine, the new one is only compatible with mac os 12+
I’m using Monterey
Please correct your forum profile. ‘2023’ doesn’t identify the operating system and ‘Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7’ is not a graphics card. If you are using SketchUp 2024 please update that in your profile, too. The correct information in your forum profile helps us help you.
I honestly had not remembered I even had a forum profile. I think it’s updated now.
Your decade old Mac has an unsupported GPU for the new graphics engine that is in 2024.
You can find this info in the official help documents/ system requirements.

Switch to the classic graphics engine it in the SketchUp preferences.
or get a new computer ![]()
Umm ouch, LOL! How would one ‘classic graphics engine it in the SketchUp preferences?’
You were dead on, switched to classic graphics engine. I just had a call w/tech support who assisted me in figuring this out. I had not done the math on the age of my computer lately so thanks for pointing that out, haha. I guess that’s my next splurge.
