Crabhunter Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I've got a really odd problem with my 10.15.1 Catalina install. Every time I try to attach something from the finder window in any program it just freezes. I've googled, and plenty of people have had the problem, even on real macs, but I've not found an answer to it. I have one install on my main drive and my test install on an external and both have the same problem. Any ideas?

Allan Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Well, if others users had the same problem, you'll need to wait for Apple to fix it, by a security update.

I've found posts going back several years on different osx versions. I just haven't found a post saying how they've fixed it.

Allan Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Got it! You've installed your system from the scratch? Or did an update?

That is exactly what I meant, but....... this morning it's working fine?????????? One of life's little mysteries.

Crabhunter Posted November 4, 2019 Author Share Posted November 4, 2019 And today the problem's back. I haven't installed anything since or fiddled with anything. It seems preview in finder just won't load. I'll keep trying and see if there's a pattern as to when it will work and when it won't.

xtraa Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Strange. Do you get any Console error-output when doing this? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/340977-freezing-when-trying-to-add-attachments/#findComment-2696323 Share on other sites More sharing options...
