SheepShaver Not Starting
Posted: Fri Mar 15, 2019 5:24 pm
Hi Everyone;
Thank you for keeping this awesome project alive. I had tried SheepShaver sometime ago and it worked well, can't remember which version of Mac OS X it was, but I remember using it for quite a while.
Got myself a new MacBook Pro "13 2016 and it won't launch at all. App shows on the dock and disappears.
Don't worry, I did some digging here and there and tried my best to see what I could do to get it working with no luck.
Any help is truly appreciated. Read below for more information:
I have downloaded the following version of SheepShaver:
Version 2.5, 24 Februari 2019, 64-bit only from github.com/kanjitalk755/macemu source
For Intel Mac, MacOSX 10.7 (Lion) through macOS 10.14 (Mojave)

This is my device (I even restored the entire HD from recovery and tried running it again, no luck):
