Fusion crashes after sleep - "Application Not Responding" on MacBook Pro M1

schack.lindemann — Thu, 15 Sep 2022 10:09:57 GMT

After updating to macOS 12.6 and Fusion V.2.0.14104 Fusion have become very unstable. I work primarily on a M1 Ultra MacBook Pro and it seems that Fusion becomes unresponsive every time my laptop wakes from sleep. I've filed crash rapports every time but even though we've had 2 more updates the last couple of day the problem persists.

Any suggestions?

Hi @schack.lindemann, thanks for posting.

Are you using Rosetta 2? If not, it is recommended to install it to run Fusion 360 on a MacBook with an M1 chipset. Check this article for more information: Is Fusion 360 supported on Apple M1 System Architecture. I think you may also find the links from the See Also section useful.

I'm not sure that Rosetta 2 is something you can remove or install. Its an inherent part of the OS and as such needed to run any kind of intel-based code on an Apple Silicon processor of any kind. So yes, I'm using Rosetta 2 on my M1 Ultra MacBook Pro running macOS 12.6.
But, the problem seems to have stabilised itself somewhat after one of the resent updates to Fusion. So I consider the issue solved.

PS. Here's hoping for an Apple Silicon native version of Fusion 360 sometime in a not to distant future. Maybe even before the advent of the M3 series. 🙂
