AutoCAD 2015 for MAC not opening

Anonymous · ‎10-06-2015

Since upgrading to OS 10.11, my Autocad has gotten progressively less functional. At first it had issues dealing with the layers in my drawings, now it either doesn't startup at all, or it stos responding when I try to open a saved drawing. Any suggestions??

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi,

AutoCAD for Mac is not compatible with OS X 10.11 at the moment.
The solutions are:
- roll back to Yosemite. (I think the Update for AutoCAD will be released soon, but don't know exactly when.)
- another way is to try this:

Beta works on El Capitan.

I was able to open it and did a Reset Autocad. That seems to have worked for now, but I'll be watching for the update. Thanks for the quick response

I also tried this trick with reset today, but it doesn't helped me.
AutoCAD still crashes when I try to edit MTEXT or use Layers palette.
