AutoCAD for Mac 2018 not opening after Sierra update

Anonymous · ‎01-29-2018

Hi,

Is anyone else experiencing issues trying to open AutoCAD after running the Sierra update on MAC? It suggests that the AutoCAD now does not have permissions to there folder, although prior to the update worked successfully.

Hi @Anonymous,

I see that you are visiting as a new member to the AutoCAD for Mac forum. Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

This occasionally happens with Mac OS upgrades. I suggest that a clean uninstall and reinstall should bring you back to normal operations.

Hi @Anonymous,

I am checking back to see if a reinstall fixed this problem on your Mac High Sierra. Please let me know your status.
