The Problem

If you want to use the AIMAll software package version 19.10.12 on an iMac you may not be able to execute the apps. Here is a quick fix for this issue. The developer is currently looking to find the underlying problem.

1. Copy files across

Use the follwing terminal commands to be able to run the AIMAll applications.


cd /PathToInstallationDirectory/AIMAll

rm AIMQB.app/Contents/Frameworks

rm AIMQB.app/Contents/PlugIns

cp -rp Frameworks AIMQB.app/Contents

cp -rp PlugIns AIMQB.app/Contents


rm AIMStudio.app/Contents/Frameworks

rm AIMStudio.app/Contents/PlugIns

cp -rp Frameworks AIMStudio.app/Contents

cp -rp PlugIns AIMStudio.app/Contents


rm AIMUtil.app/Contents/Frameworks

rm AIMUtil.app/Contents/PlugIns

cp -rp Frameworks AIMUtil.app/Contents

cp -rp PlugIns AIMUtil.app/Contents


However, this only allows you to start AIMAll in the standard mode even if you have a professional license.

2. Run AIMAll in professional mode

The problem can be circumvented if the Apps are called from the terminal; e.g.:


cd /PathToInstallationDirectory/AIMAll

cd AIMQB.app/Contents/MacOS

./aimqb
