May 27 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta45 has been released !
Fully Multi-Threaded LNC, many improvements for the registration engine, platform upgrade, and further tuning of internal memory consumption and memory release back to OS.
Apr 14 2026: Google Pay, Apple Pay & WeChat Pay added as payment options
Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
Hi,
My first post Christmas processing attempt resulted in APP not opening today on my MAC. All I got was 'Astropixelprocessor' beside the Apple logo in the top right corner - see attached image.
The only difference to computer set up
was that I did a standard OS upgrade to 'Ventura' version 13.6.
Appreciate advise on sorting from Administrator.

Hi @aidanwas,
Thank you very much for sharing the issue. We already received several reports of problems on macOS, it seems very likely at the moment that the issue is caused by those macOS updates somehow. I am investigating 😉 and will share a fix once available.

Hi Aidan @aidanwas,
Which APP version are you running? Did you try the latest 2.0.0-beta26, if not, please remove the old version first and then download 2.0.0-beta26 from our Downloads section here:
https://www.astropixelprocessor.com/downloads/
Please let me know if this works or not 😉
And if it does not, please let me know on which macOS version your are trying this.
Thanks

Mabula,
This worked great.
Many thanks
Aidan
Hi Aidan @aidanwas,
Thanks for your feedback 🙂
I understand correctly that updating to 2.0.0-beta26 solved the issue for you on Venturs 13.6 ?
