I downloaded the OSX app, draggged it to the application folder and started it.
When started, the only thing that happens is that the icon appears in the top menu (next to the wifi sign, time etc).
When I choose “open” from the icon – nothing happens.
When I choose “quit” from the icon – nothing happens.
When I switch to cryptomator (with cmd + tab) and choose “settings …” from the menu – nothing happens.
I also checked the console, no entry of any errors or warning …
I downloaded cryptomator again and reinstalled it – the same result.
It sounds like the user interface is not showing up. Cryptomator’s UI is based on JavaFX. Maybe it’s causing problems on your machine. The only thing that I can think of is that Cryptomator doesn’t work inside a virtual machine but that doesn’t seem to be your case? Even though you looked in Console, could you check out the log file that is located at ~/Library/Logs/Cryptomator/cryptomator.log if there are any error messages?
Thanks Tobi,
there wasn’t anything in ~/Library/Logs/Cryptomator/cryptomator.log, not even the Cryptomator folder in the Logs folder.
Is there a possibility to reinstall the Java engine or something like that?
Or is there any kind of data I could provide, e.g. with the analysis tool of the activity monitor?
I’d like to post my log file as a comparison. I started Cryptomator and then quit.

Two things I’ve noticed:
Three [JavaFX Application Thread] INFO lines with org.eclipse.jetty.util.log, o.c.frontend.webdav.WebDavServer, and o.e.jetty.server.AbstractConnector are missing.
Your JavaFX application stopped prematurely.
I must admit that I don’t know why this could be happening. Can you think of any applications/utilities that you have installed on your Mac that could block or interfere with internet connections? I’m asking because Cryptomator uses WebDAV to provide the virtual drive which is technically speaking a network protocol even though it’s only used in a loopback connection on your local machine. But there might be firewalls, antivirus softwares, etc. that aren’t too happy about this.
I have little snitch and a proxy (zenmate), but also when deactivated cryptomator doesn’t start …
And what I noted:[quote]Settings loaded from /Users/<redacted>/Library/Application Support/Cryptomator/settings.json[/quote]I had a look at this location: there is just a file “ipcPort.bin” but no “settings.json” or anything else.
I have the same issue, running Linux mint Cinnamon. Installed from PPA.
Here is the output if I run manually:

This is not the same issue, though. You’re trying to run Cryptomator with “IBM J9 VM”. Apparently this doesn’t come with JavaFX. If you need the IBM JVM for some reason and therefore want a Cryptomator version without any package dependency to a specific JVM, please download the .deb file from our website that comes bundled with an integrated JVM.
