Fixed My Unity 4.2 Crashes - Mac OSX 10.7.5 (bug report 553252)

I have found that the reason Unity 4.2 always crashed on my system was incompatibility with the following plugin:

http://scplugin.tigris.org

After I removed this plugin Unity 4.2 works fine!!!!

If you have this issue and want to remove SCPlugin, you need to delete:

/Library/Contextual Menu Items/SCFinderPlugin.plugin
/Library/Receipts/SCPlugin.pkg
/Applications/SCToolbarButton

Then from the Terminal:

launchctl remove org.tigris.scplugin.launch

Note: The plugin is not gone and the Trash cannot be emptied until you Log out or Restart


Cheers

 

Thank you for this! Worked on my Mac with OSX 10.8.4

 

Hey! This might just have fixed my Unity 4.2 crash problems too!

Thanks, and help yourself to some cats!

 

I was going to walk away from Unity because of this continuous crashes, but this tip has completely fixed this frustrating situation on OSX 10.8.4.

Thank you!

 

I don't have the plugin and still crashes (10.8.4)

 

Hello,

Have you got any other plugins in /Library/Contextual Menu Items/

maybe they could be causing the problem?


Cheers

 

thank you so much!!!

 

You can't be serious.....

 

I love you gruddlebug, I have been stuck using unity 4.1.5 (And all of my team too) due to this incompatibility.

I didn't even realise I had this SCPlugin installed!

 

THANK YOU!!!!!

How did you figure out it was SCPlugin?

 

Worked like a charm! 10.9.2 compatibility has never been smoother! Thank you

 

You sir, are my personal internet hero of the day!
This fixed my problem of exporting/importing packages which caused Unity to freeze when selecting a directory.
That's gone now and everything works fine.

Thanks a ton!

 

Thanks alot!
I was facing this issue from almost 6 months
You saved me! Owe you alot!

 

This fix worked for me. Currently using Unity 4.5.1.

How in the world was this figured out? I've been dealing with a crashing Unity for almost a year now. I was trying to give Unity as much info as I could on it, but I never felt like I got anything useful.

How would one even go about troubleshooting to find this? I'd love to know!

 

out of curiousity, I too would like to know how you were able to narrow down the cause of the crashes to this specific plugin?

 

Yes! Thank you Thank you Thank you. I installed that so long ago I forgot about it. Removed it and everything works like a charm.

Unity: 4.5.2f1
MacOSX: 10.8.5

 

You are a REAL HERO ! Thank you so much for this ! More than one year having Unity crashing on my macbook pro !! And I fixed this in 30sec thanks to you I don't know how you did find this but THANKS !

 

This also works for me (Unity 4.6.2f1 / Yosemite 10.10.2), but I struggled finding how to fix this because the SCPlugin wasn't installed on my session but on another one. So I logged in to this other session, I removed the plugin, restarted and now all crashes and bugs are gone !

 

Bonjour à tous.
Je relance le sujet car je viens d'acquérir la licence Pro Unity 5 et malheureusement j'ai perdu tous mes cheveux car le logiciel crash à chaque fois que je veux ouvrir un projet.
J'ai fais la manipulation des typos, l'ouverture en mode Administrateur, le mode "-force-opengl", etc...
Mais rien n'y fait !

IN ENGLISH : Hello everyone.
I raise the subject because I just bought the Unity Pro license 5 and unfortunately I lost all my hair because the crash software every time I want to open a project.
I'm handling typos, opening in Administrator mode, the mode "-force-opengl", etc ...
But nothing!

I finally found the problem with using Unity support!
This is potentially the solution to your problem!

- Uninstall the Audio Driver Current (Realtek for me)
- Disconnect any USB jacks and taken to a connected audio system
- Restart the computer
- Reinstall the latest audio driver
- Reconnected all
- Replace or raise Unity

Best Regards,
Jimmy
