Hello, 

 

My XD is crashing after the lastest update of my macOS. Please help.

    After downloaded the newest version (v35.1.12) and installed (24 NOV), this issue went away. Happy XD again!

    Hey, Experiencing the same thing. This is a huge bug. 

     

    Occuring on both my Macbook Pro (2017) and iMac (2015); iOS Catalina 10.15.7 using XD 35.0.12 as well as the version before this. 

     

    I have been trouble shooting since last night; stayed up until 4AM trying to finish a time sensitive project but the app kept crashing every 5 minutes. Completely unusable software, why do we pay so much to get this. 

     

    I have uninstalled XD over and over again. As well as went back to an older version of XD; which I was met with "This was saved with a newer version of Adobe XD. Please update Adobe XD to open it."  Used the Adobe Cleaner Tool as well; fully wiping out any Adobe settings, then reinstalling CC. Obviously restarted my computer. 

     

    Things to maybe note; using an external monitor, files were saved on Adobe Cloud as well as local file. Another thing; I cannot update to macOS Big Sur due to my external cables not being compatible with that software; in case that is the next suggestion. 

     

    Hoping for a fix soon.

    macOS*** Rather than iOS, apologies it's been a long week. 

    Update: 3 hours of troubleshooting; continuing to clean and reinstall. Even updated my iMac to macOS Big Sur 11.0.1 to see if XD would be more compatiable. No dice. 

    Love having software that is useless, should've stuck with Figma.

    Hello,

     

    I'm also getting various reports of our marketing users not able to use Adobe XD today on macOS.  I've done the steps provided in these threads to no luck.

    I just rollbacked to v34.4.12. With v35.0.12 from today's update, i was not able to open any XD files.
