aerender ERROR -1712: AESend failed to send apple event

Does anyone know how to fix this error? I am trying to render a video batch with Nexrender with the  -reuse flag. 

aerender ERROR -1712: AESend failed to send apple event at line 1056

I have looked at this post and tried what people suggested but it doesn't fix my problem: https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects-discussions/more-aerender-woes-22-6-on-m-cannot-connect-to-a-running-instance-of-ae-fails-with-1712-timeout/m-p/14382997

My AE version is 24.3.0 (build 50), my Mac is running MacOS Sonoma 14.2.1

TIA
