Can't start macOS / crashes always on start

As the title says, I can no longer start the app since updating to the latest version. I have an Intel iMac and the latest app.

Systeminfos:
Mac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015
macOS Monterey Version 12.7.3

Part of error report:

Termination Reason: Namespace DYLD, Code 1 Library missing
Library not loaded: ‘/System/Library/Frameworks/ThreadNetwork.framework/Versions/A/ThreadNetwork’

Tried installing for the first time, getting the same thing. Monterey v 12.6.3

Same here, with both 12.7.0 and 12.7.3

Same problem - worked fine for years, updated to the latest version today, crashes on startup. Uninstalled and reinstalled in case there’s any bad state left around - same crash.

Monterey 12.7.3, Intel Macbook 2018.

Looks from the trace below it’s trying to load the ThreadNetwork dynamic library. That doesn’t seem to exist on Monterey, and looks like it isn’t supported on Monterey. Does this mean Monterey is no longer a supported OS for Home Assistant?

Just received automatic update and now have exactly the same syptoms/errors in log file. Late 2013 Mac Pro with Monterey (12.7.3), so seems issue with OS version (though readme for this release does not mention applying any limitations).

As mentioned earlier in this thread, ThreadNetwork is not supported on macOS 12, the documentation specifies 13+. Oh well, time to retire my old Mac, Monterey was the last supported release for me.

I ran into this same crash on Montery 12.7.2.

Downgrading to version 2023.7 (as mentioned in this comment on the bug) worked for me.

so there’s no other way than downgrading to 2023.7 or being a new Mac?

The 2023.12 is also still working for me on 12.7.2 on cMP.

Idem: Home Assistant (version distributed through the official Apple Appstore) stopped working on my powerful but Intel-based iMac. :frowning:

Same here. Just get the following message on the app launch Home Assistant.app quit unexpectedly.

HA runs fine through the brower but not as clean IMO.

New version resolved the issue and works 2024.2 (561)
I’m on Monterrey 12.7.3
