As a workaround, can I edit the Isadora preferences file manually while the Isadora application is closed?

 I don't know how to edit the preferences file since it's binary and not plain text, but one workaround is:

Use the steps in this article to install both the newer version of Isadora, and an older version of Isadora that doesn't have this problem.Delete your Isadora Preferences (use the steps under "macOS" and "Windows Option 2" from this article to delete all of them.)Open an older version of Isadora that doesn't have the issue.Change the OSC port in that versionClose the older version of IsadoraOpen the newer version of IsadoraIt will create a new preferences file by copying the older preferences file, in theory taking on the OSC port you set in the old one.

NOTE: If you want to change the port again, you need to perform steps 2-7 above again.

Thanks for this insight. The 2 license approach is where I am leaning. Having a year on a second license allows work to take place for a longer period, after which I could reevaluate whether I still need the additional license for another year. 

I'm glad to hear that it's worth it to do the upgrade. It sure seems like there are significant things that make it all more flexible, versatile and easier to do a lot of things... especially audio. I look forward to working with it.

I appreciate your feedback.

Best,

I solved it for now

I'm not seeing the exact same behavior as you, but something similar. I am able to close Isadora Settings, but I do see that on newer versions of macOS, this causes an eternal popup that can't be closed for me, so I'll log that.

Best wishes,

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help. I have a Mac laptop running 26.7.1 and Izzy USB 4.5.1. We have a camlink 4k that captures live video from the stage. Everything was working fine but overnight the computer updated to 26.7.1 and now Izzy doesn't "see" it in live capture settings. It was working fine before the update and it still works on my laptop that is running 26.7. Quicktime sees the camlink so it seems to be an Izzy issue, not a Mac issue. Any thoughts? I've tried rebooting, rebooting and then plugging in the camlink in all sorts of order. No dice. Izzy does see the FaceTime camera, so it seems to be an issue with the camlink. I've asked our IT dept to downgrade the laptop back to 26.7. We'll see what they say in the morning. I usually have them turn off auto updates but they just gave me a new laptop this year and I forgot. Lesson learned! 

Thank you -
