Apple Silicon apps are not launching.

So I have this issue and Im not sure how to get it fixed. I use a macbook pro m1 and I currently have the latest Monterey update. 12.3.1 However, I cannot seem to run any apple silicon apps. When I install the intel version of the same app it launches without any issue (I have Rosetta 2 installed). Universal apps also work with no problem. It doesnt make sense that the apple silicon apps do not work. Can someone help me with this?

Hello fableraps,


Let's start off by checking the helpful steps in this article which can help with this issue: If an app on your Mac stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open - Apple Support. Try these steps first:


  1. "Quit and reopen the app - Quit the app, then open it again. If the app won't quit, force the app to quit. Then check to see if the problem with the app is fixed.
  2.  Restart your Mac - Restart your Mac. Then check to see if the problem with the app is fixed.
  3.  Check for updates - To see if updates are available for the app, open the App Store, then click Updates. If updates aren't available for the app, update the software on your Mac. Or if you didn't get the app from the App Store, look for updates to the app on the app developer's website. Then check to see if the problem with the app is fixed.
  4.  Reinstall the app - Delete the app. When you do this, you might lose data that was stored in the app. Then redownload the app. If you didn't get the app from the App Store, redownload the app on the app developer's website. Then check to see if the problem with the app is fixed."

 

Let us know if we can help with anything else at all or if this doesn't settle your issue so we can look into this further with you. Thanks and have a fabulous day!
