Just bumping- This is happening for me in Mojave as well, except in my world I can open
Rack in Terminal by clicking on /Applications/Rack.app/Contents/MacOS/Rack.
Copying and pasting the Rack App to applications, or the dock does not allow me to open it.
I have trouble opening the VCV Rack 1.1.3 version on my Mac OSX 10.10.3.
During the last week I have read the previous threads and posts about people having trouble opening the program. Following previous advice was to no avail.
The task manager shows the program as running, but nothing is showing up.
It’s possible that some Modules have updated and require things that were not in Version 1.1.3.
I also think dowloading version 1.1.6 should resolve the problem,
This is on MacBook Pro (2019) running Catalina 10.15.7
But - this only showed up after a patch was (apparently) successfully loaded, Some of it was running and putting out sound, but when I pushed a button to trigger Bidoo’s póUPrè sampler, it crashed.
That patch had been working previously (a week or two ago). Sadly, póUPrè does not indicate which wav file it had been trying to load, not even by right-clicking on the module. I’m pretty sure it’s this 11-minute wav file, and it has not been moved around.
New development: Rack crashes when I just try to open that patch. The frozen Rack window still shows the File menu still dropped down.
Where exactly is it looking for the allegedly missing resource directories? Should it be buried somewhere in the /Applications/Rack.app/Contents/Resources/res directory?
objc[1816]: Class FIFinderSyncExtensionHost is implemented in both /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FinderKit.framework/Versions/A/FinderKit (0x7fff986de3f0) and /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FileProvider.framework/OverrideBundles/FinderSyncCollaborationFileProviderOverride.bundle/Contents/MacOS/FinderSyncCollaborationFileProviderOverride (0x10c51f50). One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.

I’m a complete dummy when it comes to IT so I’ve no idea what to do. I can open VCV and it works seemingly fine, but I cannot load any patches downloaded from external sources.
BTW links such as the above are now 404ed because all Issues are hidden in VCV Rack repositories (I see “Code,” “Pull Requests,” “Actions” etc but no Issues).
So there is some knowledge about how to handle the resource directory problem, but it is currently unavailable.
I’ve got two students with this problem – would be quite helpful to read those.
