Oh boy!

Not a good start for me. I clicked the usual way of doing things and asked YAAC to download the new version. Then open it, the only thing that opened was the main window with no maps, and no menu items except the default 'YAAC'. Not sure where to go from here.?

I’m running a MacBook Air M2 Sonoma 14.2.1. I’ve been running YAAC for years on various Macs this is my first issue with a new version.?

Ideas?

That's very weird. Did you start YAAC the way you always start it, or did you let the upgrader start it post-upgrade? If the latter, close it, and start it the way you usually do.

The upgrader has to guess where to get the Java runtime, so it may pick the wrong one. Also, did you have any errors running the upgrader (such as permissions problems accessing the disk)?

Have you recently upgraded your Java runtime and/or version of Mac OS X? You may have to adjust OS security to allow the java program to access the file system (so it can search for plugins and read your YAAC configuration).

Let me know what you find out. When I get back to my borrowed Mac, I'll try upgrading its YAAC version.
