How to fix the AMAG Installation on MacOS Catalina
Raw
README.md

I Purchased this mini keyboard to extend my editor with combinations of keys that I will never remember. Sadly installing the App was problematic as it does not work right away.

  1. The App is written in Adobe air (!). Download and install their library
  2. Install and run this command to overcome Catalina problems (Steve we miss you) (from this thread)[https://community.adobe.com/t5/air/adobe-air-error-message-macosx-catalina/td-p/10683302?page=1]:
sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Library/Frameworks/Adobe\ AIR.framework
  1. Downloaded the online software from Koolertron as of today (2020 June 20) is this link
  1. Unzip it
  2. Delete the Air.framework inside amag.app/Contents/Frameworks/Adobe\ AIR.framework
  3. Copy the Air.framework from inside the /Library/Frameworks
  4. Enable execution flags:
  • chmod u+x /Applications/amag.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gbmgr
  • chmod u+x /Applications/amag.app/Contents/MacOS/Bootmapper This is because the authors zipped the contents but did not preserve the permissions
  1. Run it
  2. Check if the keys highlight when you press them after you select Key Action Tracking (the orange button)
  3. Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cknF8YnK-2U and
  4. Enjoy

Tips appreciated!

I got the application running on Monterey 12.3.1. But when I click "connect" it just displays "downloading" and does not progress beyond that point. I have no trouble using the keyboard on Mac after programming it on PC. I just can't connect to program from Mac

I am having the same issue as kurttr - stuck on "downloading" in Monterey 12.4 - any ideas? much appreciated.

I also have the same issue. When I click "connect" It just stays on "downloading..." I would love to have a solution to this as much as the others. I have a Monterey 12.4

Any update on this?

Now that Adobe does not officially support Adobe AIR, do you need help locating the file?
Use HomeBrew (in Terminal)
brew install --cask adobe-air

This is a ridiculous amount of work for a keyboard which should be plug-and-play! I think I will return mine.
