MCL-4047 Minecraft under El Capitan will only launch for one user. Duplicate

Comments

The work around of putting minecraft in the user/application folder works great. I haven't looked back since then.

This is not fixed with the new update this morning. I still have the same user problem. Having to re install the app in each user when I switch users.

I only saw this problem arise when I updated my system to El Capitan. In Yosemite, all was fine. I still have one system on Yosemite running the latest launch and it's working fine.
What do you call the legacy launcher ?

Technically it's not the same issue as this happened to me when I installed El Capitan OSX 10.11 As to the other issue is for Yosemite. 10.10...

Oh I see, you mark is resolved because there's already another same issue out there.
K

Why would you make it a resolved issue ?
It's not resolved... There needs to be a fix.
By the way, it's not changing users in mincraft, it's changing users in OS X. I'm talking OS X users, not minecraft users.
Of course each OS X user has it's own minecraft user.

But why was this marked resolved ?
It isn't.

Just attached the error window

I did the above and indeed it works for the current user but if you log in as a second user (my daughter for example) then you get a different error message at launch telling you that you are running minecraft from the dmg file. Which I am not. Minecraft was moved to the Applications folder.
If I re install from dmg for this user and log back in to the original user, I get the same error.
So minecraft can only be launched from one user. In order to make it work, I need to erase it from the App folder and re drag it from the dmg.
Not too fun.

Who wrote this?
There is no such file as app.mojang.minecraftlauncher.playlist
AppCleaner does not find it and I did not find it. Looking in all the correct spots.
Meaning this file isn't where it should be, meaning that you could have given the path to this file.
How hard wuld that have been ?
Ridiculous
