this may have been posted here before but whenever I try to update (from both the main menu AND the osu!updater button) it gives me this error. every. single. time. https://imgur.com/a/wpgA4#m3cMu3i I have no idea why it's happening because a couple of months ago I could update it just fine. so every time there's an update I just reinstall and move all the songs and skins from the old osu.app to the new one (also watching 432 maps load in at once is funny.) some other issues I have with Osu!OSX are 1. not being able to drag and drop songs into the osu window, so I have to move them into the songs folder. 2. the cursor reappearing in fullscreen mode, causing me to choke and fail. 3. the well known the scrolling too fast through songs with the arrow keys that makes Osu! lock up.

are you using the new build or the previous build (the one that locks to stable fallback)?

i am having problems with updating my osu!. Whenever i press the update button it quits the osu app and never opens back up. If i try to quit the app and reopen it, it says that I still haven't updated it. Also some of the following are frequent problems I get while playing everyday; 1. my mouse cursor keeps on appearing while I play on fullscreen mode. 2. Also when i use the arrow keys to scroll for songs, when ever I press them like 20 times, the game freezes and i have to reopen it. 3. For some random reason osu decides on its own to crash, with no known or given reason.Please get the time to read this and fix this as fast as possible. Thank you Very Much!

I'm using the one that was released on April 21 2016. Sorry it took me so long to respond.

Mac Team, still waiting on a fix! I'm sorry for being so pestering but I really want to play Osu! it's literally my favourite game to play...none of the builds work for me and XQuartz just opens Osu!, it updates, and then disappears never to be seen again. When I restart XQuartz, it does the same thing..."updating" and then poof. Gone. Please send me an email or a message or anything, I just want to play Osu! again :(


If you found a fix please help me out :)

Nope but anyway, this game does not fit with OS X obviously. It's a shame that such a big game can't get its proper OS X version without any bugs.
Every time I try to update the game, it says "Unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application" so I have to uninstall, reinstall, etc...

You can't use keyboard commands on osu! when using mac, e.g. ctrl+v, ctrl+o for in-game options.

Isn't it Command + O or Command + Ctrl + O?

You can use cmd+o or fn+o

fn+o, command+0, command+ctrl+o, don't work for me.

You have to clic on "o" to change, and not "fn + o" because they will just set "fn" as keyboard command.
So it's "fn" + "clic to change" + "o", I guess, something like that

I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're asking me to do.

Hey I'm having frame drops every 30 seconds (yes I used a stopwatch) and it makes it impossible to play :c
EDIT: It will fix if I sign out, but whats the point on that :c

A question. The new OSX sierra. Does osu mac version support it or should I still wait for further development?
Karamatsu
*sigh* I'll start off with this part. One, I hate this os x mac release build. It freezes, makes me miss hit circles, not to mention I had to restart my mac several different times. And I've only been able to play normal/easy maps the past few months since my laptop can't handle the fast gameplay...I mean, it was working fine way before but now its just crappy on me. Whats up with that? I've been playing this game for almost a year now, I've had several performance issues and I can't download skins & maps online anymore. Its just a huge pile of crap. This release honestly makes me want to punch a goddamn hole through my laptop...
Xpo
Yeah my cursor just jumps randomly at least twice a song, kind crappy I've tried everything :(

For some reason, I can't update osu! while using mac, I've been stuck on fallback for a while now. It might be that osu! is detecting my computer can't run the latest build and is coming back to Fallback, as Kao said.

The updater runs, and at the very end it says "your osu is up-to-date", however it stays at Fallback. Help would be greatly appreciated!

That would be correct, it is detecting it can't run the latest if you have already seen "your osu! Is up to date" message, but you're still in fallback.
Try running the game in compatibility mode
Method 1: Launch Repair Dialog
  1. Hold down the Shift key on your keyboard.
  2. While holding Shift, double click the osu! icon on your desktop.
  3. Continue holding Shift until you see the recovery dialog prompt.
  4. From there, under Renderer, check "Compatibility mode"
*This will only appear when the selected stream is Stable(Latest)

My release stream won't update either, so the repair dialog doesn't launch.

The stable release of October last year is stuck on Stable (Fallback), It is intentional though.

I just wish that Stable (Fallback) would support newer versions of osu!, especially with the addition of Score V2 and the Hidden update to sliders, as b20160403.6 doesn't have those features, and that release is so old now. Like seriously, the current release is like b20170103.2. Peppy, can you please fix this
?!? :o

Suicune3 wrote:

The reason why it doesn't support that because Fallback is supposed to be used on (very) old computers that can't run Latest. Adding those features would likely make those (old computers) unable to run Fallback anymore (probably on Mac this would be the case.)
Fallback isn't supported anymore and won't be updated.

Hey guys~,

After updating to the latest update (I'm guessing the Chinese New Year update), I'm getting an error with wine.
It says:

"Unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application."

Any help is appreciated, thanks~

Hey I have an issue where every time I go to put in a new beatmap, osu gets stuck on the "Looking for new beatmaps" screen and just sits there forever. This first happened when I attempted to load a ton of beatmaps at the same by shift clicking them and opening them all at the same time, and now it happens on all new files. If someone could please help that would be great. I'm on macOS sierra running the lastest stable version of osu mac.

There a chance this glitch can be recreated by attempting to add a large amount of beatmaps at the same time. :)

I am having the same issue only it started when I added only one new beatmap. I tried re downloading osu (the old version not the Alpha release because that won't run for me) and moved all my songs from the old to the new. Now the "beatmap processing" screen is stuck forever. I was able to move skins, but not songs. I'm on macOS sierra 10.12.3.
I kind of messed up the old version so now I can't play osu at all...
Triple Agent
Temporary fix for the mac bug thing is to take all executables/osz files that aren't folders out of the songs folder in osu, this does mean that you can't dl any new maps though :(

Osu just updated for me (automatically- the thing on the bottom had a "click here to restart") and now it won't load- every time I try to boot it up on my mac an error window pops up.
Here's an image of the error
It says:
"osu!.exe - .NET Framework Initialization Error"
"Unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application."

Do I need to re-download Osu, or is there a way to fix this bug?

(Edit: I'm playing on a Macbook pro with OS X El Capitan (10.11.6) and using xQuartz to play Osu.)

I experienced that problem too, you should re-download your osu! client. Then put osu!installer.exe file that can be found out in the Download page in osu.ppy.sh if you need to do so.
[ADDITIONAL]If there are any of the songs that you want to keep it, you should take it out from the package file you can see when you right-click apps, then back-up to another folder or drive in order to save it.
If it is reinstalled, maybe there can be one more crash(It happened to me, which my computer is OS Sierra), then you will need to login then manually put the song back. Then you can enjoy the game. Sorry that my English is not that fluent.

Hey I'm new to osu so excuse me if this isn't the right place to post.

I just downloaded osu for the mac osx and I've been downloading beatmaps, but for some reason, the beatmaps do not show up in my lists in game and I have no way to play them. I've put them in the osu!/drive_c/osu!/Songs folder (nowhere else) just for reference.

Thanks for the help!

Did you try to press fn key and f5 key together? That is the way to restore your lost beatmap.

I got the problem which is making me get .NET Framework error(map is not restored even when I put backup file manually), or just opens Wineskin app.

Reading this thread just makes me sad. I personally have three issues that doesn't really need to get fixed but if anyone's experiencing the same problem, hopefully this post would create some kind of empathy or something.
1. Taking screenshots in-game. It's either a good or bad; the screenshot is either fine or a black screen.
2. After 3-5 hours of play, sometimes the skin gets glitched out. Something like this. Some sliders turn transparent lmao.
3. Sometimes the game lags and the approach circle kinda glitches out. This one's pretty annoying.

Still using 2015 ver. Unstable release ver just doesn't work for me.
