Q: Tips for Fix?
I was hoping to test TaskMagic before the AppSumo deal was done so I could recommend it to others. You fixed the install issue from yesterday, thank you! Now my computer is crashing and restarting on it's own when attempting to record my 1st automation; then it freezes after restarting itself. I had to hard reset to fix the crash/restart loop (no opportunity to force quit). It displayed a warning of running out of application memory before crashing. Any settings I need to adjust on my end to prevent TaskMagic from overwhelming and crashing my computer (using 2024 Apple M4 chip)? Thanks for your help, I'm still excited and hopeful to get it running properly!

Jun 11, 2025A: Hey profound!! Thanks for commenting on the fix!! lol. Usually people only bring the issues up and rarely follow up so we appreciate that! We work hard and fast. The second issue might be a specific computer thing. Can you send us a video and maybe the stats like your software version history. Idk if we’ve tested on the m4, but it’s silicon so it should be the same. I can look into it. Lemme know the software version at support at taskmagic dot com ;)
onesoundI have the same issue...
With the same computer?

I'm very grateful for you all working hard/fast! I hope mine would handle things well being so new. With troubleshooting I verified I had the latest updates from Apple. It wouldn't be likely that I can screen record since my computer gets bogged down to the point of crashing when running TaskMagic. I ran out of time for testing & need to get back to work, but I'll try again as soon as I can.

I can also confirm that the download issue is fixed!!!! Sheesh that was fast. But I'm also sharing Profound's issue. Computer crashed hard with just leaving task magic open for a few minutes. I hard reset and kept it closed for now. I'm wondering if it's our OS disagreeing with Taskmagic. I'm on a M1
dechontelleSame issue on M1 Mac. Looks like it’s because the software uses Rosetta so it’s outdated. No one uses that anymore so we’re in a crash loop. Fix is to have a silicon vs intel version

This is interesting. Have you passed this on to the team? Looking through previous comments from years past leading up to this, others have mentioned task magic not running as fast on their macs due to this Rosetta issue (which I honestly don't know what it means). But each time it is mentioned here on App sumo by a user, Kyle (development) says he doesn't know what is meant by Rosetta.
