MacOS Catalina Bus Error 10 - loads of apps crashing a few seconds after opening them.
Hey! I've been having this issue where a lot of my apps are quitting 1 or 2 seconds after being launched. This includes, but is not limited to: Page, Numbers, Keynote, Affinity Photo/Designer/Publisher. Opening keynotes for the first time, I got the "onboarding" steps where you show new features for the release, and the app crashed at the finder "load a document" dialogue that comes when opening the app. Other apps, like Final Cut Pro X, DaVinci Resolve 16, Safari, Chrome, Newton Mail etc seem to work flawlessly(a wide variety of apps from a variety of sources/install methods).
Furthermore, following the thread found here (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7145240), I've booted the system into safe mode, where I can indeed open all of the apps that crash when booting normally. This leads me to believe that Bus Error 10 is in my case not a hardware fault, despite it's implications.
I can't seem to find a lot of info on the subject. Before I go ahead and reinstall MacOS catalina, I'd love to see if anyone has a way to resolve this.
Current config:
MacOS Catalina Version 10.15.1 (on the latest available update as of 8th december 2019)
Macbook Pro 15" 2019
Core i9 8-Core 2.3 GHz
16GB ram
Radeon Pro 560X 4GB
This has been tested with and without a variety of thunderbolt docks/monitors. It doesn't seem to be related to hardware connected to the system.
Just a few crash dumps:
