I have a program that i use daily, VIP by akai, and all of a sudden it wont open and has this error message that it needs a case insensitive file system. It was working before and ive made no changes to my mac, what could have happened?
Mac Pro, OS X 10.10
By default, regardless if your Mac's system drive is formatted as Mac OS Extended (HFS+) or APFS, it is formatted as Case-insensitive. You would specifically need to reformat it as either Case-sensitive or Encrypted, Case-sensitive for this to change. It should not occur automatically ... even if it was "upgraded" to APFS from HFS+ with an upgrade to macOS Catalina.
Exactly, i have not changed anything or updated anything. In between closing and reopening the program the computer wasnt even shut off. Now it wont open and has that error message. I tried reinstalling it and i got the same thing. I havent changed a thing so i have no idea how this happened or how to fix it.
Case Sensitive file system
