Hello,
I recently (just yesterday), updated my Macbook Pro (retina) to macOS Mojave and I noticed it would not let me use the Bluestacks app... This is highly irritating. Please help me. I need this desperately.
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), macOS High Sierra (10.13), iMessage version 11.0
Good morning eliel_raphael!
Thanks for reaching out about the issue you're having with opening an app since updating to macOS Mojave. I'll be happy to shed some light on this.
Take a look here for some information about issues related to opening apps after updating:
If an app won't run or install on your Mac after you upgrade macOS
If an app doesn't work after you upgrade your Mac operating system, check for updates.If an app isn't working as you expect
After you upgrade macOS, you might find that some third-party apps don't work or act as you expect. An app might not open, run, or install, even if you try to reinstall it.
You might see this issue if:
Your Mac has software installed on it that's known to be incompatible with your new macOS version. This software is placed in an Incompatible Software folder during the upgrade process.
Your Mac has software installed on it that conflicts with updates to System Integrity Protection in macOS High Sierra.
Make sure that you have the latest version
If an app doesn’t work after you upgrade, make sure that you have the latest version:
Check for an updated version of the app that is compatible with your new OS. Apps in the Mac App Store list their compatibility and system requirements on their product pages.
Find out whether the app developer has a new version or plans to release a new version of the app that is compatible with your new OS.
If an app won't run or install on your Mac after you upgrade macOS - Apple Support
Hope that helps! Take care.
Hey sir! So here's the thing. I found a "solution" to the problem but I do not have a solution to actually making Bluestacks work on Mojave. I believe soon enough Apple will make an update for Mojave to fix bugs like this. Even an app called OpenEmu (another emulator) doesn't work... So are you willing to use another android emulator? The one I use now (it lets me have more control and usability than Bluestacks - like letting me type on games and view stories on Instagram without crashing). I use the Nox App Player: in order for it to work you need to download the latest version of Virtual Box (Oracle VM VirtualBox). And also, I can send you the DMG for the Nox App Player because there are some versions that won't work. Email me if you want the DMG? @ nohope4life77@gmail.com
I hope this helps you, I am sorry that you cannot use Bluestacks as of now but Nox has been giving me a much better experience AND it looks nice too 😀 Let me know if you need any help or more questions you got, sir. Have a good day.

I had that issue but I have just installed the BlueStacks version 2.0.1 for Mac on my Mojave and it is working fine, during the installation it asks you about some permission that you need to give them, I think because of that permission the old version doesn't work.
just some proof that it works
Thank you it did help me. I just also wanted to say I found the solution but I appreciate your time and response! Thank you!
Could you let me know how you solved the problem. I can not start Bluestacks after upgrading to Mojave. Thank you very much in advance.
could you please tell us, how you solved the Problem. i have the same issue.
Thx
Actually found this post while trying to recover Nox in Mojave, thanks for the tip.
No worries, basically, download the latest Virtual Box and latest Nox App player and make sure you install Virtual Box first and then Nox after and all good to go. 😀 Enjoy!
what is the solution you found. can you share it with me please.
Download the latest version of Virtual Box (https://www.virtualbox.org), and the latest version of Nox App Player (google search: nox app player)
Download the new Blue Stacks version. It works for me.
