## Flipper won't launch on Mac
|
|
|
|
* If the window is appearing, try opening the Chrome DevTools within Flipper. To do so, from the View menu select 'Toggle Developer Tools' or press CMD+Option+I and check if there are any errors on the console.
|
|
* Launch Flipper from the command line using `/Applications/Flipper.app/Contents/MacOS/Flipper`. This should give you some logs, that might be helpful when debugging.
|
|
* Delete `~/.flipper` and try relaunching Flipper.
|
|
* Delete Flipper from your applications folder and [re-install it](../index.mdx#installation).
|
|
* If you're using `yarn start` to run from source, make sure all dependencies are installed correctly by running yarn install.
|
|
|
|
## Flipper shows weird render artifacts
|
|
|
|
This is a long standing MacOS + Electron issue outside our control. In general, restarting your computer fixes the problem.
|
|
For a quick, temporarily work around start Flipper with hardware acceleration disabled. Please note that this will consume a lot of CPU: `FLIPPER_DISABLE_GPU=1 open -a Flipper`.
|
|
|
|
## No plugins showing up for your device
|
|
|
|
* Check your device isn't on the list of [known incompatibilities](#known-incompatibilities).
|
|
* Make sure your version of Flipper is up to date.
|
|
* Make sure the mobile SDK you are using is relatively recent (<1 month old).
|
|
* Open Chrome dev tools within Flipper. To do so, from the View menu select Toggle Developer Tools or press CMD+Option+I and check if there are any errors on the console.
|
|
* Delete `~/.flipper`.
|
|
* **Uninstall** and reinstall the mobile app.
|
|
* Make sure the time and date are set correctly on your mobile device and desktop computer.
|
|
* If no app plugins are showing up, there may be a connectivity issue between Flipper and your app. Check [connection issues](#connection-issues) to see if anything is failing.
