Feb 19 '24 20:02 Alyetama

@Nuzair46 Just now I rerun the install script and got a different error

$ curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nuzair46/BlockTheSpot-Mac/main/install.sh | bash -s -- -fP ~/Applications/Spotify.app

Spotify not found. Exiting...

Feb 26 '24 09:02 electriquo

@electriquo can you try without passing the app directory. can you just run this

bash <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nuzair46/BlockTheSpot-Mac/main/install.sh)

wanna see what happens

Feb 26 '24 09:02 Nuzair46

And I am still getting the same original error

Feb 26 '24 09:02 electriquo

this issue will be followed by #76 as the spotify version is latest.

Feb 28 '24 03:02 Nuzair46

Can you see if it works with latest release? I'm not able to replicate this issue in my system. I'm running on MacOS Ventura, Spotify Arm 1.2.32.**, Apple M2 Pro. Patch installed with codesigning.

@Nuzair46 Yes :(

Mar 24 '24 06:03 electriquo

Can you post a video of complete process. uninstall spotify and record from the beginning of installing the patch and opening the application and it throwing the error. I cannot replicate this and I dont see any widespread issue.

Mar 24 '24 06:03 Nuzair46

Can you post a video of complete process.

can you run this.

bash <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nuzair46/BlockTheSpot-Mac/main/install.sh)

and then open spotify normally instead from the cli

Also, try installing Spotify from their website instead of brew

try installing Spotify from their website instead of brew

Brew installs the official Spotify. Look at the URL below

$ brew info --json=v2 spotify | jq -r '.casks[].url'

Still happens for Spotify 1.2.35.663.gb699649e

I recommend using https://github.com/SpotX-Official/SpotX-Bash as it works without any issues and this repo doesn't seem well maintained

Could you try executing these commands in Terminal after installing BlockTheSpot-Mac? If needed, please make sure to change the path to Spotify::

sudo xattr -r -c /Applications/Spotify.app
sudo codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/Spotify.app

I am not sure, but for the second command, you may need to obtain a Developer ID from Apple and install it in your system's Keychain.
