Hi Andre,

This is good info. It sounds like there's at least a workaround for now by disabling the "Annotate" checkbox.

If you would like to debug further and see if it can help us find a fix to support older version of OS X, you can run AIJ from the command line with java -jar ij.jar. Maybe then a java exception would show?

If the above doesn't give any useful information, it could be a deadlock, so getting a threaddump would help: https://www.baeldung.com/java-thread-dump#1-jstack
(jps in terminal to get the ID while AIJ is locked up, then jstack <id> > dump.txt )

If none of the above works and you really need a solution, the next step would be to install IntelliJ community edition (i.e. free) from the jetbrains website and then install the AIJ v5 project from github. The instructions are provided at that link. That will give full debugging capabilities, but might take some time investment to get familiar with IntelliJ.

Sorry to push this back your way. I just don't know how to reproduce the problem since my Macs have later version of Mac OS.
