Upgrade to MetaServer 5.2.0 on Mac Issues

So yesterday I update my Mac Mini to Metaserver 5.2.0 as well as updated Metagrid Pro on my iPad to v 1.6.5

Ever since then, I cannot create new macros from my Keyboard Maestro app (v11.0.3) I’m stuck in an endless “Refreshing the Macro List” loop that just does absolutely nothing. I’ve let it sit for 30+ mins to no avail.

Is ANYONE else experiencing this ? I use MGP for work everyday and not being able to create new macros is very frustrating. Please help.

Yep same here, can’t fire off KM macros and get endless refreshing on the list

Can you try the following:

I’ve tried that. No luck. Still getting the never ending loop of “refreshing the macro List”.

FYI: Here are the steps for Resetting the Metaserver.app permissions:

yep I’ve tried that too no dice

If this helps, the Mac Automation refresh DOES happen for Apple Shortcuts and the Menu Command feature. Just not for keyboard maestro.

Investigating this at the moment.

for me when a Metagrid KM script button is pressed it keeps bringing up Accessibility popup which says “Metaserver.app” would like to control this computer with access features… however in Privacy and Security Metaserver already is toggled on for accessibility…

I’ve tried to toggle it off then on, but it makes no difference…

Fixed it now tho, removed Metaserver with the “-” button then popup reappeared on next button press, toggled on now it works! thanks!

update… it worked for 5 mins now stopped working… not launching km commands again

I ran into the same issue about the accessibility toggle already being “on.” I had to select “Metaserver” and click the " - " sign and re-add it.

still can’t trigger KM scripts with 5.21 Metaserver or 5.20

Ouch. that sucks. Wish I had a fix for ya.

@Anders can you create the support ticket by emailing us at help@metasystem.io - we will need detailed logs from your system.

Hi Anders- Question for you to clarify. Are you unable to trigger commands from MetaGrid Pro that you had previously created-- that utilize Keyboard Maestro macros? Or are you unable to create brand new commands in MGP that use Keyboard Maestro commands because Metagrid Pro, when adding a macro will not connect with the Keyboard Maestro listing from your computer?

My setup continued to work fine wth EXISTING commands I had setup…I just could not create new ones because MetaGrid Pro would not connect and refresh the Keyboard Maestro list in my computer. The latest Metaserver 5.2.1 has solved that for me.

I had this problem and can confirm that 5.2.1 (2642) solved it for me. KM Macros back to where they used to be.
