macOS installer is broken

[SupLiCatinG]

ℹ Computer information

Monterey 12.3 Beta

• Spotify version: 1.1.77
• Spicetify version: 2.8.4

Restarting terminal doesnt work anymore

I even tried manually downloading install.sh unfortunately no luck for me

[SupLiCatinG]

I choose go with homebrew package, works normally now.

Do you have a .zshrc file under ~?

[SupLiCatinG]

nope but i never had in previous builds

[SupLiCatinG]

i have these only realted to zsh

[ineedhelp-pls]

i haven't used spicetify in awhile because i was getting too confused by it but i'm trying to try it out again because i loved when i did have it, so i deleted ALL of the past files that I had of it in hopes that it wouldn't be a problem when i was to reinstall but i'm having the same issue as you (i think) - i thought i had deleted something i wasn't supposed to but if you're getting it too then it must be a bug...or at least i'm hoping it is :'0

[afonsojramos]

Hopefully, #1445 will fix it.

@ineedhelp-pls @SupLiCatinG can you try the following?

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/khanhas/spicetify-cli/install-shell-fix/install.sh | sh
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CharlieS1103/spicetify-marketplace/main/install.sh | sh

Maybe we should create a zshrc if on macos and it doesn't exist?

[afonsojramos]

#1445 will do just that @theRealPadster.

Doesn't that just check if it exists? Or does it create the file somewhere and I'm just not familiar with the syntax?

[afonsojramos]

I suppose the latter 😅 If you run a command with the >> it will redirect the output of the command on its left hand side to the end of the file on the right-hand side.

Ah, I didn't realize it created the file if it didn't exist, just that it appends. Nice

@ineedhelp-pls @SupLiCatinG please try again with the official installation instructions

[ineedhelp-pls]

hi, i followed your instructions and it says that it worked in terminal so yay and i guess my spotify looks a bit different but i can't find any of the spicetify files in my computer (is it because i deleted all of my previous ones?) in order for me to make more changes in the path - sorry if this is a silly question, i've just never coded before so i don't really know what i'm doing lol

[rxri]

~/.spicetify is the path for spicetify folder

[ineedhelp-pls]

it's saying "zsh: permission denied" :(

[SupLiCatinG]

Try homebrew build of spicetify, it seems more reliable

[afonsojramos]

But it shouldn't be sudo protected, you messed around your permissions somewhere.

[ineedhelp-pls]

shoot! If i did, i didn't know that i was doing that - is there a way that i can fix that? the sudo command helped and worked because i located the spicetify file, but now i'm trying to work with the custom apps and i can't find my config even though it said that it generated a "default config-xpui.ini" already so i did the sudo command because i thought that i just couldn't find it but now it's saying that it doesn't exist...and i tried just putting the command into the terminal but it's saying permission denied again :/

[ineedhelp-pls]

if it's not apparent yet, i really don't know what i'm doing and can use all the help i can get with this :')
