IPFS dead and unrestartable on Mac OS X

[boblucore]

I am having the same problem. Searching for IPFS in the activity monitor shows that it is not running, so the advice to stop it there and restart Akasha does not work.

I figured out the issue on my end. Port 8080 was being used by another application, namely parity UI daemon in my case. I went through the process of turning the daemon off, and then Akasha operates.

I'm experiencing this as-well. Although my error seems to be subtly different.

Ethereum connects and syncs fine but seems to timeout during the IPFS connection (first screenshot). When I click the IPFS icon, on the next screen I'm not able to click the IPFS service toggle button in the bottom left. (second screenshot)

macOS version: 10.11.6 (15G1108)

Still happening in 0.3.0.

Still happening for me as-well. App is unusable on macOS.

Hey @arobbins can you check the logs tab from ipfs modal? Click ipfs icon and navigate to logs tab. Can you post any logs from there? Make sure to remove/hide any personal data like ip or user from logs.

Thanks
