Hi Stephen,
I also have a error in my iMac middle 2015 with the new OS mojave.
Here I share with you my error:

I already installed the version 2.7.2 and looks work. Except when I try to create more than 20 screens.

I want said thanks so much for develop this software. I can live without him

Thanks!

Thanks for the reports.

@PaulS Sometimes if the plugin is slow to start that error message may come, I’ll look at waiting longer.
@production There may be some system limits to creating desktops, it used to be 16 (hence the old error message, which I need to change) but these days I’m not sure exactly how Apple limits it - At least I can create more than 20 on my machine. So it may be hardware dependent.

I’m working with 25 desktops on my iMac Pro, via TotalSpaces 2, works great.

This version fixes a few bugs, including the app names in dark mode.

I’m using 2.7.6. I just migrated from an older laptop running High Sierra over to a new laptop running Mojave. Previously TotalSpaces2 was working fine. SIP is disabled. However, I don’t see anything listed under " System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Automation". The box is just empty. I’m getting the “Could not create all requested desktops. The system limit is 16 (plus specials)” message. Do I need to do anything to make TotalSpaces2 appear in the System Preferences?

Also, I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I found that my preferences are being saved even though I am deleting ~/Library/Preferences/com.binaryage.TotalSpaces2.plist and ~/Library/Preferences/com.binaryage.totalspacescrashwatcher.plist. I searched for and deleted any files with the word totalspaces, mainly “~/Library/Application\ Support/TotalSpaces2”, still the preferences were saved when I reinstalled.

willurd · 2018-11-19 03:14:24 UTC

I’m in the same position as @martinbutt. Just got a new laptop with Mojave and TotalSpaces2 just won’t work. I’ve tried uninstalling & reinstalling and restarting in between those steps. I also don’t see anything under " System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Automation". When starting it up I’m seeing “Please check TotalSpaces2 can control Dock in System Preferences / Security & Privacy / Privacy / Automation”.

Here are my logs from a clean install:

(Sorry about the odd formatting. The input automatically converted the first set of logs into a table and didn’t for the second.)

I’m also happy to pay for an upgrade for Mojave support. TS is too important for my productivity. It’s either this or downgrade my OS.

willurd · 2018-11-22 20:01:49 UTC

I was able to fix the issue for myself. The problem was two-fold I think, both having to do with ~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db and the fact that my home folder was migrated over from an old computer (I think).

My new user account didn’t have access to ~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC, TCC.db's parent folder. So I right clicked it, clicked Get Info, clicked the padlock at the bottom, and gave my user permissions.
The TCC.db file itself was corrupt (I think). All I did was move it to my desktop and restarted my computer. This removed all accessibility permissions I had given to any application. When I booted up again, all my startup programs asked for permissions. This included TS asking for Dock permissions. When I gave them, TS now showed up in the Automation list in Security & Privacy, and now it works!!!

martinbutt · 2018-11-26 03:54:48 UTC

This worked for me too, thanks willurd! I had been using the trial for years, and didn’t realized how essential it had become to my productivity, so purchased the full version.

willurd · 2018-11-26 04:25:53 UTC

So glad I could help you out! I know I was personally dreading having to downgrade.

Dio porco!

I’m finding that Total Spaces 2 is working on Mojave (10.14.2) … if it starts. I have it set to start on login, but it fails (“Total Spaces 2 failed to start”) about 40% of the time. I don’t see a pattern for why it works sometimes and not others. It can be started manually, so it’s more an annoyance than a Big Deal.

Brand new MacBook Pro i7.

hangloose · 2019-01-24 20:03:38 UTC

Hi guys :TS won’t launch on new macOS update from today : 10.14.4 (18E174f)
Anyone for whom it works ?
BTW : I am using the latest update, 2.7.7
Hi Steve,
have you experienced the issue ?

stephen · 2019-01-27 16:38:59 UTC

Please try with v2.7.8

http://downloads.binaryage.com/TotalSpaces2-2.7.8.dmg

hangloose · 2019-01-28 10:18:14 UTC

Thank you Stephen, great work.
Testing now.
Thx for such a quick update.

macsmister · 2019-02-01 15:30:40 UTC

Works like a champ. Thanks Stephen!

stephen · 2019-02-05 21:03:07 UTC

Beta 2 of 10.14.4 won’t work with v2.7.8, please try with v2.7.9

http://downloads.binaryage.com/TotalSpaces2-2.7.9.dmg

Let me know if it works ok!

hangloose · 2019-02-11 08:38:39 UTC

Yes it does, thank you very much Stephen !

sbesnik · 2019-02-11 10:45:22 UTC

Hello everybody,
I’m a new user of TS and I’m really happy to have bought the full version.
But I just upgraded to Mojave (10.14.3) and TS can’t work without SIP off.
I don’t feel comfortable with using my mac without SIP so I wondered if there will be a chance to get TS working with SIP on? Or is it definitive?
Thank you!
