This sounds like a problem I had - took me ages to find the cause. The problem I had that when you turn on Entitlements, it automatically puts values in the iCloud key-value store and iCloud containers settings. If you don't have iCloud all set up, this will cause your application to crash. Remove those settings and it should work.

Hope this fixes it for you.

I have not found any mention of this in the documentation, and IMHO it's a terrible thing to add settings that cause your application to crash on startup just because you checked the Entitlements checkbox.

Regards

Gideon

If I try launching it from the command line, I get a "permission denied" error even though execute permissions are turned on. If I try launching it from the Finder, then the app doesn't run, and this gets printed to the console:
