Title: 95.1 is not working on either of my Macs... Is there any reason not to use 93.3?

93.3 is working of course.

FYI 95.1 shuts down immediately.... seconds after launching

Thanks in advance.

Please provide armorylog.txt and dbLog.txt.

What version of Bitcoin Core are you using? Have you removed the databases (moved, renamed, or deleted) in the Armory datadir when you upgraded? Are you running Bitcoin Core manually or letting Armory run it?

0.95.1 has many benefits over 0.93.3, including a much much smaller database (a few MB vs. several GB), faster loading time, and segwit compatibility.

Using the latest bitcoin core. 14.1 ( I think)

I believe I successfully moved/removed the application folder and application file before the install of 95.1.  So when I attempted to open it it just looked like the first time app open.

95.1 would be nice, but my first priority is being able to send some coins to a person to whom i owe them.   Is there any security threat using 93.3?  Will the signed transaction broadcast be picked up and completed by the network?

Thanks.

0.93's database is not compatible with 0.95's. Either delete it or use a different dbdir.

Yeah I did that.  No joy.  Can I get an answer on the 93.3 question.... If I can build a signed transaction on the 93.3 version is there any reason not to broadcast it?

FYI, I have 95.1 on teh offline computer.  But on the online computer (Mac) it shuts down within 2 seconds of opening the app.

This is probably a startup issue that I didn't see with my setup for some reason. It's fixed for 0.96. Try one of the test builds and see if that works.
