I have a machine with the same (unsolved even with v4.0.2) issue, but it's not MAC.

For now, try to see if you can find something in the "log";
to enable it without a working Electrum GUI, you need to edit the config file in the data directory: Data Directory Locations
(AFAIK it will create the files even if the GUI won't launch)
Open "config" with a text editor and edit "log_to_file": false, into "log_to_file": true,
If there's no line for the log config, manually add it below "is_maximized": false, (follow the indentation).

Then launch Electrum, it won't start since it's the issue.
After a few seconds, open 'Data Directory\logs' and open the log (txt) file and check the contents for possible 'clues'.
If you didn't find entries like "...|     INFO | gui.qt.ElectrumGui | Qt GUI starting up", we have the same issue: electrum/issues/5974

ummmm... just wanted to point out that 13 is higher than 7... so if it is "10.13 or higher"... then I guess that probably explains why it doesn't work on 10.7 Wink
