Server disconnected error


You then click the Ok button and it opens the file anyway. The trouble is if you accidentally miss the OK button and bring say the navigator to the foremost window you can then have great difficulty displaying the error dialogue as it is hidden by the front window and the only way out is to force quit ArchiCAD.

There is solution using the Terminal app here
but it didn't quite work for me as described but it did create new Preference files with the same name but with the file extension repeated. I removed my original files and replaced them with the new ones and removed the extra .plist file extension and found that it now works.

So attached are the two preference files which have been modified to get rid of the Server Error message to replace the old preference files. The files are located in the User's Home folder \ Library folder \ Preferences.

Note these files will only work with AC 9 International English version. If you are running another flavour of ArchiCAD then you will need to follow the instructions using the Terminal app
here

Note
Obviously do not delete your original pref files just relocate them. Then if it "all goes horribly wrong" you can put the originals back
