No data received from Weather Station
« on: April 20, 2024, 12:46:14 AM »
Firstly I am writing on behalf of my husband who has  been a keen WeatherCat user for some years now. Unfortunately late last year he started to lose his sight. So Weather wasn't the highest priority then. WeatherCat crashed back in November and would not load, it crashed on loading every time. At that point he gave up because he couldn't see. That was on the previous Mac system prior to Sonoma, which we are now using.
I am now trying to get things working for him. 
When I tried to open WeatherCat today it said, this is damaged so move it to the bin. So I downloaded WeatherCat3 and it just says, "Waiting for weather data to become ready." The weather station is plugged in. If I go to Settings it appears to have the correct information in there i.e. the station name and latitude and longitude etc.
Any help will be greatly appreciated to get this going for my husband.

We have managed to get it working by going into "Configure Station Hardware,"but are waiting with baited breath to see if it crashes because of Sonoma.

Good to hear you got it working.

FWIW; WeatherCat is running fine on my Mac Mini with Sonoma (14.4.1).

Thank you for helping your husband with the configuration! Several WeatherCatters are running Sonoma with no problems.
