[Eeglablist] EEGLAB doesn't start on latest matlab and OS X

Thu Oct 23 03:01:14 PDT 2014

Hi,

I’m on Yosemite as well, and one quick and dirty workaround is:

sudo nano /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist

and put something else instead of “10.10”, e.g. with “10.90” (which is obviously < 10.10 ;-) ) I managed to make 2012b run.
So now I’ve both 2012b and 2014b, and I change the mentioned file depending on the needs … waiting that the entire matlab “GUI” world (EEGLAB, but also SPM and some parts of fieldtrip) slowly patches all the figure handles from numbers to objects.
I think that mathworks should have put the option to keep the “old” graphic system (e.g. “matlab -hgVersion 1” would have been beneficial), at least for a couple of releases, to let people slowly pick up that big improvement …. anyway …

Don’t forget to put it back to “10.10” when you want to upgrade from the App store, or you won’t find any new software …
My two €-cents,
G.

I had a similar issue when upgrading to the latest Mac Os version, and it didn`t allow any previous versions of Matlab R2014b to run. However, I contacted Matlab support, and received an "unauthorised" patch to work around the issue. Now I am able to run Matlab R2013 on the latest Mac OS.

Dear Ramon,

I agree. However, the issue is that the latest version of Mac OS only supports Matlab R2014b. Maybe there is some trick to get R2014a to work, at the moment I get the message "You can’t open the application “MATLAB_R2014a” because it is not supported on this type of Mac."

Hi again.... Simon.. as you well said.. that 'at least' allow to start EEGLAB, but there are more issues associated with the change of the handles  from structures to objects, with the change of the default order of the colors in the plots, etc ... so... I think would be a good idea if we stay with the previous version of Matlab until we fix all the issues... at least to use EEGLAB.
Best,
Ramon

Dear Martin,

This is an issue associated with the new graphics structures in Matlab R2014b. You simply need to change line 126 to  'fig'       ''   []      0;
instead of
'fig' 'real' [] 0;

and then at least the eeglab gui starts.

Best wishes,

Dear all,

I recently upgraded my OS X machine to the latest 10.10 Yosemite
version. Now, with the latest (?) MATLAB (R2014b) and with
eeglab13_3_2b, calling "eeglab" in MATLAB does not successfully start
EEGLAB. I get the following error messages:

>> eeglab
eeglab: options file is ~/eeg_options.m
Error using supergui (line 140)
supergui error: argument 'fig' must be numeric

Error in eeglab>eeg_mainfig (line 1304)
    supergui(gcf, geometry, [], listui{:});

Error in eeglab (line 449)
javaobj = eeg_mainfig(onearg);

Has anyone successfully gotten eeglab to run on this combination of OS X
and MATLAB versions?

Kind regards,
