MinimWatch greyed out

[simoncn]

MinimWatch and MinimServer have full support for M1 Macs.

It sounds like the Mac firewall might be blocking incoming network connections to MinimWatch. There are a few reasons why this might be happening.

The instructions for installing MinimWatch on a Mac are in this section. If you haven't dragged MinimWatch to your Applications folder before launching it (see step 4), this can cause the problem you are seeing.

To check your Mac firewall settings, do the following:
1) In System Preferences, open Security and Privacy
2) Select the Firewall tab
3) Click the lock and enter your password
4) Click Firewall Options
5) Check that Block all incoming connections is not selected
6) Check that Automatically allow downloaded signed sofware to receive incoming connections is selected

This should be sufficient but to make absolutely sure that MinimWatch is receiving incoming connections, you could add it to the list of applications manually by clicking + and selecting MinimWatch.
