Hi there! I'm building an ebook library after ordering a kobo, and I was really excited to take advantage of all Calibre can do, except... it isn't working. At all.

I'm running Mac OS 10.15.2, Catalina

I downloaded the latest version, and it crashes upon opening.
I downloaded 3.48, and the exact same thing happened.
I followed the instructions on the Calibre FAQ:
- I do not have Voice Over enabled
- I checked my fonts for corruption
- I searched the crash log and found nothing like "Qt: internal: -108: Error ATSUMeasureTextImage..."

There is one step I wasn't sure how to do: System Preferences->System->Universal Access and turn off the setting for enabling access for assistive devices.

But I looked through the accessibility features and nothing seems to be on.

I really want to use this software. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

TA
