What is this?

There are numerous instances where we may need to restart our Mac to rectify a glitch. This user-friendly tool is designed to resolve most runtime bugs without necessitating a full system restart, and it can restore your applications to the state they were in before the issue arose.

This tool can address issues like:

Screenshot sucks on desktop
Lagging Input Method Editor (IME)
Disrupted core audio stream
AirDrop malfunction or inefficiency
Wi-Fi failing to scan or connect
Any unresponsive or spinning app
iCloud sync issues
Xcode not looking for devices
Xcode Simulator not booting
debugserver not responding

And more ...

Please note, however, this app does not have the ability to fix hardware problems or kernel bugs.

macOS below 13.0

You can compile the command line tool located at ./Resources/CommandLineTool.swift and execute there.

swiftc -o fixtim ./Resources/CommandLineTool.swift
./fixtim

Principles

We initiate a reboot process using launchd and reopen applications thereafter. This reboot doesn't involve reloading the kernel, but instead only reloads the user space.

This process is akin to a soft reboot on Android, which is fast and doesn't consume a lot of resources.

Admin Privileges

Most of the issue wont require an administator previliges, but some of them will. If you need it, execute the binary in terminal with a parameter --now.

sudo /Applications/FixTim.app/Contents/MacOS/FixTim --now
