Why does MATLAB crash on macOS Sonoma when using an Individual or Designated Computer license?
Show older comments
When I'm using any release of MATLAB on macOS Sonoma, the program consistently crashes about 1-2 minutes after using it. I am using an Individual or Designated Computer license. If I minimize the crash report window, it seems like I can still use MATLAB. I noticed that the stack trace in the crash dump is about 16 lines long and mentions libmwlmgrimpl.dylib. Why does this happen and how can I fix it?

If your stack trace and symptoms do not fit the description in the question above, then you likely are encountering a different issue. This Answer specifically addresses this issue and not general MATLAB crashes on macOS Sonoma.
This is specifically a licensing-related issue. MathWorks is currently aware of this and is working on a solution.
In the interim, if you need to use macOS Sonoma, you can use MATLAB Online, Login Named User, or a Concurrent license if available. If you use the 2 latter options, you may need to manually move the license file causing issues elsewhere or deactivate the affected license.
What is Login Named User and how can I use it?
Where can I find MATLAB license files?
