I opened up blueutil's Install.command file in TextEdit and it looks like it just copies blueutil over to "/usr/local/bin".  So I did that manually, but alas it still isn't working...

 

However, when I ran "which blueutil" in terminal I do get "/usr/local/bin/blueutil"

 

 

Seeing as crisprcas seems to have it working on Big Sur, and you did a manual install (as i understand it), I suggest you just uninstall blueutil, and do a clean install with Homebrew.

I don't have Homebrew installed, and don't know how to use it anyway.

hey there,

this workflow is not working for me ....currently on macOS Big Sur....basically everyworkflow is working except the bluetooth one...i have tried several others workflow but still no one works.

Please Please Help!!🙏🙏

Really useful workflow!

Works out of the box for me 👍 (as a developer I had homebrew, python etc)

Finally got this Workflow to run after learning how to install Python3 and Homebrew.

But how can I change the default keyboard command (currently set to ctrl+opt+cmd+x) to toggle my favorite BT connection?

Legendary, just as I was sick of an old workflow not working properly! Thanks a bunch!

@vegardinho First of all, i love this workflow. I also noticed that v4 has been released silently. 😉

Thanks! I tend to forget to post here, but I'll try to keep it in the back of my head next time.

 

I'm still a bit unsure if v4 works on apple chips though, some have reported that the blueutil binary doesn't execute in newer macs. Since I only own an intel mac myself, I'm not able to do any troubleshooting, so any help is appreciated.

blueutil does work on Apple Silicon. My Bluetooth workflow makes use of it, installed from Homebrew, and there have been no issues with the binary. The error has to be somewhere in the process (you seem to be shipping it yourself?).

Hmm, I suspect the problem is because I compiled the blueutil binary in v4 manually from the blueutil repo, because it hadn't yet been published to homrebrew. That might not have made the binary universal.

 

Edit: the second possibility is that homebrew installs the right binary for your system. I've seen several workflows where one has to choose between two binaries, depending on system architecture.

It works on both my 2017 Intel iMac and my 2022 M2 Macbook Air. Such a click- and timesaver!
