Won't Run - ioHub Error

[shlincoln]

If this template helps then use it. If not then just delete and start from scratch.

OS :
PsychoPy version (e.g. 2022.1.1):
Standard Standalone? (y/n) yes

Downloaded newest version, when I try to create a text (or any component so far) in builder. It freezes on a grey (with the little mac circle spinning) and the shuts down with the following error:

RuntimeError: Error starting ioHub server: ioHub startup failed.

I’ve tried looking up this error, but cannot find anything that’s working so far. Some things related to pyhook, but I’m not sure what that is?
THANK YOU!!

Have you looked at

I/O Hub Error with no eye tracking

I just ran into the same error. I noticed that in Experiment Settings > Input, the Keyboard Backend was set to ioHub. Changing this to PsychToolbox seemed to fix this issue for me. (This happened when I was creating brand new experiment, so I don’t know how changing this will affect your existing experiment)

OH! Yes, this looks like exactly what I’m dealing with ---- I feel not so smart right now, but I don’t know how to find the keyboard backend…I’m not sure how to change code and cannot find the input for this!

thank you again!

Figured it out! Thank you again!!!
