Same problem here on macOS 14.3.1. Problem appeared on earlier version on the system, then disappeared, then came back today.
I've attached the log file, but I suppose it won't provide any useful information.
I've tried both the Intel and Apple Silicon version (using a Mac Studio M1 Max).
macOS 14.4 is available so I will try to update the system to see if anything changes.
Unfortunately, updating macOS doesn't fix the issue.
I've managed to launch Spine 3.8.99. I get the same "antivirus" error message, but the app launches. However, it is useless to me as I need 4.1.x
4.1.24 displays the error message but the app does not launch.
I've tried previously suggested solutions (like disconnecting external monitors, etc). I have a Mac Studio, so all monitors are external. But I have two, so I disconnected one, it didn't work. I switched to the other screen, same result. So now, I'm stuck.
Sorry for the trouble. Can you try deleting your settings like described here?

Another weird thing. I have the same hardware at home (once again Mac Studio M1 Max, macOS 14.4) and Spine 4.1.24 starts without an issue. I don't know where the problem lies, but that's weird.
I'm frankly out of ideas regarding this issue. The only thing I can think of is some software interferring with Spine somehow, that's installed on the "problematic" mac, but not on your mac at home.
Could you maybe check what software runs on each mac?
I also started getting this error a few days ago when I started using an external monitor.
I have been able to reproduce it a couple of times by opening Spine on the monitor screen instead of the screen of my Macbook. If I open Spine on my Macbook screen, it works as expected, but if I open it on the external monitor, I get that error. That behaviour has not been consistent though.
To fix it, I usually have to wait for sometime and open it on my Mac screen.
marvfash Thanks for your reply! I have tried the followings but could not reproduce the problem:
(4.2.20 is currently the latest version.)
I tried each method about 3 times each. I tried launching Spine directly and launching it by opening a Spine project, but unfortunately I could not reproduce the problem.
I would like to reproduce the problem, but the conditions still seem to be lacking. Is there anything else specific to your environment?
I can confirm that with an external monitor. I got the error again today. Just disconnecting from the external monitor and launching spine on MacBook screen fixed that. I am back connected to the external monitor and it works.
Just wanted to add that I am also running into this issue, even without an external monitor connected.
I tried deleting settings and other suggested fixes but nothing was working.
Finally, I tried changing my computer's display resolution and opening Spine while using the lower resolution and that seems to have worked. I was then able to change the resolution back to normal and it seems to be working now.
It definitely seems like there is some issue with the graphics initialization on mac. For reference I'm using an MacBook Pro with an M2 Max with 38 core GPU and 32GB ram, running Sonoma 14.5.
