I found the Mac OS directory which contains the INDI drivers (links?) probably copied from the beta version was 'bad' as could not read them in Mac terminal w/o getting a damaged error msg. from the Mac Os. I deleted the directory and reinstalled 3.7 stable. I then connected a Canon 6D and it seemed to work fine and I could 'trip' the shutter w/o crashing Kstars. But when i tested it out in my observatory tonite, hoping to test with mount and other componets connected I coud try some long exp. imaging, 3.7 connected and ran the mount 'normally' and INDI panel said it connected to my Canon M50 (mod.'d astro-cam)) it was not recognized byt the EKOS Cam module which only shows "Primary" in the upper panel where it should have the camera M50 name as it has for 2 yrs I've been using it. When I cliked the preview shot button 3.7 crashed immediately I tried a couple of other ways to turn on or reconnect after closing and restarting Kstars but go the same result every time. Something is very wrong between EKOS and INDI in 3.7. I'm pretty much done with this as have not been able to image for a couple months. And will be moving on to other software options for imaging and running my scope. I hope we'll see a fix and truly stable Kstars comes along someday.
