Apple Mail refuses to open some attachments. Also, both first-party and third-party applications appear to be affected.

Other apps affected

Besides Safari and Apple Mail, various other apps have crashed or stopped working since the Ventura update. This may be due to compatibility issues.

This issue is very frustrating as many feel that updates are basically useless because they are not running the app without crashing.

So far, Apple has not commented on the issue of some apps crashing after the Ventura update. There is also no workaround to help temporarily fix the problem.

But as always, we’ll be monitoring this issue and will update this post if anything worth noting comes up.
