Anyone experiencing problems with “Live Share” in cursor after update to mac os 15.0 Sequoia? I get the following errors now:

  • Command ‘Live Share: Start Collaboration Session (Share)’ resulted in an error
  • command ‘liveshare.startFromActivityBar’ not found

Ran into this myself, it doesn’t seem to have to do with macOS, though I did update to 15 as well, but rather the latest version of LiveShare 1.0.5940. If you go to extensions, click the gear icon for LiveShare and select Install Another Version… using version 1.0.5936 gets me working again.

Hi @bit-cmdr, thanks a lot! didnt know the trick with the gear icon to install another version. also reverted back to the previous version and seems to work.
good workaround, although still remains a bug with cursor compatibility then?

cheers!

Oh yeah, it’s 100% a compatibility issue with Cursor. I don’t get the issue at all in VSCode on the latest version. I’m on Cursor 0.41.2 and the only way I can use LiveShare is by downgrading the LiveShare extension. Hoping for a fix soon.

I’m having the same issue. It looks like LiveShare released a new version v1.0.5941 on 2024-10-03, but it still has this problem. The only solution that’s worked for me is to roll back to v1.0.5936.

I think we just need to wait for the VSCode version update in Cursor.
