HAXM for OSX 10.10 (Yosemite) using outdated signature

[Krishan_C_]

Dear Admin,

Just a heads up, I installed HAXM today using the SDK manager through Android Studio using IntelHAXM_1.1.0_for_10.10.dmg

However, the kernal extension is using an outdated signature and hence does not work properly.

i.e. the kextload command yields:

sudo kextload -bundle-id com.intel.kext.intelhaxm
    com.intel.kext.intelhaxm failed to load - (libkern/kext) not loadable     (reason unspecified); check the system/kernel logs for errors or try     kextutil(8).

Started having the issue in my mac after upgrading to Yosemite:

Please ensure Intel HAXM is properly installed and usable.

Alejandro M.,

The problem is solved with the latest version Intel has released and works OK with Yosemite.

You can download it here - https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-hardware-acceler...

The update isn't available through the Android SDK manager. So, you must download it from the link I've provided. Just download it and reinstall HAXM. It works OK with the latest Yosemite update.

Cheers,
