Hi Anamaria,

This hang issue with the Mac OS is due to the interfering of other application, 
such as Grammarly Desktop (maybe others).
Quitting the Grammarly Desktop application by going up to the menu bar on top 
of the screen and selecting “Quit” via the Grammarly 
icon’s menu will also allow IDV to work.
