debug info

I don’t see any error message just the rainbow circle on my mac.

That is a lot of add-ons. Is this still happening when you restart with all of your add-ons disabled? And –

Please tell us exactly what steps you’re taking …

Yes it is

I am clicking on the deck
then custom study
then study by card state or tag
then I have tried each of the options under this choice with 100 cards as the setting
then it just stops responding and bring up the rainbow circle

I have the ankimobile app and have not had the same issues there.

  • Does this happen in all decks/note types, or just certain ones?
  • Is it crashing when you click “Choose Tags” – or on the “Selective Study” window that comes after that?
    image
  • Have you run Check Database?

It happens once I click choose tags. Yes, I just ran check database and restarted anki and the issue still persists.

How many tags do you have?

I did not make the deck, it is a premade deck so I do not know the exact number but there are a lot of tags. I am using the Anking Step Deck.

I don’t think you answered this earlier –

Are your devices completely in sync now? You could also try running a Check Database on AnkiMobile, and then forcing a one-way sync from there.
