I updated my Mac to macOS Big Sur a few days ago and tried to run pgAdmin to work on some projects of mine. However, it seems there is a problem with pgAdmin 4 and Big Sur. I just cannot run it thererfore I cannot use it to connect to PostgreSQL.

I uninstalled PostgreSQL and installed the latest version (v13.1) but it didn't solve my problem.

Is this a known compatibility issue?

Before updating my Mac to Big Sur, when I launched pgAdmin, it would open a new tab in my browser to let me access my database, and add an icon to the menu bar. Now when I launch pgAdmin nothing happens. It seems to be running if I look in the activity monitor (more than 90% CPU usage) but I don't have access to it.

  • Sorry, I got confused. To clarify, I installed the latest version of PostgreSQL which comes with pgAdmin. Before updating my Mac to Big Sur, when I launched pgAdmin, it would open a new tab in my browser to let me access my database and add an icon to the menu bar. Now when I launch pgAdmin nothing happens. It seems to be running if I look in the activity monitor (more than 90% CPU usage) but I don't have access to it :(

Updating to latest version of PGAdmin 4(released on 12th Nov) fixed the issue for me.

  • Is it part of PostgreSQL 13 or do I have to update pgAdmin seperately? Thanks,
