Who do you refer to by "you"? I did not suggest that you'd share any files with anyone. I merely suggested that you try and get things working in this basic way, and then return to this community with more information on what your password may or may not be, to receive further guidance. That said, you could also choose to share your "file.txt" with the community, which might reveal your filesystem properties but not actual contents of your encrypted files. If you were referring to yourself, then the way you get access to the actual files is through having cracked the password first. You'd use this password in the usual way to access the files on your Mac. JtR won't directly let you access the files - it will merely give you the password (if the attack is successful). > On Wed, Jan 9, 2019 at 3:36 PM Solar Designer <solar@...nwall.com> wrote: > > You can try one of the community-contributed builds of JtR for macOS: > > > > https://download.openwall.net/pub/projects/john/contrib/macosx/ > > > > On newer hardware, use the "avx2" version.
