    Hi!
    I compiled the program into MacOS.
    The program has a SQLite database.
    When I transfer the program to another computer, the program cannot write to the database.
    Probably limited access to write to the database.
    How can I write to the database?

      Hi,

      Store the database in a suitable place provided by QStandardPaths.

        For convenience, I put the database in the program folder. Is it possible to establish how to work with the database inside the folder with the program.

          No it's not. macOS rule: the content of an app bundle can't be modified. They are usually stored in /Application which is shared and read-only for users.
