Help/Support Having Issues with IDA Search Functions...

[Ambrosianyc 116 iPhone 7 13.3]

I'm using IDA on a mac, searching for 10227FF68 but no search result is coming up in IDA-View A, or any other view. I did a test search in Hex view for a line i was literally looking at, and not even a result came up for that, even though it obviously exists, since I was staring at it right on the screen.

When I loaded the executable this first popped up, is that why i'm having issues? Can't believe how hard this is, for seemingly no good reason. 

Here are some screenshots: https://ibb.co/album/mv1FyL

This looks like an offset.

So just press “G” while in IDA and paste the offset and hit enter.

Didnt work  I’m not sure my binary loaded properly. I included a screenshot above of the message that popped up when i first loaded it. Said no entry point could be identified and to choose it myself… the hex view appears though, but I’m not sure if it’s fully loaded or not. IDA-View A looks weird, like a shell

Can you try via Hopper?

I don't remember if IDA Freeware worked well with ARM64 executables.

What's Hopper?     Yeah it doesn't, it just gave the option to load it as a binary instead, so that's what I did, but that error message came up. I assumed it loaded properly since the Hex viewer looked loaded, but perhaps it wasnt

Hopper Disassembler is the same or similar to IDA and it's free.

Otherwise, you'll have to find a cracked version of IDA to use.
