can't get maccsound to work!

I just recently got a new intel mac after being a windows (and WinXound) user for a long time. I've downloaded all the latest CsoundLib packages from the download page, but when I try to open the newest version of maccsound i downloaded, it never works. I get this message:

"The application MacCsound quit unexpectedly
Mac OS X and other applications are not affected.
Click Relaunch to launch the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple."

If I click "Report", it gives me this:

One other thing I tried is going into the package contents of MacCsound from the applications folder and opening the "MacCsound" file in the "Mac OS" folder. When I do that, i get the same error message as before but there is also another window that comes up that says this:

"Last login: Mon Feb 11 19:06:13 on ttys000

I obviously don't know what any of this means, and it seems like this problem should be an easy fix but I can't figure it out for the life of me. If anybody can help me out, it would be greatly, greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Re: can't get maccsound to work!

Hi

MacCsound is a PowerPC-only binary, so you have to install the PPC version of Csound. First, uninstall the Intel version of Csound, then download and install the file Csound5.07-OSX10.4-PPC.tar.gz from

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/csound/Csound5.07-OSX10.4-PPC.tar.gz?download

Hopefully, that should do it :)

THANK YOU

Just tried it and it totally worked! I know this was probably a total newbie question, but i appreciate you taking the time to help me out with it. Can't wait to get started...

Re: THANK YOU

You're welcome! And good luck and have fun with Csound.

Btw, I strongly recommend joining the Csound mailing list if you have not already. It is a great place to get quick help when you cannot figure something out for yourself.

Just click on the "Community" link at the top of this page for info on how to join.

Help me please!

It seems i have the same problem as you, but in my case, it wasn't solved after downloading and installing the file above (which contains cSoundlib).

When I try to run MacCSound, it "quits unexpectadly".

I am trying to run it in a MacBook Pro (Intel based Mac) and my OS is Mac OS X 10.5.4.

I have already tried both versions (Intel and PPC)

Any hint would be extremely helpful.

Thank You

Yey, just tried it a

Yey, just tried it a different way and it worked!

Thanks anyway.
