OSX beta 4 won't even launch

Hello,

I just downloaded beta 4 for OSX, and it won't open. It gets to the splash screen, and then just closes on its own. No crash report or anything.

Ideas?

thanks,

I already deleted the old beta, so this is keeping me from making any progress!

I restarted - and now, when it quits - I get this message:

"The application MidiTranslator quit unexpectedly. The problem may have been caused by the libmt.so plug-in."

Here's some info from the crash report:

Hi,

thanks a lot for the report.
Here, we haven't been able to reproduce this crash, but we'll work on it at highest priority.

Regards,
Florian

thanks!

I'm getting the same problem here.
Let me know if you need any further details.

the newest build of beta 4 is now fixed - it opens fine. But, they sent it directly to me - not sure which version is available via download from the site.

good to hear. that was an interim version for the bug reporters only. We'll release a beta 5 soon (to prevent any version number confusion!)

Florian

Florian, could you send me a copy of the fixed build?
Much appreciated,

J

beta 5 will be out in a couple of minutes. You'll be notified by email if you have downloaded the beta before.

Florian
