OT: Apple help

I know some of you are owners....

I hope someone can offer me a little advice.

i am installing toast and eyetv.

The disk loads up it copies into my applications folder on Mac HD and I get the re assuring bong that it has finished.

I then go to the icon in applications and double click.... it thinks ..... appears in dock bouncing away..... then !!!!! The application x or x quit unexpectedly . Mac os x and other applications are not affected. Click relaunch to launch app again. I click relaunch and loop through this.

I have 2.4 20" 2ghz memory and running leapord - Can anyone shed some light?

is it permissions? Do I need to do something else?


Thanks

Hmmm - I suspect its the fact that toast and eyetv are not Leopard compatible... yet!

This is quite an interesting thread on Toast however:

http://forums.support.roxio.com/inde...0&#entry164587

I tend to just use the Mac Disk Utility for burning CD's/DVD's

I don't use that software, but it looks like there are some problems with Leopard & permissions:

Quote:
"After "Archive & Install" I was not able to launch EyeTV 2.51 without getting the Setup Assistant every time... Rebooted using Leopard Install CD and repaired Disk Permissions. I then rebooted back with internal Hard Disk and copied my old pref and other EyeTV support files in to the new System Folder and got all my Recordings and channel settings working again. Still get the warning about internet apps at launch.. Elgato confirmed that Leopard has some funny issues with permissions that Apple must resolve.
-Esteban "
All the best.

Got Leopard but do not use Toast or Eyetv. Would be inclined to say that these program have not been updated to Leopard as yet, unless they have released a update on their website

I have eyetv 2.51 and toast 8 running well on an imac 24, a macbook pro and a mac mini all using Leopard. I had no problems with the installs. Did you try repairing permissions first before installing?
