Ultradave Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 My MacBook Pro was not running Commonwealth Forces. I could license it but it refused to start up, despite troubleshooting by the crew at Battlefront. Today, there was a Mac OS X Lion update to 10.7.4 and glory be, I started up CW to see if it made a difference and it works perfectly. Maybe it was only me and there was something flaky about my new laptop (hard to believe since it's only a few months old) if there is anyone else out there with a Mac that refuses to handle CW you may have better luck after the system update.

Guest Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Good news, thanks. 10.7 introduced a lot of odd permissions changes. Apple has been gradually fixing them. They also messed up some video drivers badly in 10.7.3. Hopefully they've fixed them in 10.7.4. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultradave Posted May 12, 2012 Author Share Posted May 12, 2012 Several bouts of repair permissions, several session with Onyx to clean, and one run through of repair disk did nothing to fix things, but now the OS X update has magically made things work, so it looks like they did fix a bunch of permission problems. Oddly, this was the only program I had any problems with. Whatever it was it happened to touch something that needed fixing by Apple. Anyway, happily blowing things up now :-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poesel Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 IIRC Lion has some improvements in the graphics engine. But both run CM fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
