Sorry for the OT, but I just came back from holidays, updated my OS 

(10.4.11) and now, MaxMSP (5.05) won't launch (neither will skype nor 

I know that this may not be the best place to post this but I couldn't 

find anything on apple forums and as Max is one of the app not working 

anymore, I thought that maybe someone else here experienced this problem.

I tried repairing my system permissions but so far no luck.

Try opening up the Console program, then launching Max (or Skype,

iTunes, etc). You can find console in Spotlight. What does Console say

when you launch Max? I would google those errors, and if that doesn't

Unfortunately, the console log does not look very helpfull.

Here is it (just in case) after trying to open Max:

Dec 30 12:39:41 mac crashdump[360]: crashdump crashed

Dec 30 12:39:41 mac crashdump[360]: crash report written to: 

/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/crashdump.crash.log

Found a few similar problems on apple forums but none of the proposed 

solutions seem to work here (like installing again Security update in 

It looks like I'm gonna start 2009 with a system (re)install....

Can you paste the contents of /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/crashdump.crash.log ?

If you're just going to reinstall OS X, then, obviously, don't bother...

You need to do a "combo update" of OSX, available on Apple's website. Incremental updates can result in the problem you have.

N.


Thanks for the info but the combo update didn't solve this problem.

I think I will start 2009 with a system re-install...

Max/MSP won't launch for me either. I'm using 4.6. The run-time does launch, but is useless for my needs.

I did the security-2008 update recently but can't say for sure if max ran or not after that.

I've deleted ~/Library/Preferences/Max folder. Reinstalled from the dmg.

I've e-mailed support but they probably are not open.

[OT] Max won't launch after osx security upgrade
