Eric,

It got resolved on my laptop, but I just tried installing 31DEC2014 on a MAC desktop, OS 10.6.8, and I am getting some errors.  Here's the aips login info.  The tek and msg windows come up but no tv window.  Getting the shared memory failure.

I've included my following up on the Mac install page and can't seem to find where the error is.  Sorry for not closing the ticket earlier, some of my nrao mail was going into a junk folder due to a new email protocol that got imposed.

Thanks,

Chris
