Interesting indeed. It sounds like there is something wrong with your Java runtime. You may have to install another version of the Java runtime that will work with your O/S version and CPU.

Try issuing the command

java -version

and see if it prints out version numbers or throws another bus error.

Also, what processor is your Mac using? Intel, Motorola, or one of Apple's new M-series ARM chips?

Interesting. How did you launch YAAC?

I strongly recommend you open a Terminal window and start it from the command line so you can see any error messages. The command (from the directory where you unpacked the YAAC.zip file) is Crowthorne:yaac thomashole$ java -jar YAAC.jar

Bus error: 10

java -jar YAAC.jar

Hope this helps. If it doesn't, capture the output in the Terminal window and email it to me privately so I can help you debug the problem.

I hope someone her can help. I am trying to run yaac on Mac running OSX 10.11.6. All I get when I launch yaac Is a menu bar with yaac and nothing else. Could my ancient operating system be the cause?
