I use Mathematica 7.0.1 (home edition) in OSX 10.6.2; it always starts up fine. I assume you've restarted your Mac and the bad behavior persists. You might try starting your Mac in safe mode<https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564> (about which I know very little); Regardless whether this stops the symptoms or not, you may gain information. You could reinstall everything (starting with the OS); sadly this is a tedious chore. - Show quoted text - On Fri, Mar 26, 2010 at 3:35 AM, Nicola Mingotti < n-no-mingotti at g-spam-mail.com> wrote: > Helo, > > I'm using Mathematica 7.0.1 for students in OSX 10.6.2 > and it works really nice ... when it starts. > > The problem is that sometimes when i run Mathematica > the kernel doesn't start well and i have to restart, i can't even > do a single computation. > > This happens one time every 4-5 run of the program. > After a crash, at the second run, Mathematica has always started well. > This behaviour has been observed at least 20 times since now. > > Does anyone else have this problem ? > > Thank you > > Nicola > > >
