freshburn Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Are you running 10.4.10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exasperated Posted August 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 yes I think so - why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freshburn Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 10.4.10 is the minimum requirements. I have never seen Popcorn not launch. You may want to try repairing system permissions, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried it in a new user account and it worked fine. Repaired permissions, deleted preference files, took out whole prefs folder and Application Support folder (I even took out the whole Library folder), but no go. Even went for all the 501 folders in the main Library, but that didn't help either - maybe the problem sits somewhere in etc or some other directory with individual user files, but where? Don't know what to do next. Maybe try a new user account; it may work there for you too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will need Roxio to come up with an update soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyndalh Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Popcorn appears to be incompatible with Leopard (beta Mac OSX 10.5 (9A559 version)). Will need Roxio to come up with an update soon. I couldn't get Popcorn 3 to launch with mac OSX 10.3.9 - just bounced in the dock then disappeared - so upgraded to Leopard and it still won't work. I emailed Roxio support twice over the past 3 weeks as I'm based in Australia and no-one has returned my emails - very frustrating and bad customer service whatever the problem/solution is. This update better work whenever it's released . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
