sounds like something not being initialised correctly either by me or the os.

doesnt seem to do it every time...
1st time it loaded with a cat-settings file I was working with and it crashed straight away - reset the msc and re-named the cat settings file before starting catalyst again ad it was fine.
Then closed catalyst, swapped back to the cat settings file i was working on, and catalyst opened fine. Will try some other things to see if I can esablish a pattern.... seems a bit random at the moment....

settings often change between versions.
its possible a setting from a previous version did something wierd?

Cat settings files are all from the new version 3.3g21 - doesn't seem to make a difference with old ones either
Have tried old 3.2f29 files and all settings seem to be ported across - with the exception of all the DMX In device selection/address boxes - all blank, no addresses/devices configured... - sync id's and rs232 codes, naming, remote setup all ok.
Its interesting that the presets that i was experimenting with from another cat-settings file, also seem to have incorporated themselves in to this one too - even though the cat-settings file is a version before presets! - That said, i've just moved the catalyst-preset.txt file. and they're gone.... (obvious!)
Have just done some tests... Using a Cat settings file that has some files on an external firewire drive.
If the drive is not connected when the mac starts up and then Catalyst is started - it brings up all the screens, but then crashed just before it starts to scan files.
However, if the external firewire drive is present (powered on) when the mac boots up - and catalst starts - there's no problem.
Although, It does seem a bit random as to whether it crashes first time or not... so not really sure if it is an external drive issue
Just re-booted and restarted 4 times and it only crashed out 1st and 2nd time - although i did nothing different... It only seems to crash at catalyst startup - never had a problem once running. Will let you know anything I work out...
-
could be a missing folder bug.
if it crashes when the drive is turned off.
i generally dont use removable firewire drives to hold media files.
