Mac OS: WU not pausing correctly

Anonymous
Topic 13094

Hm, I thougth we had this fixed by now (see the MacOS Beta test thread in Cafe Einstein). I'm currently runnning the 4.82 on 10.4.2 without problems, but not with Predictor. I'll give it a try and see what happens.

Oh, btw.: I think the AEI staff is as important for the project as the UWM :-)

Mac OS: WU not pausing correctly

I am running Predictor and Einstein on my PowerBook on 10.4.2 right now and haven't seen the problem yet.

I'll continue to look at this. If you get annoyed, try to set "leave applications in memory" in your preferences to "no".

RE: Alan, I had similar

Alan, I had similar problems with 4.43 to all the ones you've described. While I do NOT recommend development versions for everyone, in your specific case I think you need to move to version 4.72 (not 5.x because not all projects support it yet). When I started testing 4.72, I stopped seeing all the things you're describing.

Go here: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/

Download this: boinc_4.72_macOSX.zip

I had no problems installing just by quitting BOINC Manager then installing 4.72, although I _did_ backup the BOINC Data folder first - but I would recommend "no new work" all projects, let your cache empty, quit, backup folder, then install - just to be sure no work gets lost.

You could also try the most recent 5.2.1 development version.
