Title: Mac Bit Miner Help Post by: hotdogsafari on March 29, 2013, 12:35:57 PM Sorry to post a new thread, but I'm very confused about this and can't find a sufficient answer through searching, although I only spent two hours looking and trying things to be fair.
I am looking for software to get me started on bit coin mining that's compatible with Mac OS. I've tried RPC Miner and I can't get it to actually mine. It just gives me errors. I've tried Diablo Miner and I can only find the windows version. I've tried bitminter, but I don't really know what that jnlp file is. It just opens up my app store and then doesn't do anything after that. Any help or directions to a tutorial would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

"Could not retrieve work from RPC server. CURL return value = 7" Is there a way I can just open a Java file? My computer just keeps opening the app store when I try to run it. I must have Java installed because it shows the java logo for the file. Either way, I appreciate the replies. Title: Re: Mac Bit Miner Help Post by: hotdogsafari on March 29, 2013, 08:39:06 PM Never mind about Java. I just needed to update it I guess. Updating apparently means that I have to download some other thing and I can't use it in Chrome. I guess this seems like a bit more annoyance than its worth. Any tips on fixing the RPCMiner problem?
