With regards to CPU Miner it is indeed Pooler's CPU Miner and I think the problem is either libz being linked to /opt/ or an incomplete implementation of CPU temp readings in the beta version - both work for me, but are those experiencing these crashes running 1.3 or 1.4? As I said in the other thread, I tried with 1.4.5 on Mac OS X 10.7.5.

Could you please give it a shot with stable 1.3.17? I'm pretty sure that will work for you until I get the beta version updated, I was in the middle of making changes to CPUMiner when I pushed the latest beta as I wanted to get BFG Miner 3.1.3 out there, and the 3.1.3 download I posted will work in the beta but the cpuminer from the new version may not work in the old one.
I'll focus on making 1.4 branch stable for now so I can sort this out for everyone!

I should have add that (on Lion) I cannot use 1.3.17 stable because cgminer errors with the following message: dyld: Library not loaded: /Applications/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/curl/lib/libcurl.4.dylib Referenced from: /Applications/MacMiner stable/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/cgminer/bin/cgminer Reason: Incompatible library version: cgminer requires version 8.0.0 or later, but libcurl.4.dylib provides version 7.0.0 It seems that the dynamic loader cannot load Lion's libcurl library because MacMiner has been compiled targeting Mountain Lion and greater. Another little glitch is that clicking on the question mark icon in the cgminer window does nothing, both in v1.3.17 and v1.4.5.

Oh, I'm sorry, forget this since I didn't notice your bold alert in the first post and it happens only when MacMiner.app has been renamed or installed on a path different than /Applications, indeed.

A problem I am having with 1.3.17 is it will randomly stop mining. The start button shows when I discover this. If there a command that can be added that detects its stopped and starts it again?
In linux I use: while true; do ./bfgminer; sleep 20; done
If it gets interrupted for any reason it just restarts 20 seconds later. this has saved me countless times. I believe the miner stops when the network connection is interrupted for some reason.
Any solutions?

MacMiner MUST be in your Applications folder and named MacMiner.app to function properly Regarding this, why not use install_name_tool and @loader_path macro to fix the issues with the dependent libraries paths of the main executable? It's just a suggestion, unfortunately for a few weeks I won't have the time to learn GitHub and try to modify the MacMiner Xcode project by myself. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)

I'll add a feature to restart the miner automatically too and change the ? help screens to show the same help window then update the 10.6 version in line!

This error has prevented me from using the macminer to mine litecoins.
dyld: Library not loaded: /Applications/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/curl/lib/libcurl.4.dylib Referenced from: /Users/hollyschneider/Downloads/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/bfgminer/bin/bfgminer Reason: Incompatible library version: bfgminer requires version 8.0.0 or later, but libcurl.4.dylib provides version 7.0.0
Would anyone be able to explain to me what to do in order to fix this?

Please move MacMiner.app to your Applications folder. This should be fixed in the next version!

I think I'll go with a new window, it could be good to have all the miners together for people using more than one (like me!). Larger numbers of devices are a bit tricky but with a few sort options it should work well…
It would be great to see the multiple miners show their stats together for all my devices mining on the same box, especially if they were connected to different pools and mining different coins (i.e., Bitcoin & Litecoin)! Can't wait for the above feature (literally) ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) So.... I checked out the default PHP api example provided with BFGMiner by default and it's actually pretty extensive/complete (at least for just BFGMiner tracking alone). I did a quick setup and customization on my local mining controlling box... enabled authenticated remote access... and now I can check the status of my Bitcoin mining remotely from any web browser and it even comes with a mobile view. Only took me 45min or so connected remotely to my box via iPad by a swimming pool (it was a nice sunny day). ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fdl.dropboxusercontent.com%2Fu%2F11139673%2Fmining_status_1.png&t=665&c=yCFpKqb-n0YoAQ) And here's a bigger view of what's provided in the API PHP page: http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11139673/mining_status.pngI'd still like to see an implementation worked into MacMiner with support for the various miners, but this will have to suffice for now. Also, I posted a video of my installation of 6 new ASICMiner USB Block Erupters (in addition to my previous 2) and it somewhat features your MacMiner software as well http://youtu.be/hGYwCDXLrdQ

That's pretty awesome, thanks! I'm curious about the lack of a temperature reading though, do you know whether the units have temp sensors?
McMiner actually uses the C API to get the temperature for the FPGA/ASIC window, I definitely have plans to introduce a native display of that, but I guess in the meantime it would be quick and easy just to include the php version in a window. I'll try to get that in to the next version!
1.4.6 beta just out is moving towards not needing to be in the Applications folder, I may have missed one or two references in the app but I want to know whether it works properly for everyone.
It also updates bfgminer to the 3.1.3 version i posted before, and BFG Miner and FPGA/ASIC Miner windows now restart automatically if the miner stops unexpectedly. If everything is good the next version will also restart if you have over 100 and over 50% rejected shares. A notification will popup to let you know what happened and when. When that's done I'll release a new 10.6 version.
Let me know how it goes please guys!

Yeah, no temp sensor on the Block Erupters... ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Hopefully I'll be able to make good use of your Temp reading in MacMiner when I get my BFL units.... Sometime in 2025 or so. *sigh*

I'm trying to run MacMiner 1.4 , for 10.6.8, on a late 2006 Mac Mini, it's got the original 1.66 CoreDuo processor. I've downloaded it and once extracted the app has a circle/slash and if clicked upon gives a message that this app is not supported on this type of mac. I've just skimmed through the entire thread looking for something specific to this and nothing caught my eye. I was also looking for a link to an earlier version in the hopes that I could try that.

Hmm, I must have compiled without 32 bit support, the first few intel Macs were 32 bit - I'll look at fixing that in the next update, thanks for the report! Sucks not to have a temperature reading for those ASICs but I guess there's always the sensors in your hands ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I just got an upgraded Jalapeno order from September 2012 - had to get to the UK and through customs but it's hashing away nicely at almost 7.5Gh even on my p2pool node since the last update, it's running at just 44˚C with a 28˚ room temp so I'm hoping for a firmware update that's going to get a bit more out of it! the units are nice, once they arrive… looks a bit like the Apple TV on steroids!
