After using the program all day it finally crashed just as I was trying to save a session and I didn't get the crash message. I restarted the program and as soon as I tried to open a file the program crashed. I tried shutting my computer down and this didn't help so I deleted that version of chimera from my computer and downloaded it again. After reinstalling the program I still have the same problem and now I'm a bit stumped! I have a lot of work saved in session files from today and I can't seem to get the program to run at all. I am using a new 15 inch Macbook pro (OSX 10.6.2). Any suggestions?</span></span></span></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="sans-serif, sans-serif"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px;"><br></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="sans-serif, sans-serif"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px;">Thanks,</span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="sans-serif, sans-serif"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px;">Dave</span></font></div></div></blockquote></div></div><div apple-content-edited="true"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br></span><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></div></span> </div><br></div></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
