You obviously aren't qualified because Apple Java 6 is a thing. It comes preinstalled on all old OS X software. You really need to stop embarrassing yourself. You can find it on the oracle website. No I have not heard of MLP and I dont think I would enjoy ponies with horns. I am done arguing with you. You can't seem to admit that you were wrong. You can take that pony's horn and shove it. Please refrain from addressing Mac issues unless you do additional research or familiarize yourself with the materials. Windows, Linux and OS X are very different, and so are the problems that the three systems face. As for Andrew's problem, Go to settings when you pull up the launcher, and check the box labeled "PermGen Size". You will then be prompted to restart the launcher. Press "Ok" and the launcher will restart. That seemed to fix the problem for me.

First of all, "Drops Phone, Grabs Keyboard" should also be between asterisks. Secondly, why don't you scroll down the forum and read one of the hundreds of threads where mac users complain that Java 7 is not compatible with the launcher and detailed responses explaining how to reinstall Apple Java 6. Lastly, solving bugs as a programmer or even just suggesting solutions is ALL about putting two and two together. Identifying common symptoms and simple solutions requires a little guesswork at times and if you aren't willing to do that you shouldn't be here in the first place. As for solutions to the OP's problem, I have none. I am currently experiencing this bug myself and I am browsing the forums for any and all suggestions. The problem is not, I will repeat it for you, IS NOT Java related. Ps. If the "pony" has a horn its a unicorn, so you are even mistaken about your own avatar. Its time for you to lick your wounds and go home.

Apparently you are illiterate. I stated above that Java 6 is the RECOMMENDED version of Java for Mac users. Its is true that there are newer versions, however, the Technic Launcher is not compatible with Java 7 on the Mac. People who have already installed Java 7 have had to downgrade. So once again, I ask you to refrain from giving advice to users whose predicaments you are not familiar with. As for his "operating system" I think we can all put 2 and 2 together and assume that he is using the preinstalled OS on his piece of hardware. He obviously made a mistake, there is no reason to badger him about it, and if you recognize that it is not an operating system, why would you address it as such?

Vivacity you must not have a mac... Please don't post here if you don't know that Java 1.6 is Apple Java 6 and recommended for Mac users playing Tekkit... There is an OSx version of the launcher so I don't understand why you would say that his OS is "Not supported".

Launcher Version: Build 253 OS: OSx 10.7.5 (Mac) Java: error occurs while using Java 6 or Java 7. The error is not dependent upon Java version. AV: None The reports show a "successful" launch of the game and are therefore useless. No error reports are displayed on the screen. The launcher simply crashes after selecting a modpack. 1) Launcher window opens and is labeled with incorrect file name ("start" instead of "techniclauncher.exe"). 2) Modpack is selected. 3) Minecraft account information is entered in the prompt box. 4) Launch button is clicked. 5) Modpack updates are checked for and loaded. 6) New blank white window is opened in place of launcher window. 7) Blank window idles for approximately 3-4 seconds. 8) Window closes and application crashes.

What he means to say is that he is experiencing a bug, that crashes the launcher instead of opening the selected modpack. The window is labeled "Start" instead of the usual "techniclauncher.exe".

Mine never loads. Ever. I get just as far as dolphins and the blank white page ALWAYS crashes ;( I havent been able to play Tekkit in over 3 months.

I actually just installed Java 7. I was already having this problem with Apple Java 6. Startup has not changed one bit since I updated either... http://www.java.com/en/download/help/mac_uninstall_java.xml I followed the instruction exactly and That didnt change anything.

Exact. Same. Problem. ;( It has been over 6 months since I have been able to play Tekkit. I have already suffered from withdrawls and I died a little on the inside. Launcher loads fine, no error report, but the modpacks crash before loading. Even Vanilla will not load from launcher. OSx is 10.7.5 no AV launcher 246 Java 7 Any reply is appreciated, Even if you are just saying that you have the same problem. I know we arent the only ones, and If we can draw attention to the problem, perhaps we can get it fixed with the help of someone with more TECHNICal experiecne. (See what I did there lol).

When I use the go to tool in finder, it tells me that the folder java does not exist... Any help will be appreciated greatly. So I found the folder under HD, and I deleted its contents. My problem has NOT resolved itself. Only the start icon will appear. Is there something that I am missing or have forgotten? 2013/06/08 11:54:54 [iNFO] Launcher took: 3814ms to start 2013/06/08 11:55:04 [iNFO] ------------------------------------------ 2013/06/08 11:55:04 [iNFO] Technic Launcher is starting.... 2013/06/08 11:55:04 [iNFO] Launcher Build: 246 2013/06/08 11:55:04 [iNFO] ------------ Startup Parameters ------------ 2013/06/08 11:55:04 [iNFO] --------- End of Startup Parameters --------- 2013/06/08 11:55:06 [iNFO] Loaded face 2013/06/08 11:55:07 [iNFO] Starting download of http://skins.technicpack.net/helm/Shadow1752/100, with 3 tries remaining 2013/06/08 11:55:07 [iNFO] Launcher took: 3481ms to start 2013/06/08 11:55:16 [iNFO] Maximum usable memory detected: 4096 mb

Me too! glad Im not the only one. I want so far as to delete my old Launcher, Delete my minecraft and everything else in the folder, and then reinstall. OSx 10.7.5 Launcher 246 I should have java 6 but im not certain. no antivirus Even Vanilla will not load P.S. I thought that it might be helpful to add that after I have selected a modpack in the Launcher, A blank, white window opens. After a few seconds of no activity, the window closes and the launcher is no longer open.

The problem started while I was using java 6 apple. Java 7 isnt the problem for me. The problems began when U updated the launcher to the version where custom zips were enabled. Its been going on for a number of months. I have already tried downgrading java and reinstalling 6.

Also Iapologize in advance, I am not very good with programming, as soon as the smooth UI falters im lost. :(

I feel as though the problem is not fixed or there is a different problem that is equally severe plaguing the community. Im a mac user w/ latest OS. I have tried everything applicable on the common problems page, and the launcher still wont work. The Youtube link that Goizzo shared above is the identical to the problem that I have. Here is the log from the launcher too. I'm not sure how to interpret it so any help that anyone can offer would be great! thanks!
