[cartooncrafter]

that happens to me alot mostly because of mods not correctly installed so try getting a fresh install of minecraft and technic then see what happens

[James Cooper]

Hi, I have just tried that but doesn't seem to make any difference. Still has the same error message. Thanks anyway.

[The_DarthMoogle]

Update Java to Java7u6,

and get a fresh copy of the launcher.

[James Cooper]

Ok, this may seem like a stupid question but how do I update to Java7u6 on a mac? Not on software update.

[The_DarthMoogle]

Oooh, I'm being a total fool. That update is really new.

Lemme have some dinner, and I'll be right back.

[James Cooper]

ok, thanks.

[XPhoenix_DownX]

well this wasn't very helpful. I mean it looks like everyone is just guessing what the problem is or Like some dude that has half a clue just being a d*ck about not searching the forums.. which I did, still not helpful.. So does anyone have a real answer?

[The_DarthMoogle]

Arse, can't believe I missed that -.-

You're using an out of date launcher.

Good day.

Oh, and Phoenix?

You're an ass.

You don't get a good day from me.

[James Cooper]

Ok, thanks. Only how do I get a more upto date launcher? I only downloaded the launcher for the first time 2 days ago, from the frontpage of the website.

[James Cooper]

Having just said that tried it and it worked a treat. I think the problem was instead of waiting for the automatic download i was clicking the mac button and this was giving me an old version. Is this something that needs to be fixed in the future?

Thanks again!

The launcher only recently came out of beta, which is the version you were using.
