LiveCode University install on Mac

Post by sharp » Sun Aug 18, 2013 4:24 am

I am failing on the install of LiveCode University.

Failure occurs when dmg displays LiveCode University.app and the Applications folder and I attempt to drag the app to the displayed Applications folder icon.

Message:

The alias "Applications" can't be opened because the original outcome can't be found.

Gives me option to "Delete Alias" "Fix Alias" or "OK"

Does not seem to matter what I choose
All suggest I do not have enough privileges to
modify the applications folder.

But I can manually insert files in the Applications folder and I can run other dmg files.

Try just dragging the app directly into your Applications folder. You don't need to use the alias on the dmg.

Sorry for the trouble, sharp. I'll check the alias on the installer dmg before the next release.

Thanks for helping out, Jacque.
