Mac 5.11 (and 5.10) frequently hangs

Former Member
Former Member over 14 years ago

Hi!

 

I've just started using Eagle on Mac (10.6.7, Macbook Air with 2 Gb ram, 1.4 GHz Core 2 Duo) and it frequently hangs in the library

window (add command). I have to kill the process. I've waited for 30 minutes which seems "long enough" for a library lookup:-)

 

One that makes it hang every time is "resistor"; I tried downloading the updated resistor_3rdPin_v20.lbr but I get same result.

For these two, I cannot even click on the arrow to expand the library view with the components. (Naturally, I can do so on all the other

libraries I've tried, including the other resistor-libraries.)

 

Any hints?

 

I'm going to try this on a Windows machine to see if that works, but that's not really a solution for me.

    I followed the other response and did "use -*" and then I tried opening

    the resistor.lbr library.

    Works fine as far as I can tell.

     

    However, when I put it back and did "use resistor.lbr" followed by

    "add", eagle hangs as soon

    as I click on resistor.lbr. It even hangs when I do "add" and click on Cancel.

     

    However, I can do "add r-eu_r0805" and add devices to my schematic.

     

    Something is wrong in the library viewer.

     

    Anyway, I have none of these issues in the in the windows version.

     

    Is there anything I can send you to help you pin this down?

    Could you please send me the library file that makes problems and

    the configuration file  .eaglerc  which should be in your home

    directory?

    Send it to the email address mentioned in the signature.
