Patcher won't go live

[s1thlord]

Hi I have just started trying to learn the patcher software to create a modular synth but my board won't go live although it does connect no problem and green led is stable

Thanks for replying,
i'm currently using Mavericks Osx on a mac book pro and the latest version of the patcher software.

can you check console log, and paste contents here

i just tried changing the usb lead just in case but that seems to have made no change.

looks like it cannot find the runtime, have you installed it as per instructions?

Installing on Mac OS X

Normal Installation To reduce size we split the application into two parts, the main axoloti application, and a runtime which contains other required files. You must download and install both initially. (Usually updates will only require the main application to be downloaded and installed.) download both application bundle and axoloti_runtime go to http://github.com/axoloti/axoloti/releases, you will see the 'latest release' download axo_runtime_osx_(version).dmg download axoloti_osx_(vers…

Hi There,
Thanks too all who have tried to help :))
i'm very sorry for long delays in thread i have very limited internet access so please accept my apologies.
Thankfully i have managed to get the board to go live (yaaay) by back dating to version 0.8, my mac wouldn't see runtime as an app and therefore i couldn't do anything with the download. However now i have the board live i'm loving the software very intuitive i am going to start a blog on github all about the project should anyone be interested i will post link as soon as i have created the repository :)).
CHEERS,
Chris

I dont understand this statement...
download this:

open it and you will get this:

now drag that folder into Applications (you may be asked for permissions)
like so....

the simply install 1.0.11

you certainly dont want to stay on 1.0.8, as that doesnt have all the communities goodies
