Hello, Michael,
I don't know, I'm stumped from the information you've given. Which system software version are you using? You haven't changed Tcl/Tk at all?
*If* you want to wipe things completely and reinstall with the extended installer, there are four things to delete: /Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework /usr/local/pd ...and the various Pd and TclTk receipts (.pkg) in: /Library/Receipts
That ought to be enough to make sure you're doing a clean install and not an upgrade.
Oh, and just for good measure, try running "repair disk permissions" using Disk Utility.app. It's the equivalent of the zap PRAM/rebuild desktop voodoo magic we had to do in the nineties.
good luck! adam

Ok, I just tried to run the "non-extended" version of 0.36, and it appears to work.
Adam, what might I do to get things back to using the extended things? What things should I get rid of so that the installer will run?
Thanks,
Mike

Hello all,
I have been experiencing several slow-downs lately, and now all of a sudden, I can't open any PD windows. And, it also appears that none of the externals I have setup in my .pdrc file are not loading. I tried running without any .pdrc file, but nothing seems to change. PD starts up, opens up the audio control window, and then appears to stop. I can still call up any menus, but they don't really do anything once I select a file or something.
I did try to reinstall everything from the extended installer, but it seems to think that I have a newer version of PD installed, and it can not go back to an older version.
I did try to recompile PD after not being able to reinstall, but nothing seems to have changed. Externals still don't load (or at least they don't announce themselves), and PD still will not open any patches.
I even tried to run the 0.37 version I have, and it does the same thing as well. I am pretty sure that my problems are not related to my limited testing of 0.37, as these things started before I downloaded it. I didn't save any patches with it.
Does this sound like the problem might be a TK/TCL thing? How might I reinstall those parts. I got my version from Adam's extended installer.
Thanks,
Mike
