hi,
sorry if you are receiving this message again but it didn't appear to fly.
i keep getting a :
reading startup file: /users/local/.pdrc error parsing rc arguments
i am trying to load pure data. i had it going just fine on my old system. what's up?
the file seems to be in place etc. . .
i am trying to get the 0.38 build going but i just tried re-installing the extended build for osx. perhaps, this was a mistake.
i will be greatly indebted to any suggestions and help getting things going.
thanks

well, pd doesn't complain about not finding the file but rather about an error while parsing it. so probably you should post your .pdrc (or at least: look hard at it) to see what is wrong with it.
furthermore, please note, that as with pd>=0.38 the .pdrc is deprecated in favour of .pdsettings (which has a completely different syntax) (note: .pdsettings only applies for linux; on windows the configuration uses the registry; on osX the application-setting-system (or however it is called)) so probably you are best off by deleting the old .pdrc and start from scratch. (you can save the current settings via the File->Settings dialogue)

before i do something stupid. i have noticed that portaudio etc. . actually resides in a folder labeled internals inside the Pd folder : the original is in usr/local/Pd. but, the trouble is not finding the pdrc file . right ?
so, any glaring problems come to the surface? by starting from scratch i assume you mean just a new pdrc file.
also, if this helps. . . if i try running 0.37 [which is what i was trying in the first place] i get :
reading startup file: /Users/1001/.pdrc DigiCoreAudioDriver> Found 21 entries in 'SupportedApps.txt'. using default input device number: 0 using default output device number: 3 nchan 2, flags 3, bufs 8, framesperbuf 256 pd_gui: pd process exited /Applications/Pd.command: line 2: 1090 Segmentation fault /usr/local/pd/bin/pd -rt logout
thanks again for helping,
