Well, thats a bit sensationalist, but its true. I was running aMule overnight, it basically filled my harddrive, and fried it. Now I bought a new MacBook and I transfrerred all of the old preferences and application support, etc files to my new computer. Now when I try to launch aMule, it just crashes instantly. I now theres a preferences file or something I need to erase, but where is it??

Hi viborg!

Could you please start a aMule in a terminal?

This should be done somehow like this:

• Open Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal.
• Drag the aMule application icon from wherever you keep it and drop it onto the terminal window. Terminal will insert the path to the application onto the command line. It will also add a space after the path.
• Delete the space at the end of the path.
• Add "/Contents/MacOS/amule" to the end of the path and press return.

Then post the output here (if it is too long attach the output in a text file) to see what's wrong.

For configuration files, see ~/Library/Application Support/aMule.
File that you should keep are preferences.dat and cryptkey.dat. In doubt create a new folder named 'backup' and move everything but these two files inside and try to start aMule.

No need to launch Terminal, I found the configuration files. Thanks a million!

Could you please do it anyway? I think it would be interesting to know why it wont start.
