Hi I'm sure this is probably in an inappropriate forum but I cant get processing working, have downloaded it, transfered to apps. It opens fine, but even without any code entered when I press play i ge this error message (any help much appreciated!) :

Could not run the sketch.

[0] "Unrecognized option: -d32"
[1] "Could not create the Java virtual machine."

Using startup command:

Let me guess (since you don't specify it): you test this on Snow Leopard, no? There are already a number of messages about this issue, it seems related to 1.0.7 release, try installing the previous version.
If I am wrong (I don't own a Mac), please somebody corrects me.

Unfortunately no, I'm running the (presumably latest) downloadable version on OS X Tiger 10.4.

Are there previous versions of Processing somewhere I could try out?

Hold that, got it sorted, found the older versions, apparently I just need a really old one!

Thanks for helping anyhow. L.

Ah, so perhaps it is the way around, the latest version having fixes for Snow Leopard that don't work on other versions of OSX. I admit I have read these threads quite quickly...

The Download page still gives the link to 1.0.6.

That's a problem with OS X 10.4, which is fixed in release 1.0.8.

However we're discontinuing support for OS X 10.4, please upgrade to 10.5 or 10.6
