First topic message reminder :

Whenever I try and get on the server this is what happens.

yeah i got exactly the same. How much initiative does it take to google "where is minecraft.jar in mac"

Open Finder.app
Click “Go” in menubar
Then choose “Go to folder…”
Type in “~/Library/Application Support/Minecraft/bin” (without quotes)


Then do what jeff and i said.

and also, from the video jeff posted it sorta looks like there is a force update on macs...

i found the force update on minecraft but nothing changed.

i give up -.-

You found it 2 days after EQ posted exactly where it was AND after you said it wasn't there.... You have to stop with the "it's a Mac, not a PC" stuff. It's the basic same premise.


So....you're not going to do the steps I said from the beginning that would have solved this problem from the start?

Honestly... I don't understand why I keep giving you the steps to fix this, and you keep declining to do them. It will take you longer to read this post then to update it. I just can't understand that it has taken this long to simply update the mincraft.jar file. It's a simple download, replace.... That's it. Nothing more. Fixed.

Last time, here is the file http://assets.minecraft.net/12w04a/minecraft.jar

Down load it, follow the steps I posted above to find your minecraft/bin folder....and put it there. That's it....


Why is this so hard?

She's 15 and dyslexic, Jeff, cut her some slack.

Trust me, I know your frustration from past attempts to help her with homework, but the understanding of varying processes and steps itself doesn't come easy to her because of her dyslexia. She's also very far from tech-savvy as well..

But, it being a Mac, does make it slightly harder to mess with, as file locations won't be 100% the same, nor will varying built-in programs used to locate said locations. I can use "Run" and find it, or since I have a Windows 7, I can use the search bar in the start menu, she can't. So while the game itself may be the same, the files themselves won't be 100% exact.

I understand all that. My point is I posted where to find what's needed on a Mac. And posted a video for the Mac. I know the pc file locations are different, so that's why I looked up the Mac locations for her....

all that pisses me off is

1. "There is no foce update key"
2. "Does this help?"
3. "MY MAC DOES NOT HAVE THAT"
4. "Ah right i found it but no thanks to that screenshot you posted that explained it super easy"
