Do a search for 10.6.8 theres a manual fix for that library...but i had thought roberto fixed it...either way should be an easy fix.

[jack]

i am not at all coding person

so 10.6.8 what you said didnt made me understood what is this

can you please elaborate with details

sorry this might be funny i dont know the abc of coding but thanks for the help

That has nothing to do with libraries....
It's a specific to MacOSX 10.6.8
Later versions of MacOSX don't have this problem...

It's pretty simple to fix though...
Open your terminal and use the following commands:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/lib
sudo ln -s libedit.2.dylib libedit.3.dylib

[jack]

got it

but it says i need password now what password to give ?? my laptop doesnt have any sort of password

[rimai]

Whatever password your Mac is setup.
If you don't have one, don't know it or want to change it, google "sudo password mac"

[lnevo]

Its your account password...if you dont know go to the settings app and go to users/accounts and change your password

[jack]

it says done uploading and rebooting the reefangel controller

how long does it usually takes ??
