Minecraft Forums

Hi there.
I have made a Hackintosh this morning, and needless to say, I downloaded Minecraft because I had it on my PC and loved it.

Honestly, I wasn't expecting any issues, and I was about to put on Mo'Creatures and then I found out that my Minecraft wouldn't start, as it kept crashing.

Crash Report:

Minecraft has crashed!

If anyone is familiar with this error, and knows how to fix it, please help me!

Thank you in advance, even though I'll probably like thank- you later.

Do you have the correct drivers installed for the graphics card?
You can also attempt to update LWJGL

I attempted to update LWJGL, but it did something to my launcher. It had all of these funny characters there instead of the news.

Auto updater is broken for Macs, if you were using that.

No, I did it manually.

Quote from cestislife

What were the funny characters? Can you grab a screenshot?

Yeah, just give me like 5 minutes because I deleted my minecraft folder.

I did it again, and there are no longer any funny characters. I guess the problem was that I did not put 'lib' in front of the one file's name.
Booted Minecraft up, and now it's just a black screen after I pressed Login.
