MAC OSX Mavericks - Program Installed won't Launch

Post by tjmichaelsLou »

A program was installed on the Mac using Wine and will not launch from either the terminal or App folder (a app version was created using Wine Bottler). All of the MS Runtime files are installed using Winetricks. When either clicking on the app from the applications folder or from the terminal open tutor6.exe the icon in the dock will jump up and down for a few seconds and go away. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Try to remove all the files and reinstall it. May be few files have been missed during installation.

You don't need a special program to show hidden files on mac. Open terminal and type the following:

To show files:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE; killall Finder;

To hide files
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE; killall Finder;

Guys guys guys, wait. I know what is wrong
First you need right prefix. Find out what your app need like .net framework or something and include it in winetricks. I would suggest ticking the notepad winetricks. Wait for sometime. then another window can come saying wine. try it dude.
