Semagic on Mac

[quirrc]

There may be a reason why only few people used Semagic on Mac: WINE needed Xcode to be installed. It is 4GB in size. I installed it but then standard instructions did not work for me and Semagic was not working.
Also I installed Winebottler but it did not install ie6 which is required for WYSIWYG editor.
Then I found PlayOnMac and it seem to work

I am getting a different error this morning... its the 404 error.. resource not found! I too love Semagic and using it as my client so I hope it gets sorted out shortly! :D Thanks everyone for the work you all do to make this a good little program to use anyways!

I keep getting the same error that everyone else is getting. In the meantime, I'm typing up on Semagic and copy/pasting to LJ, as annoying as that is.

I'm having the same trouble with Semagic and getting logged in. Please let us know what we should do, if there's anything we can do. I suppose if LJ is aware of it there may be some action on it?

Also, thanks for all your hard work ON Semagic, I rely on it heavily and also recc it to all my friends.

При запуске не запускается, а выдаёт ошибку 404. Иногда 405. Что делать?

Do you know if Semagic works on 10.7?
I installed both Playonmac (seemed to install fine) and Semagic through your wonderfully thorough screen caps.
I can download my existing journal entries but the main screen won't let me edit any of them.
?? Is there a semagic manual I should read? It all seemed pretty self explanatory except nothing is editable.
? (that's in the WYSIWYG) screen or the HTML one.
Now this was editing an existing post, not sure how to start a new one from scratch and cut is not usable in the menu (greyed out) paste is, but nothing will paste in the main menu. I feel I'm missing the boat somewhere. : )
Any help/advice appreciated

What do you mean you cannot edit? You cannot open an entry from history in the main window? It is opened via right-click menu when you click on an entry in history. If in WYSIWYG mode you cannot type text that means you did not install ie6 package. That may be the reason also why cut and paste does not work in WYSIWYG mode.

Hi there,

the program seems to open fine, I can see and open all my previous posts (public and private) but when I go to edit one in the WYSWYG window nothing will move/edit/cut or paste.

I tried reinstalling ie6, nothing changed. I tried reinstalling from scratch all 4 of the add on programs and Semagic that you showed in your screen caps (I did install i.e. 6 the first time), still can't edit anything. I can edit now in the html window (I couldn't before) but when I go to view a link or preview it crashes.

I also get nothing when I hit the web button (down by html and WYSWYG) but maybe that's because I'm on a mac?

This is the last few lines of the PlayOnMac debugger:

fixme:mshtml:nsChannel_SetReferrer (0x1c5aa0)->(0x1ccda0)
fixme:shdocvw:ClOleCommandTarget_Exec Unimplemented group {000214d1-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}

Any thoughts? Is it being on OS 10.7.1?

Oh my god this is wonderful. I uninstalled everything instead of just adding i.e. and started from scratch and now EVERYTHING IS WORKING and it's freakin' awesome. I was able to fix a posting in LJ that absolutely REFUSED to be fixed in the LJ editor. This is so wonderful.

Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!
