LiveCode and Yosemite

[Mark Waddingham]

Hi Devin,

I suspect you are being hit by the acing and non-maintained carbon nature of pre 6.7. As Mac has evolved, carbon has become increasingly unstable - to be far it was deprecated about 6 years ago!

I'd try in 6.7 first and see if that clears up the issues. If not file a bug report or two :)
