Tried to install FG3.2 - always errors out on start.
Other Mac users, what OS version and FG version are you running?
Bonus Q: pre-HD failure, I had a tweak in one of the main xml files (prefs, options, joystick, keyboard) that interpreted rudder motion as nose wheel steering while in contact with the ground. Can't find it in the forums (where I got it from, many many moons ago) - that is still an elusive search string.
Anyone else know of what I speak?
Thanks!

Probably what you had in your joystick file was something like:
<axis n="3"><!-- or whatever it is on YOUR joystick -->
<binding><condition><property>/gear/gear/wow</property></condition>
<!-- whatever you want to happen when it's on the ground (Weight On Wheels)-->
</binding>
<binding><condition><not><property>/gear/gear/wow</property></not></condition>
<!-- whatever you want to happen when it's in the air (NOT Weight On Wheels)-->

10.10.5 on a late 2013 iMac (GT750M), and have an old 2007 MBP with 10.11 on for basic functionality testing - I use it as a canary machine to test software on El Capitan
I have multiple versions installed from 2.10 to 3.7, most of the old ones now require the command line to run due to the removal of rubycocoa (used by the old launcher) - I have used FGo & FGx as alternative launchers, but the command line is quickest for me for testing - I adapted a script written by Tomaskom for multiple MP clients
I normally use 3.4 or 3.6RC - 3.6 has an annoying terrasync lockup bug, but other than that it works great

Yes that really is a drag with 3.6. I normally disable Terrasync on 3.6. I use the UFO on 3.4 to "harvest" scenery in advance before going anywhere new. I don't think this is a Mac-specific problem though.
