    ...and problems with reinstall

    spec:
    Mac OS X 10.6.4
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Unity Plugin version: 2.6.1f3
    Graphics
    NVIDIA GeForce 320M
    VRAM 256 MB
    Resolution 1280 x 800
    32 bit color

    i have this error:

    "Error Launching Unity Player", then there is a "Show Error Details" button and "Install Manually" button next to it, clicking on show error, it also shows the website name and below it "failed to create unity loader" and an ok button which I can click on and the little window screen dissapears, the install manually button takes me to the Unity Web Player download webpage but i already reinstalled 5- 10 times by now...
    the question is how to uninstall what i have already and how to clean install everything again to get the player to work again?


    thanks!

    it worked before, now i am just trying to clean install it again...

    i don't think it is a bug, it just seems that something is screwed on my computer

    I experience the exact same problem as described above.
    When i visit the unity live demos gallery only the bootcamp demo works.
    Ive done trashing prefs and reinstalling a few times but that didnt help.
    I asked a friend to also check it on his Macbook and he has the same problem.
    Any help most welcome, thanks.

    My Setup :
    Unity Web Player Version
    Unity Plugin version: 3.0.0f5
    Unity Engine version: 2.6.1f3

    Macbook Pro 5.1
    System Version: Mac OS X 10.6.4 (10F569)
