All Mac 10.4 users,

Please do following to let your XMind run fluently.

Open App Package's "Contents/MacOS" folder;
Use text editor to open "XMind.ini" file;
Add a new line in the end, and the content is: -
Djava.awt.headless=true

Sincerely!

Hi,

Right-click on XMind and choose Show Package Contents and then you
should be able to find it.

Hi All

Now, XMind 3.1 can run without modifying XMind.ini file.

Hi Sir

Please try:

1.Please find the xmind.ini file in your XMind(right click in the application data > show content package > content > Mac OS )

2.Then add below one line into xmind.ini file as the last line.

-Djavax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory=com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl

3.Save and restart XMind.


Sincerely!

Stephen

Stephen,
A very big thank you to you. Although the ini is hidden I found it by searching /contents/filename ini. I applied your code and I can run Xmind!

XMind should be ok on Lion. Could you take one more try to re-install xmind again?
Of course not, every version does have ini file. You can see it at
Application folder / XMind (right click)/Show Package Contents/Contents/Resources/XMind/Show Package Contents/Contents/MacOS

Hi Stephen
I had Xmind 3.2.0 (I am not sure about the number version) running smoothlessly on MacOs 10.4.11 and had a message to update; unfortunately I didn't get any warning that latest version CAN'T run on MacOs 10.4.11.
So I uninstalled 3.3.0 and searched for the previous version which I re-installed.
Problem is that Xmind version I have now on my 10.4.11 just don't work; it freezes soon after launching and I am not even able to check what version number it is. The only thing I can do is to force quit the application.
Also I carefully looked into the application package but I can't find any Xmind.ini file, so I am stuck with Xmind not working at all.
Can you help me sorting it out? I really need Xmind working on my (old) laptop!!!!
thanks
Fabio
