      Preferences open from the Sketchup menu on Mac (AFAIK).

        Hi Gai...

        Yes I know. But there is no settings for paths. You can set the export location when exporting.

          And are you sure you are looking for the file where you create/save it? I know stupid question but I'm a PC users and just stabbing in the dark.

          Any Mac users can chime in?

              What I guess is that maybe your installation was corrupt. Could you try a reinstall?

                Done that, no effect 😒
                Maybe I have to try to uninstall complete and then reinstall - who knows ...
                I have also sent a message to SketchUp support let's see if they have any new suggestions.
                I have the version 6 still installed. Hopefully that doesn't cause any problems with the new version.

                  They can both run safely along each other.

                    This morning after the computer had been shut down over the night I was able to export once. After this it stopped working again 😲

                    Non-English characters tested - No effect.
                    The problem occurs with all files.
                    Using standard export settings.
                    Uninstalled and re-installed and shut down the computer - no effect.
                    Deleted the plist (com.google.sketchuppro7.plist) - no effect....

                    😠

                      PROBLEM SOLVED

                      Sketchup 7 can't export (DWG/DXF) to folders with non-English characters. Sketchup 6 have no problems with this 😮

                        Dammit. If I knew that I could've filed a decent bug report on it - my problem is that at home I only have an English OS and keyboard so never noticed.

                          It must be a Mac bug - I tried on my XP Home Finnish system, and I was able to export both to the desktop ("Työpöytä") and to a folder named "Hääyöaie"

                            Yes propably. MAC seems to have some problems with scandinavian characters (öäå...). I have also problems with mail attachments including non-english charracters.

                              You Nailed it, this is a known issue on our part about non-English characters handling on the Mac.

                              We are working on it.
