Many thanks for the replies Andrew

I second pbacot. Enthusiasm got the better of me and I bought it without really looking into it. Have had problems trying to sign in on Mobile viewer; then not able to sign in so I can upload from my Mac and then when I have somehow downloaded a couple of other people's models on to my iPad to take a look, there doesn't seem to be any instructions on how to delete/remove them - I can't find a walkthru within the app. Odd.

Thanks allmanbro for the uninstallation app. I used it, uninstalled Podium and now SketchUp closes as it should do - I no longer have to Force Quit so there is something buggy in Podium. Shame!

Thanks for your replies. I think it is a Podium problem as mentioned above as I have to force quit every time. I will remove all and try a fresh reinstall. Cheers

Hmmm, this time it crashed but that was because I used the revert facility. This is a separate problem which has been happening for a while but it all feels a little fragile!!

Yep, I removed V2 first before upgrading. Am trying to finish a drawing at the moment so will see if I have to force quit later. Cheers.

Hi Oli,

Yep it's V2 plus. Think I might try reinstalling and see if that sorts it.

Hello All,

Finally transferred/upgraded SU Podium V2 to my SU pro 2014 on new Mac last week and not sure if it is a coincidence but it appears to be that ever since SU won't close down and I have to Force Quit. Has anyone else come across this? Think I might disable Podium anyway as I rarely have the time to achieve renders and Piranesi tends to get the point across because of the arty/cartoony feel? How would I completely remove Podium - is it thru Library/Application Support etc? I'm on Mavericks. Cheers.

Seems to be the revert function that is causing the bugsplat

Hi Chris,

This is not exactly a crash as such but every time I go back open Layout and go to open a recent document, I get the drop down every time that states that there is a newer version of the drawing even when I know there is no newer version. It doesn't matter which button you click "OK"; "UPDATE" etc - nothing happens, it freezes. I have to quit Layout as it doesn't report a crash - reopen it and then go to the menu bar and open recent files from there.
It must be a bug as it has never happened with my previous versions.
Thanks.

Hello Chris,

I'll submit the next crash - mostly when it's at work it's not the first priority! I've never suffered Bugsplat in five years on a Mac - plenty on PC before that - and only since upgrading to SU Pro 2013 so hopefully it is teething problems. Cheers.

Thanks for the update Michael. As a further update, i was using Photo Match on SU Pro 2013 yesterday, crashed twice but despite saving it still reopened the file after the crash with the photograph partially blacked out. went back to SU Pro 7 and so far no problems - not exactly progress though. Might switch to using Moi 3D with Layout.

Was drawing the rectangle in Sketch-Up when Bugsplat occurred. Have now reverted to saving after every action just in case..

Am using SU Pro 2013 and Mac Osx 10.7.5

Thanks

I've never had a bugsplat on a mac in five years until I upgraded to SU Pro 2013. Had several now, in fact, I just started a new visual, drew a rectangle, typed in 16', 9' and it crashed! Bit worrying!

Update: Just started a new visual - typed in a rectangle - 16', 9' - Bugsplat - crashed

Finding a few bugs in SU Pro 2013 and starting to get pretty cheesed off. Never had a bugsplat on a Mac until now, had plenty on PC years back but none until now. It tends to happen when I am undoing an action in SketchUp. I only have one plugin which is Podium V2. Also, models won't update in Layout when I have made alterations to the SU model. The box tells me that there is a newer version but clicking either OK or Update freezes Layout. Also, dimensions are proving to be a bit temperamental i.e. I'm trying to put a floorplan out for a client but when I go to add dimensions to a 1/4" model, the dimension tool is actually measuring the paper so a 23' wall is coming out at 7". I don't know why this is happening but would be grateful of any advice. Thanks.

I used to suffer from BugSplats when using SU5 on a pc years ago. Switched to Mac in 2008 and never had a problem since until this week whilst using 2013 Pro when it has crashed twice whilst doing simple floor plans. The only plugin I've loaded so far is SU Podium which I used to use on previous versions but used my licence key to download the latest version. teething problems with SU2013 Pro maybe?

I used to suffer BugSplats when I used SU5 on a pc years ago. Since switching to Mac 5 years ago never had a problem. However, I've had two bugsplats this week whilst working on simple floor plans. Very odd!

Thanks Dave

Thanks Dave. My problem is that I have no folders for either 'Styles' or 'Plugins.' Can I create them & paste my old styles in? Will SU Pro 2013 recognise them as styles?

Thanks
