Video is probably private ? Cant open/view.

Do you get some kind of a Mac Report window when trying to open VirtualDJ ?

Try to rename your settings.xml file in /Documents/VirtualDJ folder to oldsettings.xml and open VirtualDJ again. If it opens, send us the oldsettings.xml file (upload the file and send link via PM or email at babis@virtualdj.com) to take a look.


no mac report will send ..remaned settings.xml to steeingsold.xml now when i click on any music folder it crashes

The crash appears to be related to a corrupt jpeg file.
Could you try to clear the Documents\VirtualDJ\Cache\Covers folder?

When you say it crashes when selecting any folder with music in, are those "real" folders or Crates ?
BTW, i emailed you with some instructions to provide some info/data to reproduce.
