autocad 2012 starting problem

I have an imac i7, 2 gb of graphics card and lions. I installed AutoCAD 2012 but when i want to launch it, after some second the application is closed and I have this message: the application does not respond , I have tried everything ... Can you help me?

I also installed on another macbook and it works perfectly with lion ..

Hi,

I have your same problem. I tried to install the trial version directly from autodesk site, but it doesn't work on my Imac 27" with Lion. Indeed, on my macbook pro with Lion autocad works well, so I don't know which is the problem.

I hope someone help us.

Bye bye

Hi,

 

Please, open Console.app and then try to start AutoCAD. What do you see in system.log at this moment?

Not sure exactly, but if you have some Adobe software on your Mac (where you can not start AutoCAD) - have you tried this solution:

 

AutoCAD for MAC and Adobe software

Are you sure you are looking in right place?

Double check: “FLEXnet Publisher” folder is inside MacintoshHD/Library/Preferences folder, but not in ~/Library/Preferences folder (the Library folder inside your Home folder)

 

Are you installing AutoCAD on your Mac for the first time?

Haven't you migrated from another Mac with AutoCAD already installed?
