AutoCad 2014 for Mac missing Tool Sets

[Anonymous]

Hey guys. Sorry as this may be a newbie question but can't find any help online regarding this matter. I am using AUTOCAD 2014 and my tool palette is not visible. I have tried re-downloading it many times, resetting aplication options and resetting palettes. Still not working. Even my teachers at school can't seem to help. I am working on a 13' MacBook Pro late 2011 model running OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)

Many thanks

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi,
Can you see AutoCAD menu (File, edit, View, etc.)? And about ToolSets palette: do you see it empty (without buttons)?

Hi Maxim thanks for replying.

Yes I have the full menu across the top of the screen but don't see the palette at all on the screen even though in the window tab it is ticked. Cmd+1 doesn't bring it up.

Thanks again

Have you tried the solution from this topic?

Hi Ross,
If you can see menu, than ignore my last message here.
Have you tried to reset AutoCAD settings from AutoCAD preferences?

What if you choose "display palettes as icons"? Can you see ToolSets in this case?

I did try this previously on another attempt when I wasn't getting the menu options either and it helped with that but no tool palettes still. I will try it again on this download and get back to you.

Thanks

Hi Maxim

I have tried to reset yes and no joy. Also tried resetting palettes. If I select show as icons a thin strip appears on the left of the screen. Maybe 5mm wide. It looks like there is something off screen but have checked and nothing there.

Thanks

As you can see there is a strip on the left buy nothing there when it's reduced. Also the tool palette is on.

Hi Ross,

There is one file you can try to delete (move to safe place) : profile.aws
It is inside your home Library folder, inside AutoCAD Support folder, in the same place where.CUI files are placed.
Quit AutoCAD, try to trash it (or move to the different location) then start AutoCAD again.
