Hi @mjhabig,

 

Have you tried re-installing using the re-release of AutoCAD LT for Mac 2013? This download includes service pack 3 and addresses Yosemite compatibility issues. Please let us know how it goes! Thanks!

Hi,

Yes, in order to reinstall AutoCAD LT you need at first to uninstall it with "Remove AutoCAD LT.app", which you can find inside Autodesk folder in Applications folder. Than you need to download AutoCAD LT installer from the link provided by Jessica and install it again.
When uninstalling you can in-check "Leave my preferences" option to ensure that all settings will be resettled to defaults.

Does it crashes with all your files, even just created with few objects in the drawing?
How complex are your files? Xrefs? ...

I actually just opened a template from the new installation and it crashed. So nothing in the file at all. And my files are typically not very large or complex.

Autocad keeps crashing - I can't get any work done.  Can anyone offer a solution to this.

I have installed the Autcad 2013 with SP3 as instructed.  I have turned off screensaver, as I thought I saw that mentioned in an error report.

I need a fix as soon as possible!  

Thank you

Hi Mindy,

Can you reproduce the steps when it crashes?
If yes - please describe them.

I switched to the file structure that is NOT the columns and so far it is not crashing. ( I read that in another forum ) BUT - now when I copy and paste blocks they do not show as I am copying them - they very slowly redraw as I am pasting but eventually show up.  I cannot see where I am pasting and it slows the process way down.

Are these things related?  

When it crashed previously, I would open a drawing, start working and it would crash pretty quickly.

Thanks Maxim

update:

it just crashed as I was trying to change the command line.  The command line spreads clear across the bottom of the drawing and I can't enlarge it to see all of the command information/history.  I don't see a tool setting to change nor do I see a lock saying it is locked so I can unlock it.  

picutre of error is attached.

thx

Glad to hear that you have found the solution about Column view crashes, as about Command window- have you tried to use F2 key (or Fn+F2 if you have default settings for F- keys on MacBook) to show command history?
AutoCAD crashes when you are trying to "un-dock" Command window. Am I right?

Oh, yes! About block insertion problem: please verify system variable DRAGP1 - it should be equal 5000 (default value)

Hi Maxim

AutoCad crashes within 2 minutes of opening.  It is unusable at this point.  Do you have any other solutions at this time?  I have reinstalled the program twice.  Is there somewhere to find an error report to determine the cause?  I really need to resolve the issue!

(I changed the block DRAGP1 to 5000 for the block issue)

Thanks
Mindy

Does AutoCAD crashes if you simply launch it with empty drawing and do nothing, just wait?
Could you also provide your Mac specifications?

Ok, so I just opened a new drawing and it did not shut down while doing nothing for about 20 minutes.  I then started drawing and opening the preferences dialog box and it immediately shut down.  I have attached a snapshot of my Mac specs.

Sorry, I don't have any idea.
Do you get "Customer Error Report" window on each crash?
Did you send such error reports to Autodesk?

Not sure if this will help, but: can you try to create new user account on your Mac an try to use AutoCAD in it?

I have created a new user and installed AutoCAD there.  So far it is working but I have not imported any of my drawings to test yet. 

What would this indicate to be the problem with my user account and if there would be anything I can change to make it work with my account?

Thanks

Mindy

Hi Mindy,

It's hard to say about the reason without having access to your Mac. Could be a permissions problems- you wrote that AutoCAD crashes when you are trying to open AutoCAD preferences: the only one activity from AutoCAD at the time when you open Preferences is reading and writing some data in the ~/Library/Preferences folder on your Mac, so maybe AutoCAD can not do this because of permissions problems.
