I recently bought spore mostly on the basis that could play this game on my mac. I have a MBP bought in January of 2008. The specs are Mac OS X 10.5.4, 4GB RAM, i have more than 4GB free(190GB free), and i'm hoping my graphics card is fine considering on the box it says it supports the Geforce 8600 series, which is what mine is.
So i installed it, the installation went just fine, no error messages, or anything else that would indicate a problem during installation.
However after i've installed it and actually click on the spore application within my application folder(where i installed the game), first i see the little icon bounce up and down on my dock and then the icon disappears. This happens everytime i click on the spore.app file and thats all it ever does.
I've tried uninstalling then reinstalling, i've tried a restart after installation, i've tried using the admin account to install and run the game, but nothing has worked or gotten me any farther to booting up the game.
Please if you have any ideas, let me know. Thanks.
