Hey; thank you so much for this information. I hope it will also help some other users that have macs and are downloading the wrong wallet.
You really were such a help not only with the Mac Wallet but also that other info regarding ProtoShares.
Kind Regards,

WOW!
Thanks so much for leading me to that Wallet Download! It opened AND worked the first try and is syncing with the network!
I mean I've spoke with 'Bitshares Support', 'Invictus Support'; not to mention searching all over the internet for help about this matter; yet this is the first anyone has recommended or sent a link to that "BitShares-PTS v1.0.0" wallet. I can't believe & don't understand why they have that wallet that crashes on every mac I've used, on their official website...

Could you tell me if you know: What is the difference in that wallet and the one on their official website? Also what is the other wallet (Not the "BitShares-PTS v1.0.0" which works great) on that site below the BitShares Download that is named "Protoshares-Qt vp0.4.0". I obviously know that Bitshares used to be named 'Protoshares' which is why their abbreviation in exchanges is (PTS)... Only I have just began learning about and purchasing the Bitshares recently after they had the name change.
If anyone can clarify this for me it would be most welcome!

Welcome on board.  :)

ProtoShares was rebranded to BitShares-PTS due to trademark problem, you can read about this here:
http://www.invictus.io/bitshares-pts.php

The https://github.com/BitShares/BitShares-PTS/releases it's a official stable version of BitShares-PTS wallet software, you can find links in official site:
http://www.invictus.io/bitshares-pts.php
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2995.0

Currently team merge few different sites into bitshares.org and probably soon we will see links to this official stable build at:
http://www.bitshares.org/

"Protoshares-Qt vp0.4.0" it's a previous version of the client before rebranding which can also works if you add DNS seeds manually, but sure is better to use BitShares-PTS 1.0.0 version.

So I have two Macs... An iMac and MacBook Air. The Keyhotee App works fine on the iMac but not the MacBook Air. The Bitshares-PTS App (The build from last night 4-14 & this afternoon 4-15) doesnt work on either Mac. It crashes before even doing 'any loading' on both Macs... Not even creating a /library/ApplicationSupport/Bitshares-PTS/ Folder. Does anyone else have these issues? Is there any advice anyone can give so I can get this wallet working so I can transfer my coin from Cryptsy?

Try official 1.0.0 version from https://github.com/BitShares/BitShares-PTS/releases
