It's been out already, I really wish they would keep their site updated

Which .dmg file are you referring to that is more recent? 

We are actively working on new mac .dmg files for Keyhotee and PTS

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

So i decided to finally move my protos from cryptsy to my own wallet, downloaded the mac wallet and it just won't connect, "no block source available"

i tried the debug method addnode add and also onetry no luck.

Anyone else was able to solve this ? seems like many ppl have this issue but no solutions yet ?

I came up the same problem with mac client this evening and found some useful node here(https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=355.0).
Guess you can try the same way.
help->debug->console and input commands:
addnode 61.238.157.8 add
addnode 54.254.192.95 add
addnode 54.207.21.146 add
addnode 54.206.30.227 add
addnode 54.219.164.14 add
addnode 146.185.172.136 add
addnode 162.243.14.13 add
addnode 5.9.24.81 add
addnode 23.92.25.118 add

thnx lib, its syncronizing now but v v v v slow :-P

im kinda giving up on the mac client if it doesnt improve in the next day or so lol

hang on ;D

This should work for you: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=355.msg2864#msg2864
Try run client from terminal as: ./protoshares-qt -connect=cryptoseed.cloudapp.net:80

Unfortunately, Mac wallet does have this issue, cause it's still version 0.2.0. you have to add all the nodes you can find, if you are lucky, the wallet will connect to the network. Otherwise, just wait for 0.4.0 version for Mac wallet

thanks for the reply ripple, that's too bad as i'm a primary mac user. Think i'm gonna wait for 0.4 or maybe install a wallet on my vmware windows machine.
