Thanks for that method. I upgrade your method to next: (this really helps me)
1) Delete all languages without English
2) Change language my system on English
2.1 Change my location
2.2 Change primary language
3) sudo reboot
In short : do my system only on english language

Dzhuffin✭Well, after 48 hours of non-stop crashing, I just stopped pay for the subscription.
btw, support team can't answer for more than 30 hours
I am working in software development, so I know if you took money from people you should wake up even in weekend and fix the problem, if you can't, - you just **** your customers.
Also i suggest to other people to do the same with their subscription, Zenimax has no experience in online games, i closed my eyes for a lot of issues, but for such attitude to customers, enough for me!

Yes, the game still crashes. All methods of solution mentioned in this thread don't help. The only one left is uninstalling the game, but I really doubt it will help.0 -

Unless you have a Mac Pro where you can fit a retail graphics card, you can't. And I would not recommend trying to install web install drivers as they will mess up the next update for the Mac. It wont help.Where do you get drivers for Mac? on Nvidia GPU

Mac graphics card drivers are included in OS X Updates (except for Mac Pro retail cards) This is not the same for PC.NakedSnake wrote: »

Well true however we post from perspective of Mac users. it's not our place to determine if the problem is with client or server. It's up to the staff to do that so it is them who should move, merge and so on topics about this issue in case it is server problem and PC section has complains about that too. Not ours. But then nobody from the company even acknowledged that they are aware of this problem and are working on the fix.

Hopefully you do for sake of Zenimax really. Happens that I work for one of the biggest IT corporations on the market and there are definitely three rules company ZOS could learn here:I think ZeniMax not react for that problem, because they solve tech issues in Business days, wait Monday, ZeniMax take a weekend, by them to spit to your problems, they have leave.
I hope that I make mistakes in this
1. Never released unfinished functionality. Aware of bugs and problems? Push it even a few weeks and don't rush it. You will always loose less customers than if you would release something that just does not work.
2. Bugs found at release time? Prioritise it. Even if it means staying at work for Saturday (yeah, that simple). And learn to avoid such mistakes in the future. Can't afford that because ow law regulations? The work on the process and NEVER release unfinished (as in UNTESTED) functionality.
3. Work on the process - usually eliminating such mistakes as we have seen for last two months takes a month tops (depending on length of each iteration - in case of TESO the shortest iteration seems to be one week). And before launch they had beta events, they had internal testing (which most likely did involve some iterative releases of product) and they were working on TESO for a few years...

That note is outdated. It was confirmed in a recent patch that that issue was fixed so I expect it was just that it is more server side and relogging made the difference.amiga85b16_ESO wrote: »I had this problem.
I went and read the Read First Section.
Mac Crashing on Game Launch
Common Causes
Running ESO on OSX 10.6.8 or older. ( ESO requires OSX 10.7 or greater. )
Having the keyboard layout set to something other then English, German, French.
I went and set my keyboard layout to English, since it was Danish before.
Now I haven't crashed a single time in 2 hours.
That I can play without it crashing is sweet, but I'll be damned if I won't state how a *** error this is, now I gotta switch my keyboard layout when I wanna play ESO... Oh well, just another thing to the long list of *** that's annoying about this.
To anyone who doesn't know how to switch keyboard layout on a mac:
Go to System Preferences.
Select Keyboard.
Select the tab "Input Sources"
If you only have one language in the left-hand side list and it's not English then click the + and select English and then British(Or some other English layout).
Close that window.
On your topbar, next to the clock will now be a flag with whatever language you had previously, click that flag and select the British(or whatever englishspeaking country you chose).
Start up ESO.
Enjoy.
It was specific to Japanese and some other symbolic languages. I tested Swedish and some others including Cyrillic and it worked fine. it would crash the game before even launching when clicking Play.
EDIT Seems 1.1.2 introduced another language bug in system language possibly keyboard also, so the previous note is not relevant actually but does reflect the current issue.Edited by Moonraker on May 25, 2014 3:13PM0 -

I put that here because a lot of players posting who use a PC so they are more likely to get relevant advice in the relevant forums section. Also, it just confuses the issue with Mac specific issues even if they are similar.alterfenixeb17_ESO wrote: »

ZOS have already hotfixed the server and posted a lot on these issues. I suggest rather than posting about stuff that has no foundation that people check the actual ZOS staff posts to see the actions they have and are taking rather than post speculation which doesn't help anyone.

Agreed that it can be confusing and so on. But then I as a player don't need to have proper knowledge of the product in order to decide what area is the problem. The only thing I can see is that I start Mac version of client and it crashes. From this perspective saying that it is 100% server issue is also a speculation.

As the matter of fact simple info such as "we passed it to devs, they are working on it as we speak" or maybe "we passed it to devs but don't expect fix today" are always better than nothing. Also you mentioned that co called dev post tracker. Usually those tools are useful but honestly this one reminds me just poorly organised kanban board. Not that readable as it should be.

And btw they fixed since yesterday issues such as what? Achievements missing (yeah, you can't play without them, sure), biting jabs nerf (again can't play without it), Thief Mundus still broken or not displaying (just like if it wasn't before).
Ok they are / were rollbacks after patch but that's it really... And CUSTOMERS that are cut from the SERVICE THEY PAID FOR are getting what? Maybe this: http://elderscrollsonline.com/en/news/post/2014/05/23/craglorn-is-here?ref=home - another post how things are great, smooth and wonderful.0 -

If you prefer not to take advice about which may be the best place to post a specific issue then feel free to ignore it. But if you can point out one ZOS staff response to this section please go ahead. It makes a lot more common sense to post to threads which relate to this specific issue in these sections. It also fills up a Mac section with PC related posts which doesn't help which was, as I pointed out, is the reason for posting that advice.alterfenixeb17_ESO wrote: »Agreed that it can be confusing and so on.

Helping ZOS staff or other players looking to help by posting to the relevant section just helps everyone including those looking for help.
I think most players prefer to have some feedback to their posts rather than nothing, especially when they are updating on a more regular basis. Espeically when they are keeping players informed of hotfixes, work in progress on specific issues. That all seems sensible dialogue.As the matter of fact simple info such as "we passed it to devs, they are working on it as we speak" or maybe "we passed it to devs but don't expect fix today" are always better than nothing.

Not sure what they have changed then as the previous issue was fixed and has been working correctly at least until this latest patch. Ensure to make a ticket and /bug so they are aware of this issue of other languages now effecting this.alterfenixeb17_ESO wrote: »

Well, so far it appears that this issue is Mac related not server side - somehow related to language settings of OS X. it's not about ignoring anyones advice but simply basing where to pos without knowing the root cause usually creates even bigger mess. As i said it is staff that should decide. Just a free advice where to post info about issues without knowing that's in fact the problem;)

Vicodine✭✭✭I can confirm that setting the system language under language & region fixes the crashes. Not just the keyboard (which may not be the cause at all). But i never had that issue before, not during early access, not during open beta weekends. Strange. For now, english system and english keyboard works.
Previous settings:
Language & Region: Czech (Primary), English
Keyboard: Czech (QWERTZ), English
Now:
L&R: English (Primary), Czech
Keyboard: Czech (QWERTS), English (I switch keyboards before i start playing)
Hope it gets fixed. I don't mind the system being english for now, since the translation into czech is out for just about 2 years so I'm used to that. But would welcome a fix.
