Weatherlink bought for MAC - java error?

[mywebdots]

Hi everyone,
I have a Vantage Vue, and just bought the WeatherLink 5.1 software & logger for MAC.

I have not been able to get it started - here is what happens.

1) install DVD without problem
2) install as directed the drivers without problem
3) launch the WeatherLink software for the first time and it asks to name the weather station - which it do and click OK. But nothing happens. The window doesn't close - if I close it manually by clicking the usual red close circle on Mac windows it throughs up an error. (and java error and something about global then is closes.

Restarting the WeatherLink software then just throughs up this error: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /Applications/Mac OSX WeatherLink/libjspMacOSX.jnilib: no suitable image found. Did find: /Applications/Mac OSX WeatherLink/libjspMacOSX.jnilib: no matching architecture in universal wrapper

And then shuts down. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling everything. Same thing happens.

I have LION on my Macbook pro.

Any ideas? ( I have tried running in 32 bit - and that just throws up a crash window and doesn't even open).

Thanks in advance!!

Cheers
Katie

besure you have the correct drivers:

Silicon Labs Intel Mac USB Driverwww.davisnet.com/support/weather/software_driver.asp

toolbox.davisnet.com/downloads/Weather/software/Mac_JavaError_32bit/

and that you have the update from Davis . I had the same issue and it is the silicon driver holding the thing up. then install the davis update



you can try weather display for mac and see how it works, then go back to the other www.weather-display.com/files.php there is an aug 2 version... you want that
