    Im a dragon not a mod expert:p, try re installing the launcher or delete some stuff. Some people had the same problem im pretty sure, look around the forums for a fix. If that doesnt help, and u havnt gotten help in the mean time, ask me and i will (try to) get a staff on it, if he doesnt get eaten by me in the mean time:rolleyes:.

    1. Mac's are notoriously useless.
    2. Try downgrading LWJGL, seems to fix stuff for Mac users.

    Note that you cannot directly follow those instructions because Alice is installed somewhere else. Check Application Support for "skcraftalice"

    If you need help, then get TeamViewer "QuickSupport" at http://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/mac.aspx and we can set up a time for me to help you.

    If it helps, the path to get to the .minecraft folder in .skcraftalice on a mac is as follow /Users/[YourName]/Library/Application Support/skcraftalice/Library/Application Support/minecraft

    Uninstalling and reinstalling the game? May have been a dodgy download?
