There must be some program on your mac that prevents the monitor from spawning a new process. Gonna ask Jaguar again.
as i said i started this from a clean install. i did a clean install about 2 weeks ago then installed the normal stuff (flash, java, firefox, utorrent,) once that was done i did all my updates and after that i went to install the beta client. this isn't the only system that isn't working either. the other mac i have at work and my laptop also can not start the NIS and NCC. my first assumption was a network problem but i have checked that to.
the work mac mini (os 10.7.5) has run nem via the webstart with no problem
my 13" laptop (os 10.10.2) has also run webstart with no problem
my 15" laptop (os 10.9.5) is the fresh install and has never had nem running on it
