Re: Folding on Intel Macs
After installing Folding , you need to go to System Preferences. Enter team number ( 18 ) and your Folding name. No spaces in the folding name plz. Probably no "@" symbol either.
Click thumbnails for larger image. You can see that Folding has a bright clean icon.
I ignore the passkey issue.
BETA EXPIRES ON AUGUST 2, 2008 (THIS YEAR)

Re: Folding on Intel Macs
Server down. I'll try again later to see if it'll fix the problem I'm having.

Re: Folding on Intel Macs
Awesome, I just started folding. It looks like it is working. Is there anyway to see your stats/team stats?
Edit: P.S. my username is Macmenace and I think I'm on team 18.

Re: Folding on Intel Macs
TWO NOTES:
the current download for Intel Macs is a beta which will expire on AUGUST 8, 2008
and the localhost problem experienced by Otsep has been split off to its own thread.

Re: Folding on Intel Macs
Both Versiontracker and Macupdate are reporting new versions of Intel F@H software, but the version # seems the same, is this an expiration date update

The new 6.20 Beta was released yesterday, seems to work OK 
only odd thing is that the Prefpane says version 6.10, maybe it's just a expire date update

Re: Folding on Intel Macs
The install was quick and painless. Team, please update. Several team members appear to have lost most of their daily output.

Re: Folding on Intel Macs
A 2.66 Ghz Intel iMac can crank out 1500~ points per day if running 24 hours per day. Maybe someone can narrow down this number.
