Major bugs:
1. Client constantly closes randomly.
2. Often, like 90% of the time when you close eve the you click the quit button the window freezes and you have to use opt+cmd+esc to make eve close
Problem one is more of a problem because often cannot spend more than 5 min in eve without it closing on me. Then other times it will run perfectly for hours. But then it starts closing.

I'm unsure if that's an acceptable answer since EVE ran just perfectly on low-spec systems under wine/crossover before Trinity ... (now it doesn't even start up ...)
It seems to me there's a very serious memory leak in the emulated client, but I wouldn't be able to guess if it's from the client or the emulator.

Cannot run two clients without making a second copy of the Eve app and running that.
When trying to run two clients in full-screen mode, first client will not accept mouse input. Sometimes it will not accept it on any part of the screen, but sometimes it's only certain parts of the screen.
Client will crash sometimes when running the second client. Crash report can be found here.
Exact the same thing here. Using a brand new Mac Pro with Leopard.

I hope the DEV guys read thru here. I must admit that since the trinity upgrade I have been unable to play eve on my MAC. Running it on bootcamp is not an option for me because windows is just too damn expensive ... ;-)
i hope the eve guys can fix this issue. Im getting tired of having to play on my old PC instead of my nice MAC PRO

Ditto. (Mac Pro 4x2.66, Leopard (10.5), NVidia GeForce 7300 GT 256mb).
Trinity seems to crash most near stargates for me, luckily combat situations seem mostly stable.
It seems like there is something that is sometimes in the areas near gates that causes the crash, maybe a player ship type that crashes trying to render?

Yes, according to my two pre posters, EVE crashes suddenly, sometimes after 2 minutes, sometimes after 60minutes.
First thought was, it might crash, in case of lack of memory, have 1GB so far, and within in big fleets, but after jumping back to empire an traveling through it, at some stargates or even in empty systems, eve crashes.

All was sweet until I loaded the patch on the 7th.
It now takes almost 6 minutes just to get the log in screen up where before the patch it was near instant.
Then when the log in screen is up I can use the mouse but I cannot type in the username and password fields. So therefore cannot proceed.
I attached another usb keyboard - and still nothing. The evidence that my keyboards work fine is the petition I sent.
I got a mass email reply which was primarily (except notes about a firewall) PC based with no regard to mac and it did not address these problems anyway.
Macbookpro (latest 17" 4GB ram) LEOPARD.
I checked out the idea of buying VISTA and it is more than 2x what I paid for Leopard. Vista an OS my PC mates complain about. I paid for 2months subscription and have got little air time.
This is such a waste of time on a mac and I'll be damned if I am going to spend major dosh on a pre-infected OS just to play this game!
I will be ending this subscription and keeping an eye on a new Mac client that has it's mac forum singing it's praises. Until then I am going to spend my time on a other activities that make money rather than literally paying for a time and money sucking vortex.

Same 'random' crash problem for me. However, I can pin that 'random' a bit. These crashes are 'always' happening after jumps for me. So on space system load. Wether it is the system load, or the rendering of the ship/items around the system is unclear, but it _does_ happen after jumps always.
I am suspecting a generic EVE client render problem here for some graphic cards/drivers, since in bootcamp (so plain windows client) I have freeze ups too randomly, and also always happening after jumping into a system.
My hardware is the AL iMac 24" with 2.4 ghz core2duo, 2 gig RAM and the Ati Radeon HD2600 card with 256mb.

I have a Macbook Pro nvidia 8600m GT w/ 128 mb ram. Pro's don't have integrated graphics.
2.2ghz core duo, 2gb ram 10.5
ennyhoo here are my issues:
- App hung while I was creating my character
- Map Browser, Fitting window, and the lil Map in mission briefing window is garbled with random bitmap images
- It can run for 6 hours straight, or crash 5 times per hour. Seems to happen while warping more often
- Clock goes haywire and music still plays but screen is unresponsive
- Heat is by far the most glaring issue:
My machine heats up from 99f to maximum 160f upon launching just the login screen. I don't get how that could be a videocard issue. I mean I know apple wasn't exactly building these machines with games in mind (which is sad) but 155+ degrees fahrenheit? It's a login screen. I just tested this and it shoots up to 130 in 15 seconds... I'm overclocking the fans to 5800rpm w/ smcFanControl, and it's now fluctuating between 135-140f.

For what it's worth, I'll chime in about the random crashes (cf. Hermiad's response). Seems to happen mostly when I'm jumping, or docking/undocking, but sometimes during warp or other times. Maybe more in busy systems? Anyway, it substantially interferes with enjoyment of the game. This should be a top priority for fixing.
I'm running client on a MacBook Pro with OS 10.5.1.

Im having a lot of the same issues as mentioned here. Running a regular macbook but that doesn't seem to be an issue when Im running the client on XP through bootcamp. Although Im having the same issues I had before the new client/patch release for mac. Those issues were completely bugged out graphics and I absolutely can NOT hit the escape button or the entire client crashes and closes. Im running Leopard on a brand new macbook. Also, it seems to enjoy closing down whenever the hell it feels like it also. Here is a screen shot of what my graphics are doing when I run this through the mac client.

Having a few problems on a MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz, 4GB RAM, OSX 10.5.1:
- Frequent crashes, pretty random
- After crashes Eve has usually lost ALL my prefs (overview, window layouts, chat channels, etc reset to default)
- Had various parts of the UI freeze at different times .. things like not being able to move/resize windows (unpinned) but could minimize/close them.
- Generally seems to be running much slower than it does on my Bootcamp partition (which i had really hoped to get rid of..)

I'm also having those graphic-bugs. Running the client on a Black Macbook, I know the graphic device isn't as good as it should be, but thing is that it runs pretty smooth on bootcamped XP and I really don't want to run XP when I have a nice Mac.

posted this in the feedback thread too; copypasting here incase its helpful.
ive had both the systemuiserver systemwide ctd bug and the eve-only sound buffer wraparound bug and havent seen a lot of advice for them, so here goes.
if you have the systemuiserver one where it crashes once and then crashes become incredibly frequent, not only in eve but also other apps, then logging out of your osx account and back in will fix it and is faster/gentler on the hardware than a reboot. its possible that killing a certain process will work without logging out, but currently i dunno which process that could be (its not systemuiserver since that crashes on its own).
if you have the sound buffer bug you can stop it by just turning off audio from within the game; sadly thats the only way. id be interested in knowing whether the sound output device is whats causing this one, so can those who have it post what kinda output theyre using and have plugged in (usb, built in, minijack, optical)?
ive tried everything i can think of to lessen the impact of these bugs but no alterations to the config file, deleting of prefs, or downloading the client anew will stop them popping up. turning off audio and logging out does make them easier to live with until they are fixed tho.
the missing f drive error that pops up when launching the game can be fixed by just removing or commenting out (with ;;) the [Drive F] section in the config.ini file in your eve online preferences folder. that particular drive is redundant and isnt used by the game, so you can safely get rid of that bit to reduce the log clog-up.
also, if you play in windowed mode with the new version you shouldnt set the desktop value to y, rather it should be set to whichever resolution you wanna play at, otherwise youll get more console messages. the line should read something like the following: "Desktop" = "1280x1024"

I made a post regarding one of the problems listed in the OP (the lack of Unicode support) in a separate thread, as I felt it was a rather specific post and the aforementioned thread dealt only with the Unicode issue. I hope in doing so, I haven't caused my post to be overlooked.
Here is the thread (it's recently been bumped as I'm posting this just after having made that post).

I am running a new iMac 2.8ghz 2g(ram) 256mb graphics
I have had a lot of problems since I installed Trinity on this computer (1st time playing Eve on the mac)
The ESC key fails to work. I have shortcuts for drone functions which fail to work. The RETURN key fails to enter words typed into the chat window into the channel itself. It instead places the cursor to the next line. I also have issues with left and right click (i'm not using the standard Mac Mouse...so I have a left and right buttons - logitech gaming mouse) left click brings up the right click menu over and over ...then returns to normal. The same applies to the camera, left vs. right click camera functions. I have tried 3 other mice including the mac mouse...same problem, so it is the game.
I must command-Q to exit and restart the client. When I do so things return to normal, but sometimes within minutes things aren't working properly again. The client also crashes to the desktop at random - especially annoying when ratting with drones.
I'm surrpised at the number of problems i'm having... I really don't want to download the entire client again and reinstall. Is this something I need to do? I hope not...

Just a quick note on getting the client to work with a Macbook (and its integrated graphics card). Going into the Quote:
~/Library/Preferences/EVE\ Online\ Preferences/config
file and setting Quote:
[d3dgl]
"FBO" = "N"
as well as making sure the 'color depth' is set to '24-bit color with 8-bit alpha' and the 'depth/stencil format' is set to '24-bit z-buffer' in the application settings makes the client work without those notorious glitches. I'm noticing some issues with portraits not being entirely correct, but apart from that, it seems to function just fine. Entirely playable.
As always YMMV however...

Still having unexplained complete freezes. If one doesn't run in windowed mode, the only way to get out of it is to power down/power up again. (Windows doesn't need emulating -this- well...).
Relevant info:
MBP, ATI X1600 card, 2Gb RAM, all files stored in a clear folder (not filevaulted).
Freezes happen at random, but usually involve some shooty-shooty, whether it be NPC's or PVP. (This has cost me 3 ships already...). The precursor to it is that everything starts lagging like crazy, graphics wise. Then you get a slide-show of 1 frame per 10 seconds, and then everything just stops responding altogether.
Will be going back to bootcamp for the time being, at least that worked :/
Having the same issue. Random unexplained freezes that require me to power down the computer to recover from them.

the whole comp shouldnt be freezing, and it probably isnt. i too was experiencing freezes in the game but force quitting always worked for me, and theres no reason it could happen only in fullscreen. what you can try to do is hit cmd-opt-esc a bunch of times in quick succession or hold the keys down for several seconds to try and get the force quit window up. even if that doesnt work, you can verify that its just the game thats freezing by having itunes or something playing in the background. itll continue to play normally if its just the game but, if the whole comp is frozen, after a few moments itll start to repeat the same second or so of music.
also, if you have third party keyboard drivers like logitechs ones or controllermate (or any other app that can run an applescript on a hotkey) then you can create an applescript to kill the game even from fullscreen. i cant give you the precise code but you can get a script to run a shell command such as killall cider which will close the game for you.

I've pinned down one of the crashes on the lowest tier MBP. Whenever a Growl message pops up, client goes crazy and all input slows to a crawl. Graphics, action on screen, the game clock goes wild, and I have to Command+Q to get out.

Are any of these issues being addressed by the troubleshooting staff? Or the DEVs or anyone for that matter? Its been months since the new release and since I've made inquiries about the issues surrounding running a client on my mac and I have NOT heard a single thing that might solve my problem with running the Mac Client. Nor have I heard of anything being done to solve the problems in general. People say this client works fine, but obviously it DOES NOT and I am not hearing a thing about it being fixed...

So anyone still have major probems?
I have not had a crash in a LONG time. But there still seems to be a memory leak that crashes the system very slowly if the user stays in a single location (like a station) for a extended period of time.

i still can't play for more than 10 minutes just sitting in station, while if i am traveling through systems it seems to last as long as i keep moving and dont angle the camera at the sun or the gate or other players or the station....if i do it flips out with random bitmap things. i cant even warp into a belt or deadspace without freezing in a couple minutes, so i cant fight. ive disabled all extra graphics effects (in the options) and have it at lowest resolution, and it still isnt working...i cant play the game at all.
so are they doing anything about this?

you should do the trick posted 8 posts above here, from Karr Vanguard. That solved the graphics problem on my macbook
Still I got loads of other problems, that have been reported here as well.
- Client crashes when aproaching stargate
- Client crashes after pressing ESC button
- I do not dare to get the info of another player in space
- and the fan in my Mac is going 100% when starting the Eve client, and keeps on blowing like a big microwarpdrive
