Nah, when wow was first released in 2005, there were no intel Macs. Wow was powerpc app until 1.09 when they updated wow as a universal binary (meaning it had both native x86 and powerpc code in its binary). Blizzard maintained powerpc support up till 4.0 (cata). I can't really fault elysium for it not working. OS X users are going to be a small subsection of the group, and powerpc, given its age, would be a tiny subsection of that. My guess is that it's an encryption standard or binary (not really sure how wow communicates with the backend) that powerpc based OS X uses, but is not supported by elysium. Of course that's just a guess - no real idea.

So, I've done a bit of further testing. I can take the same client and launch it on an intel mac running 10.11 and login with no issues. When I attempt to login using the same binaries, etc on a G5 or G4 - I get the 'The information you have entered is not valid'. If anyone is searching for this info - as I was - I can tell you as it stands, the mac 1.12.1 client on powerpc hardware is currently not compatible with elysium backend. I'm sure there is good reasons for it, and these guys obviously have there hands full, so I'll leave it here.

Is it possible to run the powerpc based WoW mac client and connect to Elysium? If the answer is no, thats fine, I would just like to know. For various reasons, there's a late model AL Powerbook G4 that I wanted to use to connect to the Elysium servers - but I get an 'incorrect credentials' message on login (I've verified the credentials are correct). To test, I took the same client and ran it in windows with no issues (I dropped the wow.app into a windows wow installation, so both are more or less the same with the exception of the binaries). I was also able to take the PowerPC Mac client and login into the kronos servers without issue. My guess is that Elysium is either blocking PowerPC or that there's an incompatibility in there implementation of the login servers. To be clear, I know how badly 2005 powerbook hardware sucks when running games compared to current windows machines (or even windows machines of 2005). I'm willing to accept those limitations, and any potential bugs - unless the decision has already been made to just block powerpc hardware (which again, is a call I can understand)

I think what Chibs is refering to is: On a mac you can right click the item and select 'Open With'. From there, you can select 'Other' and from there you should be able to browse until you find 'textedit' which is a basic app included with OS X

I've been hitting up against this for the past few days. When I added 2fa, it would ask for the 6 digit code first, but then still give me the error. I can login to the control pannel without issue, so I know I have my username/password correct. I attempted a connection to kronos, which worked without issue. After changing back from kronos, I deleted the wdb and wtf folders, but still no dice. I can't figure out whats going on.

If you don't mind me asking, what was it?

Was there ever a resolution to this, I'm receiving the same error. Its a fresh account, but seems to keep saying the above. password isn't especially complicated.
