Can't launch on mac (I have tried everything to my knowledge)

[venius62 0]

Hello fellas 

I have just gotten my Mac, so for that purpose I have downloaded the client from the Elysium website suited for Mac (I used uTorrent) 

When I unpack the .zip I have tried 2 things: 

1) Clicking on the "WoW Classic" icon, and 

2) right clicking on the "WoW Classic" icon, and opening the content of the file, in here, I click Contents - MacOS and then choose the World of Warcraft (Unit executable) file in here. 

No matter which of these methods I use, the game opens (or at least the screen turns black) but then it closes down and says, that an error has occured during the launch of World of Warcraft. 

I have tried to remove any WTF files and error launch files.

Any suggestions guys? 

 

Thanks in advance! 
Btw. I am running OS X El Capitan

I don't know anything about mac, but you can make a dual-boot with Windows.

You gotta use the apple software Boot Camp https://support.apple.com/nl-nl/boot-camp

(Try to find a support page in your language, this link is in dutch).

Though you might want to wait a little while for someone to maybe find an easy solution to make it bootable on mac. Try googling!

Hey again! 
Thanks for your reply.
I'll try it out later on in the "process", but I think for a start I will try to look for an easier solution! 

 

Thanks for your help :)

Ok, so it actually worked for you, to just restart your mac? 
Can you tell me, which client did you use? :)
