Report a translation problem
Have tried full re-install (which then had issues of not being able to launch until I ran the manual updater from the bundle, and deleted the extended attributes from the app as described in the sticky threads)
Nothing seems to be making a difference
thanks
Nor I think you can just have official support for those kind of issues (buy something and not being able to use it).
Thanks, I think that's what I'm going to end up doing if I can't figure it out by the end of the weekend. I've already devoted a fair amount of time to trying to make it work, but at this point it's just not worth the frustration.
If this happens to you after Steam restarts itself for an update, there are two options. First, please try the directions at https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=3134-TIAL-4638 to refresh your local files (including a system restart).
If the problem still continues after a restart, you may need to perform a full re-installation of the Steam application (but not your games). To do this, drag the Steam application to the Trash. You will be prompted to Keep or Discard related files - you should choose KEEP in order to retain your saved games and local downloads. (If you do not see a prompt, then your saved files will not be deleted, as the default behavior is Keep.)
Empty the trash, verify that Steam is no longer an application on your system, and then fully restart your Mac. The restart step is very important, do not skip it!
You can then download and reinstall Steam from this website (Install Steam link at top of page) after the reboot, and the issue should be gone. ifo thanks to "hankr from Valve"
Thanks for the options. I have tried to a you've suggested, yet it doesn't work for me. Games do not install and keeps saying it lacks its executable files...
Thanks anyway...
Either way, I still can't install anything.
