Crash when I save (mac OS X)

I’m running Mac OS X 10.4.8 and just downloaded Blender 2.42a.

I’m taking a computer science course and have never used bledner before, so I am the ultimate n00b, I know.

My problem: Whenever I try and save my file, blender crashes (it does in fact save the file though). I tried ot find support elsewhere online and in the forums and found a PC used who had had a similar problem but couldn’t figure out how to fix it based on that.

Any help on this would be great.

Also is there somewhere I can get a version of blender 2.41? that’s what’s runningon the class ocmputers andperhaps it’d be more stable onmy mac?

thanks!

My friend has the same problem. As soon as he hits save or save as… blender crashes. I’m not too farmiliar with macs so am not sure what the problem might be. Any help?
