Error with marvin.mytemplates on Mac OS 10.6.8

Hi,

I have an issue. After clicking the icon of MarvinSketch it gives me an error: Error reading template set location: marvin.mytemplates. I read the previous thread and tried to create a text file with needed contents, but the problem wasnt solved. I also reinstalled it 3 times. Help will be appreciated.

Could you please make sure that in your home directory, ther is a .chemaxon folder, and in the .chemaxon folder you have marvin.mytemplates file with this content:

<?xml version="1.0"?><cml version="ChemAxon file format v5.10.0, generated by v5.11.5">

</cml>

The installer should make this folder and this file for you. Please inform me if it solves your problem or not.

I checked many times, the chemaxon folder is there but the file is not. What type of file should I create? Also the process is such: Programms>Chemaxon>MarvinBeans>many files and folders. Thanks

You only need a simple text file called: marvin.mytemplates. You can also try to use this file:
