Yosemite
MacTeX works fine on Apple's latest operating system, Yosemite. This page listsa few problems users encountered with TeX when updating to Yosemite. A new operatingsystem is expected in the fall of 2015; this page may be helpful for that update.X Windows and Quartz
Some folks use xdvi to display TeX Output on X Windows. There are reports that linksin X Windows are removed and the X11 display fails. The solution is to reinstall Quartz.To do so, go to http://xquartz.macosforge.org.Ghostscript
We have reports that Ghostscriptis broken, but actually it isn't. We ship two Ghostscript binaries, one with support for X11and one without this support. The binaries, in /usr/local/bin, are named gs-X11 and gs-noX11.The file gs in this location is a link to the approprite binary.If Apple removes X11 during an update, the binary gs-X11 will fail to run. There are twoeasy solutions. The first is to install X11 as above. The second is to reset the link gs to point to gs-noX11. Users who don't know the appropriate Unix commands should install X11, becausethat is the easiest fix.
Installing Yosemite
The biggest problem by far with Yosemite occurs during installation, and then only for userswho already have TeX. The installer begins by moving /usr/local to a temporary location. Then it installs the new system. Near the end, the installer moves the contents of /usr/local back totheir original location, but in the process it carefully examines each file. Since TeX containshundreds of thousands of files, this final step can last from an hour to over twelve hours. Users who let installation run all night report success in the end.Avoiding the Problem
Ghostscript For Mac Os X 10.11
Ross Moore sent an extremely useful method of avoiding the problem. He writes 'A colleague tells me that the way to update to Yosemite, withone or more TeX installations installed, is to first
- mv /usr/local/texlive ~
- do the install, then
- mv ~/texlive /usr/local
'This avoids the installer archiving, and then re-installing thehierarchy *file-by-file*. This kind of approach may be useful with other subdirectoriesof /usr/local as well.'
This solution moves the texlive directory to the User's home directory, installs Yosemite,and then moves the texlive directory back to its proper location. In more detail, theappropriate commands are as follows (spaces in these commands are essential, so copyingthe commands may work better than retyping them):
- sudo mv /usr/local/texlive ~
- install Yosemite
- sudo mv ~/texlive /usr/local
The TeX Dist Preference Pane
The TeX Dist Pane we distributed with MacTeX-2014 does not work in Yosemite. A newerreplacement for Yosemite is available at http://download2.polytechnic.edu.na/pub4/sourceforge/m/ma/mactextoolbox/TeXDist/.
It is possible to recover the basic functions of the PreferencePane by using the command line. This was pointed out by BrunoVoisin. Open Terminal in /Applications/Utilities. To see a list ofcurrent TeX distributions:
- texdist --list
- texdist --current

- sudo texdist --setcurrent=TeXLive-2014
CocoAspell
CocoAspell runs fine on Yosemite, but the installer runs into troubleinstalling dictionaries on a fresh copy of Yosemite, and the SpellingPref Pane installed by CocoAspell does not initially run. The author has been notified of the trouble.One possible solution is listed below, but Thaddeus Perala provided an easier fixwhich does not require retrieving files from an earlier system. To read about hissolution, click here.
In the release version of Yosemite, it is possible to resurrect cocoAspellas follows. From an installation of CocoAspell on Mavericks, go to/usr/local/lib and find a folder named aspell-0.60 and several libraries whose names start with libaspell or libpsell. Copy this folder and these libraries to Yosemite, and move them into /usr/local/lib, creating this folder if necessary. Using sudo, change the owner of the files to root.
Again on Mavericks, go to '/Library/Application Support' and find thefolder named cocoAspell. Copy this folder to Yosemite and place it in '/Library/Application Support' there.
After these steps, the cocoAspell Preference Pane will run and the spell checker can be used as usual.
Ghostscript is an interpreter for the PostScript® language and PDF files. It is available under either the GNU GPL Affero license or licensed for commercial use from Artifex Software, Inc. It has been under active development for over 30 years and has been ported to several different systems during this time.Ghostscript consists of a PostScript interpreter layer and a graphics library.
There are a family of other products, including GhostPCL, GhostPDF, and GhostXPS that are built upon the same graphics library. Between them, this family of products offers native rendering of all major page description languages. Our latest product, GhostPDL, pulls all these languages into a single executable.
Full descriptions of these products can be found here.
In addition to rendering to raster formats, Ghostscript offers high-level conversion through our vector output devices.
Written entirely in C, Ghostscript runs on various embedded operating systems and platforms including Windows, macOS, the wide variety of Unix and Unix-like platforms, and VMS systems.
