Viewer glitches and crashes when I try to upload a texture.

[maeglutz]

Hello~ No matter what texture I try to upload, the screen flickers until it crashed. I tried it on Firestorm, and the official SL viewer. I tried it in Beta & the normal grid, and I tried it with different pictures & file formats. What's going on here? Sorry if this isn't the right board.

Restart your viewer, but before signing back in, pull up Preferences and under Graphics/Hardware Settings uncheck, "Enable OpenGL Vertex Buffer Objects," then sign in and try to upload a texture.  Let us know if that works.

P.S.  If you're running Windows Skydrive see this... link.

I tried that already after I saw it in a different thread & it doesnt work. I'm running a Mac. I also can't save screenshots now either.

You should post your system info.  I'm not a Mac person but I do know from reading threads, OS, Drivers, etc can cause specific problems. 

Form Help>About copy paste all the info.  You don't need to be logged in to do this.

Sounds like the known file picker crash on Mac.

This should fix you for all viewers: http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/mac_crash_upload
