 Hi, there are a bunch of other tickets with this problem, but none that I
 can see with a solution for Mac OS X 10.6.8 (64 bit)

 Tor Browser was running fine until I updated it today - I downloaded the
 new version and ran it, it came up with "Vidalia was unable to
 authenticate to the Tor software. (Control socket is not connected.)
 Please check your control port authentication settings."

 I thought I better go back to the old version I was using of TorBrowser
 and just stay with that until things were working again, but for some
 reason that wasn't working either. So I tried a few different versions and
 none of them work now

 When I check the message log I get "It looks like another tor process is
 running with the same data directory". So I tried deleting every version
 from my comp and then reinstalling one, still wasn't working. Any Ideas?

 cheers for your time
