Unfortunately upgrading to 10.7 (or above) isn't an option for me.

Can someone give me a link to the last (stable) 10.6.8 compatible dmg?

I *think* it's 2013.11.6 but i could be wrong...

Thanks

Annoyingly that one doesn't work for me. Thanks though.

I'm currently using 3.22.2012 which is really buggy but at least it runs.

If anyone knows of more recent versions that run on Snow Leopard please post them up!

The only bug : do not minimize it or it will freeze.

Thats the same one as here: https://www.macupdate.com/download/38990/SoulseekQt-2013-10-5.dmg

If I minimise or hide the app it freezes. A very annoying bug considering how most people use soulseek. ie. Downloading and sharing usually mean the app is left running in the background. Maybe the iSoul nightly builds might work better with Snow Leopard: https://github.com/arranger1044/iSoul/downloads

To Devs; Is there any reason that 10.7 is the minimum version considering it does not use Cocoa?

EDIT; A slightly newer build but still has the same freezing bug http://www.soulseekqt.net/SoulseekQt/Mac/SoulseekQt-2013-7-22.dmg

OK. Snow Leopard doesn't have c++11 support. Soulseekqt now uses QT5 which needs c++11. You can build qt5 using Homebrew but you would also need the Soulseekqt source code to investigate if it could be patched for 10.6 support.

On Mac Os 10.6.8, this one worked well for me:

In UI options, i toogle off "minimize to tray" for windows only,
but it still freeze when minimize.
Otherwise, works well
