<p>Could you take a look under system.log in the Console
application (Applications/Utilities/Console.app) at the time you
drop a file on the Marked icon and tell me if you see any errors
come up related to Marked?</p></div>Bretttag:support.markedapp.com,2011-09-11:Comment/101133472011-09-21T22:02:33Z2011-09-21T22:02:33Zunable to open/preview documents<div><p>I'm on Snow Lion. Here's the output:</p>

Marked is looking for something and it seems to be finding the
wrong thing, which is usually an incompatible version of
MultiMarkdown on the disk. You don't have a custom processor
defined at all, do you?</p>
<p>If what you installed put a folder at
/usr/local/bin/multimarkdown, then that's part of the problem, but
the current version of Marked shouldn't be looking there anyway, as
MultiMarkdown 3 is now embedded…</p>
<p>Do you know of anything strange about your Ruby install, and do
you have the option to strip MMD3 metadata turned on in
Preferences?</p></div>Bretttag:support.markedapp.com,2011-09-11:Comment/101133472011-09-22T15:04:59Z2011-09-22T15:04:59Zunable to open/preview documents<div><p>I had MMD3 turned on (tried loading a file with this setting
turned on and<br>
off)</p>
<p>I was having issues with Ruby a week ago. Gems would point to
the incorrect<br>
directory and throw errors. I had to manually change the
directories the<br>
Gems would point to.</p></div>Amytag:support.markedapp.com,2011-09-11:Comment/101133472011-09-22T15:54:39Z2011-09-22T15:54:39Zunable to open/preview documents<div><p>Do you have a ruby binary at /usr/bin/ruby? It uses that one to
run a couple of scripts right now. If that's failing, it might be
the culprit.</p></div>Bretttag:support.markedapp.com,2011-09-11:Comment/101133472011-09-22T17:24:07Z2011-09-22T17:24:07Zunable to open/preview documents<div><p>that directory doesn't exist. apparently my Ruby install was all
tangled up<br>

<p>thanks for all your help!</p></div>Amytag:support.markedapp.com,2011-09-11:Comment/101133472011-09-22T17:26:27Z2011-09-22T17:26:27Zunable to open/preview documents<div><p>Glad to hear it!</p></div>Brett
