What up?

I've just started using Ultra Fractal on my Mac and been havin' fun with it.
I also tried using Mandelbulber 1.12 to start playing with the 3D Mandelbulb, but I cannot figure out how to get it to work on my Mac. I have tried opening it and typing in the password mandelbulber but to no avail.

I'm havin' some gnarly fun with UF tho

hello and welcome to the forums.  grin

password? where, when? did you use the native mac version (http://sourceforge.net/projects/mandelbulber/files/).
maybe you need an administrator password, to install it, but this was set by you.

After assuming 32bit, it asks for a password. Here, I type in: "mandelbulber"

Nothing appears where I am typing, but I press ENTER and it says "Sorry, try again."

After 3 tries, I receive:

WARNING: Improper use of the sudo command could lead to data loss
or the deletion of important system files. Please double-check your
typing when using sudo. Type "man sudo" for more information.

To proceed, enter your password, or type Ctrl-C to abort.

And then it becomes a loop!? Where am I going wrong?

After several tries, I also received this message:

sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts
type mandelbulber inside terminal to open the software and press enter.
/Users/guest/Downloads/mandelbulber-mac-1.12 2/install: line 22: mandelbulber: command not found
logout

[Process completed]

But I cannot use any of the syntax or commands after.

well, maybe it's a problem with your own password:

please open terminal, type sudo ls and press <enter>; if the message says "sorry, try again" when you type in the administrator password, we have a bit of a problem with your system's configuration.

Btw, what  system is your mac? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1531

32 bit should work but you need to type your exact password (it is not "mandelbulber").

When you are asked for a password in the terminal, simply type your password, and press enter. You won't see your password as you type, and no apparent result until your press the enter key. That's completely normal for the terminal app.
