There seems to be something wrong with your java installation on the mac. The error comes even before LRTimelapse is being launched.
Please try installing the java upgrade: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1360

Please let me know if it helps.

you gave me an old java one, I downloaded the new one and still the same

here is the log

The error message is not critical, I'm going to remove it in the next version.
It's more interesting that it stops right before the version check.
Could you please tell me exactly what happens in the user interface? Does the main screen come up?

here is what is happening in vedio

Thanks for making that video.
Have you tried clicking on the foldername itself? I fear the "+" sign might be misleading, sinse the images are directly in the folder you click onto you shoud click on the foldername to load the images, not on the plus sign. I don't know why sometimes a "+" Sign appears when there are no subfolders inside.

Same thing Gunther
