OSX: can't install from DMG - "no mountable filesystems"
This is a permissions issue sometimes encountered on OSX 10.11 (El Capitan). If you have this issue, try downloading the alternative version for 10.11 users. Double click the downloaded .tgz file to unzip it, and move the resulting application folder wherever you like. This is a zipped package, and as such is not "code-signed" by Apple, so you will be warned that it comes from an unknown developer. This is expected. A better solution, if possible, is to upgrade your operating system.
Menubar offset, mouse-clicks don't work unless you click under/above a button.
This is an OpenGL driver issue on your computer. We have seen this in particular on Windows laptops with Intel HD Graphics using drivers ending in .4664. The drivers found by Windows Update are not the most recent, and you must get the lateset drivers directly from Intel or the appropriate company. For Intel HD graphics, see this page.
