Not to be a bearer of bad news, but, these kinds of errors need to be fixed for Sia to go commercial. I've tried (on windows) running as admin, using CMD to launch both said/c and get nothing but fail.

The Mac bug is caused by app translocation. This should be fixed in v1.2.2 by https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia-UI/pull/578. Any ideas @johnathanhowell? You can fix this by moving Sia-UI to a different folder before running it.

I haven't seen that windows bug reported before. AFAIK it's not common for Windows users to not have permission to bind to a port. Check your firewall, and also check for other programs that might be listening on that port. You can also use the --api-addr flag to make siad listen on a different port.

Hmm. Moving Sia-ui to applications resolved the mac screen shot 2017-07-19 at 11 02 58 am issue.
