Hi, I'm not sure why the MacTeX installer failed to set it, but on my system (Leopard) the paths were set up as follows: ;;;; Jehannum:img oisin$ ls -l /etc/paths.d/ total 16 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 12 4 Oct 20:48 TeX -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 13 24 Sep 2007 X11 Jehannum:img oisin$ more /etc/paths.d/TeX /usr/texbin ;;;; So I guess that any files in /etc/paths.d have each line of text added to each user's path... Anyway, if you don't have such an entry, you can just create this file with a command like: sudo bash -c "echo /usr/texbin > /etc/paths.d/TeX" Then quit and run Mnemosyne again. Looks like you don't need to reboot before this takes effect.
