The error indicates the pd core has crashed or is not running. Sometimes this 
also happens if the pd proves has hung in the background. Open Activity Monitor 
and make sure there is no "pd" processing running, if so then kill it.

As a test, try running the pd core from the command line in Terminal:

    /Applications/Pd-VERSION.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd

You can at least see some info. You can also run it with the -verbose flag to 
see even more info.
