Am I the only one have SERIOUS issues with IDEA in OS X Yosemite?

Please try this build http://download.jetbrains.com/idea/ideaIU-141.1531.2-custom-jdk-bundled.dmg .

What error does it display if you try to run it from the Terminal?

Try to move/rename IDE folders so that it starts with the defaults: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/entries/23358108 .

If it just exists, provide errors from the terminal, if it hangs, attach idea.log (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/entries/23352446) and thread dumps via jstack (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/entries/23348667).

I have been using that custom-jdk build. From Terminal, it doesn't look like there is an error showing (output below).

Moving the IDE folders and starting with defaults worked. I suspect some plugin, so I'm re-installing the plugins I use gradually so hopefully I can nail down the culprit.

Thanks!

And that's where it hangs indefinitely until I force quit.

We may have a winner: IDEA froze on startup after installing "wide-task-browser" plugin. I removed the plugin jar from

~/Library/Application\ Support/IntelliJIdea14/idea-task-browser-0.1.13.jar

After removal of that plugin, IDEA restarted again.... I'll try to report this to plugin author.
