New versions of plugin Follow

Just change system, config, log and plugin directories in your idea,properties file, which is located in your IDEA bin directory. You just can't run two instances of IDEA with the same system directory.

idea.dynamic.classpath=false
swing.bufferPerWindow=false
CVS_PASSFILE=~/.cvspass
idea.smooth.progress=false
idea.max.intellisense.filesize=2500
idea.xdebug.key=-Xdebug
apple.awt.fullscreencapturealldisplays=false
idea.cycle.buffer.size=1024
com.apple.mrj.application.live-resize=false
java.endorsed.dirs=
sun.java2d.noddraw=true
idea.jars.nocopy=false
sun.java2d.pmoffscreen=false
idea.use.default.antialiasing.in.editor=false
idea.fatal.error.notification=disabled
apple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=true
idea.no.launcher=false
sun.java2d.d3d=false
apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true

It's commented in this file:

Sorry which file is that ? In the mac version of 12 within the package contents and then bin directory the idea.properties didnt contains that

This is Windows version. But properties are the same for Mac, even this file doesn't contain such commented properties.

Thanks

Any idea of the intellij env variable for osx mountain lion to get it to appear in library ?

Thanks

Ignore that - have it as $USER_HOME

I don't have any information about OSX specific things, it's better to use IntelliJ IDEA general discussion forum for such question or support@jetbrains.com.
