In the event Solar Eclipse Maestro crashes, a crash log is written. To help me correct the issue causing the crash, please follow these step by step instructions:
1) Explain how to trigger the crash and if it occurs every time.
2) Provide a copy of the crash log.
For that launch the Console application located in your Utilities folder. Once there make sure the Log List panel on the left hand side is displayed and unfold the LOG FILES > ~/Library/Logs and before locating the CrashReporter item to unfold it. Last select the SolarEclipseMaestro.log file. This is the crash log I need a copy of.
It will look like
