Hi Alan
Sorry to hear that mate, then we need someone more "in the know", than we are  %)

@cdbc:
You are correct that more information is required but quite honestly this is messy and I really doubt it is solvable (completely).

Some things got really mixed between the two different installations and trying to figure out how and what to do to fix it will probably cost more time than doing a fresh installation (with some guided instructions that prevents the different installations from being mingled).

alanyoung:
I have already done fresh installations, but to no avail.  Any guidance regarding a clean up would be appreciated.  As already stated I have use CleanMyMac to uninstall Lazarus and then I have looked for any remaining hidden references to Lazarus & the free pascal compiler and manually deleted them.

Would you be able to elaborate on what steps you did exactly to have "done fresh installations" ?

If I remember correctly then there has been a discussion (recent 2-3 months) with someone else having similar issues on a mac and (again if I remember correct) user Dbannon was very helpful in an attempt to get to the bottom of cleaning up his machine but unfortunately I can't seem to find/locate the thread... I personally do not know anything about macos.

alanyoung:
I have used CleanMyMac to uninstall Lazarus and then manually deleted any files directories that I could identify as pascal related.  Finally today I found UninstallPKG from Core Code which was suggested as a recommended method for removal on the freepascal.org web site.  Unfortunately although the process claimed to have removed everything, on re-installing I had the same errors when trying Project-> Project Options->Test.
