Sounds like a Mac issue (obvious now looking at the flyspec system spec at the bottom of your post) you might get a better response posting on the Mac board or contacting support directly.
Note: Lately I've developed the habit of not reading thread titles in Player Questions and the Tech board since I read all new posts and threads. That's why I didn't notice until now that the thread title was "Mac-Crash...".

Support will have better luck figuring out your problem based on specific info you send them (they'll tell you what to send) - but first, try to be patient, the iPatcher takes a while to unpack the files.
Also, if you're using Tiger (10.4.x) or pre-10.5.7 Leopard you may encounter that problem and be unable to complete installation.

Thanks for the replies. First thing this morning, I opened a help ticket with support (available only M-F, I gather). I waited long enough for iPatcher to start responding again, but it seemed content to hang for as long as I had patience.|

And this definitely is a Mac issue - my apologies for the mis-posting - since I was able to update without difficulty on my Windows partition.
By the way, what's the last few lines in the Console log before iPatcher freezes?
Console log is in Applications > Utilities > Console - you can copy/paste the last few lines here.

Today I've run into persistent problems updating City of Heroes with the latest auto-patch.
The updater on the welcome screen would download the Cider-COHR-Updated-002923.tgz patch but afterward iPatcher would hang while trying to unpack it. City of Heroes came up "not responding" in the Activity Monitor, so I force quit it, which unfortunately left the application unbootable afterward. I tried this again off a clean install from the AE edition DVD with the same failed results.
Anyone got any idea what's going wrong and how to fix it? Thanks in advance for the help,
