Hi Eric,
I think I got the same error when I installed it on OSX after the last OS update. But if I recall the error went away after I restarted the machine. Classic! Have you tried this?

Hi Eric,
I mentioned before that I had the same problem when I upgraded OSX to Mavericks, and another Mac user also reported this problem. In both cases, it was solved by uninstalling and reinstalling Tracker. The uninstaller "uninstall_Tracker.app" is located in /usr/local/tracker.
The /usr directory is hidden by default, so you may have to do this to see it in the finder:
Open Finder
Open the Utilities folder
Open a terminal window
Type the following in the terminal and hit return:
Type the following in the terminal and hit return:
killall Finder
You should find you will now be able to see any hidden files or folders. Once you are done, repeat the steps above but replace TRUE with FALSE in step 4. (If TRUE/FALSE don't work, try YES/NO).
