It is reading the first line in the users "prefs.rc.py" file which on my 
machine (Win) is in "C:\Users\myuserid\.boa-constructor", I don't know 
were a Mac keeps it user specific stuff.

The first line should look like:

## rc-version: 18 ##

What does yours show in the first line?

The easy fix is probably just to rename the .boa-constructor folder and 
it will be rebuild.

If it happens again then we need to try to determine what is really 
going wrong, i.e. what configuration settings are you changing .....

See you
Werner
