My Notes lives in /Applications/Kommunikation/Notes.app/
My data lives in /Data/Lotus\ Notes\ Data/Opened mpkg and started install:
Installer doesn’t show the Notes install
Initially the “Continue” button was greyed out - going back and forth corrected that
Rest of the Install went smoth
Notes ends up being installed twice, still; deleting the former and moving the current version corrects the issue
Version Strings are wrong
Subject: Installer crashes on Mac OS X
Similar issues here. I installed first time no problems at all on my Macbook Pro. When I tried to install on my home iMac I got the same symptoms having to go backwards and forwards to get the Continue button to not be greyed out. Once the continue was clickable, I press it and the installer just quits on me. The logs show that it is due to a bus error.

Subject: Mac client: Dont untick “Make Notes my default email client” in installer.
Found the problem. You MUST keep “Make Notes my default email client” ticked. If you untick this and continue, the installer will crash. How did you miss this one IBM? 
Subject: Unticking Make Notes my default email client may crash Basic client installer.
Found the problem. You MUST keep “Make Notes my default email client” ticked. If you untick this >and continue, the installer will crash. How did you miss this one IBM?
Are you using the Basic client? “Make Notes my default email client” is not supported in Basic client installation and unchecking it will cause the intaller crash. This is a known issue XPFG7CN9ET.
Subject: untick make default mail client
Hi Ju, no, I am using the standard client.
Subject: upgrade from previous public beta is not supported
You must remove these previous files/folder first:/Applications/Notes.app
/Library/Receipts/Louts Notes Installer.pkg
/Library/Receipts/xpdcoreinstaller.pkg
/Library is on your system volume, for example Macintosh HD → Library
Subject: i removed everything but eclipse version will not start
I cleaned all the old beta notes client stuff, but now my notesclient will not start after configuration.
I tried
“/Applications/Notes.app/Contents/MacOS/maclauncher”
with no success.
This will fire up the basic client
“/Applications/Notes.app/Contents/MacOS/Notes”
but I need the eclipse client.
thank You for support.
ciao marco
Subject: It’s because the mac os x is running with German language, after I switched it works.
Here are the strange screenshots I have while I run the OS X with German language settings:
BTW the subdirectories are not shown in the OPEN DIALOG in English or with German language settings.
cheers marco
Subject: Where did you switch?
Hi Marco,did you switch on the mac the language or did you switch it in the Notes client?
I have the same issue and can’t get it to work.
Do I have to uninstall the client and than switch the language and reinstall it?
With kind regards
Bernd Hort

This public beta only supports English locale.
Subject: Re: German locale issues
(1)For pseudo string UI in language locales, I opened a spr for it: EECC7F8DSG: GVT: Expeditor UI should disable pseudo strings in release build
The workaround is to install under or switch to English locale.
(2)I could uninstall and reinstall and launch Standard Notes in German locale, but be noticed that some langaues locales could not installed or launch Notes, we have a spr for that problem. JLIN7EZ4W5: [DAILY ONLY] Mac GVT: Notes can’t launch after installed in some locales such as Russian
Subject: we did actually fix a similar problem before beta (meant as a response to Andy)
Unchecking the default mail option does not crash for me, but it seems there is some set of circumstances where the bug still exists. Are you on 10.5.3?
Subject: Same issue
On 10.5.2, if it helps.
Subject: SPR has been reopened, we will investigate. Thanks for the responses </>
Subject: untick make default mail client
Chris - Yes, I am on 10.5.3 
cheers
Subject: Thanks for reporting the issue. I wrote up one SPR JLLU7F8BLG for application name issue.
