Hi, I am struggling with this issue for quite some time on OS/X 10.6.8 Dual Core (i.e. 32-bit).
I have tried to clean Preferences, go one version down from latest release, reinstalling latest JRE (1.6) from Apple site - nothing moves me past this:

/Applications/JBidwatcher.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub ; exit; etMac:~ edis$ /Applications/JBidwatcher.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub ; exit;
Can't disable App Nap; native code not available.

    By now I have figured, that DeskMetrics.java in this line tries to use "long" variable totalDiskSpace, that has been declared, but never initialized nor assigned value. For some reason it appears to be null pointing, instead of initialized with 0 by default. At this point I try to rebuild DeskMetrics part, that appears to be failing, however did not yet succeed with it, as my Java skills are either well forgotten or insufficient.
