Then, I went to 'save and exit to desktop' but when I loaded the game today I needed to save the girl all over again!  UGH!  Very disheartening. Can anyone enlighten me?  (That's one reason I like a game in a BOX, it always had directions or shortcuts with it)

Ok seems like the 1.1 patch is out now for the Mac, it has fixed my 
crashing problems, I finally can play the game.
Also the windows version of the patch is coming soon, it will address 
some performance issues in Europolis.
