When I try to execute the shell script in the folder, I get this error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Main
according to the OSX troubleshooting guide, this means that I haven't properly installed it by putting the minecraft.jar file into the lib folder. But I did this, and still get that error.
Yes, same error, even though I put it on the desktop like the tutorial said.
what OSX version do u have 10.5? 10.6? leopard? snow leopard? tiger?
my only solution is that u should re-DL it.
That didn't help.
BAMP! I really want to be able to run it!
If it helps, here is the full error message.

Click here to make sure you have the latest version of Java.
Of course I made sure I have the latest version of Java, I've searched all over the web for what the problem is. Found nothing that worked though. Can anyone here who knows Java help me?
I'm actually having the same problem you are, but on a PC. I haven't figured anything at all out. I've uninstalled Java, removed anything related to it and Minecraft, cleared my caches on everything, performed all system updates, fixed my registry, everything possible. Still, I get the same persistent and annoying error.
Have you been able to run the browser version? try it. if not try going into the #minecraft IRC or the minecraft forums. you might find a better answer there. But if it does work just forget it and comment back.
Yes, the browser version for me works perfectly.
Same here, the browser version works perfectly (except for the tab key), and the custom client doesn't at all.
I have the exact same problem.
I'm also using snow leopard, with latest java and the browser version works fine.

Try Reinstalling Java
I had this issue on a Snow Leopard Machine too!!!!! I fixed this by renaming the folder with the client "Minecraft" (no quotes.) That fixed it for me!
I really can't see how the name of the folder should affect anything. Anyway, that didn't work.
