I don't use GM4Mac (well, I don't use Mac at all), but it would help other people if you actually told them what the error was.

You're trying to run GM4Mac in a Classic (Mac OS 9) computer?

GM4Mac was written for Mac OS X (Intel, Leopard or better) computers. There's no way GM4Mac can run in Mac OS 9.

I made the game on Mac OS X 10.6.8. It works on my computer, it doesn't work on other intel mac computers. That's why I am asking is there any option to check? something I am doing wrong?

You can check the whole thing here:

Your game was only a few hundred bytes?

Realise that Mac Apps are actually just folders. File hosts may get confused by that, so you should zip it or put it in a disk image before uploading.

File hosts *will* get confused if you send them a .app, you need to zip every .app you upload somewhere.
