If anyone on OSX has trouble launching the updated .app bundle: check the JVM specified in info.plist (right-click on the .app -> Show Package Contents -> Contents -> Info.plist) is 1.7* or (better, for Retina support) 1.8* . The default 1.6* just kept crashing for me (PyCharm 3.4.4, OSX 10.11.4, way too many Java versions installed for my own mental health).

In my Info.plist: <key>JVMVersion</key><string>1.8*,1.8+</string>, but still kept crashing. Have to rollback to old vulnerable version.

:( I have 1.8* and seems to work.

There is a workaround for start-up crashes

Please see if that works.
