I got a OS X 10.7 vmware image and it works fine, but I can't load ANYTHING in chrome. See this: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=MsQMdO7vUho
Not even it's internal webpages, like preferences or history, will load. Firefox and Safari work just fine. I tried deleting my chrome profile and reinstalling chrome several times.

Might be that Chrome does not like Lion running in a VMware image.

Chrome works fine on my Mac running Lion.

I'm wondering if it's just that there's some hidden profile thing that''s corrupt, there's something about the image I used that it doesn't like, or maybe there's something that vmware isn't properly emulating for it.

You may have a weird permissions issue...
Use the command- ls -al to see the permissions of everything.

See if yours match mine-

Applications Folder
drwxrwxr-x@ 3 ben admin 102 Apr 18 16:19 Google Chrome.app

User/Caches folder
drwxr-xr-x@ 3 ben staff 102 Apr 7 15:17 com.google.Chrome
Even the experts started out as beginners

Hmm... when I typed that command in terminal, it told me I needed arguments for it...
