[OS X TeX] ams problems

[Gary L. Gray]

No problems here. I am using the development release of TeXLive 2007  
installed using the MacTeX installer from (see TeXLive-2007-Dev):

When I typeset:

\documentclass[journal,twoside,final]{IEEEtran}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\begin{document}
Hi.
\end{document}

the console gives:

This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)
  \write18 enabled.

There are no errors or problems that I can see.

 From what did you originally install TeX? If it is the above- 
mentioned distribution, I would try installing again.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
