It opens 10 seconds, and close automatic. I work with MACOS 10.4, Tiger.

If you downloaded the Universal .dmg from this page:

http://inkscape.org/download/?lang=en

The problem might be that that version of Inkscape is intended for OSX 10.6 on Intel or PowerPC hardware.

The IS a version of 4.7 that is intended for OSX 10.4 Tiger on PowerPC here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/inkscape/files/inkscape/0.47/

Does that help?

See also the answer to this question: Q162271 "Inkscape 1.48.1 will not open in Mac OSX 10.4.11" https://answers.launchpad.net/inkscape/+question/162271

Note: there is a newer Tiger PPC package available for the initial release of Inkscape 0.48 (again, not a Universal binary): http://sourceforge.net/projects/inkscape/files/inkscape/0.48/Inkscape-0.48.0-1-TIGER-PPC.dmg/download

Later builds for Leopard and Snow Leopard will not run on Tiger (Intel or PPC).
