@Nathaniel Clay, some useful info you could provide: Hardware specs (specifically CPU, GPU), which version of OS X, and your Dolphin settings (posted as text or a screenshot). Also, what games have you tried this on? A screenshot of the error message helps too.

I have Mac OS X Intel Cor Duo Processor
Processor Speed: 8GHz
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
It starts up beautifully and really fast and I have played on it before and it worked perfectly!

I'm afraid your specs will have to be more specific than that, i.e. what's the exact model of your CPU, and what's the exact model of your GPU. My sig is a good example of the kind of info that's required. If you don't know, you can just google the model of your Mac. Also, the Dolphin settings are important to know too.
Btw, your CPU isn't likely to run at 8GHz. It's probably a quad-core CPU, but that doesn't mean the CPU's overall speed is a combination of each core.

Wow isn't quad-core REALLY GOOD!
Not for dolphin, as it only uses 2 cores, which is what you will have if it is a core 2 duo.
Also if you have more than one core, you cannot add the cores' speeds together, as you can't do the next calculation without the previous one's results always, so 2 4GHz cores isn't 8GHz, it's two 4GHz cores.
Dolphin is usually a dual-core app. It can be a tri-core app if you use LLE Audio on Thread. If your each of the cores runs at, say, 2.0 GHz, then that's pretty slow for Dolphin. It won't use all of the cores your hardware has. It's a technical issue (thread synchronization), and it's not likely to change any time soon.
So, yeah, as soon as you get that info (specs, settings, screenshot of the error message), we can probably help you. Right now, we're all just guessing.

My Other Mac has dual core and wait wait... nope don't work still and the system info says
Processor Name: Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed: 2 GHz
Yep still have "Error Compiling at 0" issue
Could you say the name of the game that you are trying to emulate PLEASE? So we can help...

Super Mario Sunshine...I have played it on this computer before so don't now whats going on!
Maybe I should jst give up
I wounder If an update will come out soon...hopefully.

I don't want to sound rude, but you simply aren't providing us with usable info to help you. We know that your CPU is a Intel Core Duo, but we don't know what
specific model it is. There are a few CPUs that fall under the Intel Core Duo category, iirc, and even a couple that run at 2GHz. My CPU is an i5. There are lots of i5 CPUs out there. But the exact model is a 2500K.
Also, we have no idea what GPU you're running, you haven't said anything about it. It's okay if you don't know. Just tell us what model Mac you have; since Apple keeps its hardware largely the same for every product it sells, we can still find out what you have. And once more:

If you can't find out anything more about your hardware, the least you can do is to tell us your Dolphin settings (posted as text, or a screenshot), and I'm serious about that screenshot of the error message. Screenshots of error messages are often very accurate and help to provide a context for the error itself. So please at least provide that much. Technically, this thread could still be closed since you haven't really told us yet.
