Comment (by heywoodj123@…):

 On MacOS 10.6.8, I can confirm that the space in the default path to
 TorBrowser-Data/ does indeed seem to be at least part of the cause. I
 installed a clean copy of TorBrowser 6.5a3 to the Desktop and ran it from
 there, and it starts normally. Installing it in /Applications causes the
 "Could not connect to Tor control port" error described above.
