I've had a read around and I think the problem is that NSColor labelColor was first introduced in OS X yosemite and so does not exist in Mavericks. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26851306/trouble-matching-the-vibrant-background-of-a-yosemite-nsmenuitem-containing-a-cu

https://github.com/racket/racket/issues/2858
This last link says that if labelcolor is changed to blackcolor it worked. I can try changing it myself but i'm not sure where the file which references labelcolor is.
Just gave that another go now, still complains about the same issue, 'NSColor labelColor'.The only workaround i've found using version 2.2.12147 that was posted earlier on this page. However to get it to work you also need https proxy like squid, but after that I was able to login just fine. Was there any sort of security change to the newest updater, for example I think OS X mavericks only supports TLS 1.2 and not 1.3
Can confirm the new Launcher does still not work. It seems like the updater is failing, I remember seeing a command that allows minecraft to skip the updater and just run but I can't find it anymore. here's the error I get on my machine running OSX Mavericks:

Hi, yes this is still a problem with the version that Mojang provides for OS X Mavericks. But there is a workaround. You need try downloading this older version of the launcher:
[media]Maybe this version of the launcher can be provided as an alternative launcher for older macs? as it still seems to work fine.
