This problem may occur in the Mac version when you use the “Full-Screen Mode” option, because of an incompatibility issue in the Apple's version of Java.
This problem will be resolved in a later Catan - Cities & Knights update. Until then, you can avoid this problem

by switching off the “Full-Screen Mode” in the options menu (accessible from the main menu), or
