Unexpectedly Quit

[Irene M]

I'm working with FileMaker 5.5 and OSX 10.1.4 and evry times I want to startup FM he stops with an "unexpectedly quit" and I have to try several times to make it work.

I've trashed mij filemaker.plist but it didn't help.

All mij collegues have the same problem, but one, the boss, he is working with MacOS 9.

Pleas help me, this problem is driving me crazy.

Hello Irene:

Do the computers running OS 10 meet the requirements set by FileMaker?

* Apple G3 computer or higher (excluding G3 upgrade cards)

* 128MB of RAM required

* Hard Disk and CD-ROM drive

Hello Kenneth,

Thank you for answering..and..yes everything is allright and up to date.

The problem seems to be in the openfile. I've wrote that in FM 5.0 on MacOS 9. Sins I wrote a totaly new file it works. But I wonder why! All other files where also written on my old system are working out of the blue. Any idea?

Hmmm....

Sorry, I can't be of much help anymore. Is FM telling you that it has unexpectedly quit, and that an error log is being generated? Or is it a system message? The only other thing I can think of is re-installing FM on the machines w/problems and making sure you have the latest update of FM from the FM website. Or perhaps there is something that is written into your file that is not compatible with 5.5 anymore.

I'm glad to hear that you got it to work, though.
