Re: appleworks crashing

[Jim Foster]

As I understand it, one of the common recommendations relating to Mac 
OS X is that one should create a second User Account for testing 
situations like the one you are describing. By switching to this 
auxiliary user account, and then trying to do the same thing that is 
causing problems on the main Account, the theory i guess is that you 
are able to narrow down whether the problem is within the user Account, 
which I think might include the plist file thing you have already 
examined, or within the application or application installation itself.

Of course, perhaps you already have multiple accounts set up and have 
already looked at this.

Good luck!!!

For some weird reason, appleworks on our flatpanel iMac keeps 
crashing. Not consistently, or at certain times or levels of activity, 
but as often as once a day. I just downloaded and installed the latest 
update, hoping that would stabilize the little beast, but it crashed 
again last night while my wife was working on an important database.

Any help, suggestions, fixes?
