Hello...
I am getting this error when I try to save (save as) my setup. A
dialog box pops up. This is the complete message:
Couldn't complete the last command because of
a Mac OS Error.
Error = -50
If I then try to save it again (save) I get this error:
Couldn't complete the last command because
the file is already open.
Error = -49
I have been using the beta versions with the beta key for the last month
or so. We (finally) purchased a 25 device license which I installed. I
then downloaded 3.5b5. I originally thought this was a license thing.
But it appears not.
I thought I would try a few things. I deleted the entire
/Library/Application Support/InterMapper Settings directory. Same
error. This happens no matter where I try to save the file, ~ ,
~/Desktop, ~/Desktop/Intermapper, etc.
Mac OS 10.0.3, InterMapper 3.5b5
? ? ?
I also noticed some bad directory permissions:
[localhost:~/Desktop/InterMapper-OSX-3.5b5] chrismcc% pwd
/Users/chrismcc/Desktop/InterMapper-OSX-3.5b5
[localhost:~/Desktop/InterMapper-OSX-3.5b5] chrismcc% ls -la
total 146

The main binary, InterMapper.app, has good permisions, but a lot of
stuff is world writable.
TIA
