• Do the devs know about this? I don't use the program as I dont' need to any data base work, how ever I think it woudl be a good idea to contact the devs about this as I know some other list members use bento on their macs. Firstly, I really wonder whether this is helpful given that you don't use the software. . The question from Zack was whether anybody else is seeing the issue. So, let me try to answer it, as we are Bento users. Zack, yes, the issue exists here but let me tell you what's going on visually while you're seeing the busy signals. Bento is searching for a valid library. It also contacts the server on every launch to see if your copy is registered or not. Then, software update comes into play. Bento does a pretty strange sequence of checking different servers to see if there's a software build later than yours. It seems to be the case that Bento is going into a loop when VoiceOver tris to interact with it. Whether this is Apple's fault or not, I don't know. However, I believe that Apple has shares in the Filemaker Corporation so it might be a good idea to contact them first. However, as a short-term work-around, Launch Bento with VO turned off and leave it for about 30 seconds. You may then find it works. Not always, but most of the time when I have tried this it does seem to work.
