I ran into a problem with Quackle for my macbook recently, but seem to have found the solution. Thought I would share for others who are doing the same thing wrong as I.
I downloaded quackle for macbook (the first of the two links for mac on the website), and the download process went smoothly. I copied the "quackle" folder to applications. I opened the "quackle" folder, and moved the quackle icon (the one that looks like a Q) to my desktop. When I tried to open THAT when it was on the desktop, it fails to load the dictionaries or something, and won't let me do anything because of it. But the instant I moved the Q icon back into the quackle folder which was in applications, it worked fine again. So for me, the quackle Q icon must be in the quackle folder (along with the data folder being in there too) for it to work. I then realized I could move the quackle folder out to the desktop, but not the actual quackle Q icon by itself. Sorry if this has been openly discussed already; i just joined the group so I may have missed it. Otherwise, glad to be a help to anyone who found this useful. -Nigel Peltier
