A person who has bought a license for a standalone of mine is having a problem running it. Here is the note he sent. Does anyone know the answer to his problem, so I can help him? I made the program with Rev 2.1.
Thanks,

I installed the program and I can run it fine as an admin. However, I can't give the student (non-admin) account permission to use it. It doesn't appear in the list of applications to select. If I click "locate..." and browse to the application and select it that way, it tells me it won't run with the limitations I've select, but it doesn't tell me the specific problem.

I tried adding permissions to change system preferences and such things, but I still get the error. It seems like maybe it doesn't want to run at all for a managed user account, but I don't see why it would need admin rights to do anything it's doing.

 Any ideas on how I can get this to work?

If I remember right, there was a similar problem with Rev itself back around 2.1. The solution was to Get Info on the application, and set all the permissions (owner, group, and everyone) to read/write. The issue was fixed with later versions of Rev.

I'd consider upgrading and rebuilding the standalone with 2.9 though. Rev 2.1 is four years old, and I'd be surprised if it were entirely compatible with newer versions of the OS.
