Hi Sarah, Yes, I'm running the standalone on the same computer, for which I do have admin access.
More experimenting, all on the same computer (running 10.4.7): I've created two identical 'hello world' apps; one created from scratch in 2.7 works fine as a standalone, but one first created in 2.6 won't launch as a 2.7 standalone. This is the only pattern I've found: none of my stacks created in Dreamcard 2.6, then opened in 2.7 and saved in 2.7 format, form standalones that launch. I tried making a 2.7 standalone from a stack from one of the online conferences, and that did work fine. That gives me hope that the problem isn't in my main project specifically, but I am stumped as to what might be causing it, or what to do. Can a card be somehow copied or cloned from a 2.6 Dreamcard file into a fresh 2.7 one? (I just tried to copy & paste a few objects but nothing happened when I chose 'paste.') -Curt >Hi Curt, >It sounds like you have a permissions problem.
