Hi milton,Why when i use stack and align Movie,program is close?!

Is the same issue you had previously, which was the preferences file got corrupted after you "upgraded" (semantically anyhow) to 10.6.7?

If not I will need more details (what the bug is, where it's happening, movie logs, mac model, OSX version etc.) and this should be sent to me directly at our support@outcastsft.com mail address. I would also need to know if this was happening before the 10.6.7 debacle upgrade too.

Secondly, I would advise anyone that has not upgraded to 10.6.7 to avoid it until Apple gets their head out of it's butt.

There have been a lot of reports of it basically being unstable and causing all sorts of issue for people and all sorts of different software (Apple software included, especially Fonts):

In fact I've seen reports of people having to re-installed OSX 10.6.x. before they could boot there Macs after the 10.6.7 upgrade (they would hang on re-boot after 10.6.7).

In my own testing, I have seen cases where when trying to select the default folder to save images / movies to, using Apple's "Folder selection" window will not allow you to select anything, and the "select" button is always grayed out. Quitting and restarting Astro IIDC and then it works again - with no changes to Astro IIDC. That rules out Astro IIDC as the culprit and points a buggy finger at Apple for inflicting 10.6.7. on Mac users - without doing any testing on it.

HTH..
