This is the message I got when I just finished running Onyx. I shut it off and re ran Onyx same message. Any ideas?

Was Safari open at the time? If so, quit Safari first and see if that sorts things out.

Onyx closes all apps when it runs, but not this time. I closed it and then reran onyx and got the same message. I closed it again and tried restart and same message...

thanx

"Closing" an app (red dot in corner) is not the same as "quitting" an app. If you're "closing" Safari, then all you're doing is closing a window -- the app itself is still active (as should be obvious by the indicator in the dock).

Is that what's happening?

I closed it correctly thank you. The problem was solved by force shutting down the computer.

Thanx for your help friends!
