[QUOTE="vinkadog, post: 1347776, member: 231032"] I installed ADE under my regular user account--it just wouldn't work properly unless I was logged in as root user. I installed Evernote through the Mac App Store on the root user account. Evernote works in the root user account, and in the new user account I just created, but not in my regular account. So if your idea were correct, Evernote wouldn't work in the new user account--but it does. Also, Netflix streaming works in both root user and the new user account, but not in my regular user account. That's through Safari and not a separate app. So I see where you're going, and it's a logical guess--but I don't think that's the case here, given the new user account's ability to use these apps. Great ideas though, and thank you! [/QUOTE]
