Problems with applications

Tuesday, September 30, 2008 by Skinnytroll | Discussion: ObjectDock

About half of the applications on my objectdock crash immediately or shortly after opening them, and only do this if launched from the objectdock. Anyone know what this might be?

Can you provide more information?

  • What apps?
  • What version and build of OD?
  • What version and build of OS?
  • What is the exact error on crash?

What apps?
Like half of them i.e. iTunes, Thunderbird, Google Chrome, WoW, Trillian
What version and build of OD?
Plus, but I had the same problem with the free version.
What version and build of OS?
Operating system? Vista SP1
What is the exact error on crash?
The program just stops responding, so I have to close it with task manager or by right clicking it on the taskbar.

Skinny,

I checked your account and it does not show OD+ listed, could you have used a different e-mail address for your purchase? Maybe you used PayPal?

Send us an e-mail at [email protected], as Hankers suggested. Include your OD+ serial number.

Wait you need an account for plus? Oh I guess this isn't plus then..

I thought they just upgraded the free version and called it plus or something.

Two versions, one is free and called ObjectDock, the other is a paid for version called ObjectDock Plus.

You shouldn't be having these problems with the free version though.

What is the build #?  It's at the bottom of the about window.

Can you do a screenshot and post it here? - Click on Configure ObjectDock icon and then on Docklets in the left panel and post that screenshot.

Version 1.90-Build 534 is the free version I have used since Dec,07 and it has never crashed,not once during daily use by a total computer dummy.Is mine configured wrong,or should I blame Vista?

I don't see any docklets that would cause issues. If you haven't done so already, please email [email protected] and start a trouble ticket. They will be able to assist you.

As opposed to this happening with Plus?

This shouldn't be happening with either the 'free' version or the 'Plus' version. Support will be able to determine what is conflicting and causing the issues.
