Did you ever resolve your problem with El Capitan, @ckeoghan? I’m about to upgrade to El Capitan, but don’t want to if people are having problems running their accounting software.
I installed El Capitan. Manager runs fine. Unfortunately, it still seem subject to whatever causes the random freezes. First one only took about 3 minutes. I’ll let you know if their frequency seems different after a few days of use.
@ckeoghan, so other Mac users can watch for the same problem, would you please clarify something? In your first post on this topic, you mentioned “crashing.” Does the entire operating system crash? Or does only Manager have problems?
The problem others have reported on earlier OS X releases, which persists for me with El Capitan, affects only Manager. It is recognizable by the fact that the Back button still functions and will, eventually, take you all the way back to the launch screen. But nothing else works. This is random, and can happen within a few minutes or may not occur for days. Closing and reopening the program always restores functionality.
I am having a similar problem in that the system just crashes and then restarts. It happens at least once a day and is quite frustrating. Ill post the report later today when it happens.
Are you actually saying Manager restarts automatically? This is completely different from the freeze several Mac users have reported. In the latter case, the program stays open, but the only thing that works is the Back button. One can go backwards all the way to the opening screen (or possibly until some internal limit is reached, which I never have). Closing and relaunching resolves the issue with no loss of data, just lost time.
