Under "Applications" or under
"Processes"? applications
You have to look under Processes. Applications
only shows the main windows thread, which is gone. It is
background tasks (notably the poster or central count) that cause the
problem.
Can you reproduce it? yes on my
laptop and Santa Barbara can too- they just
did
they were running central count - didn't stop - were printing
reports (summary by precinct) got thrown out of gems completely -
back to desktop - went to open gems again and got the message above
- said ok- tried again and got
in
Woah...
Back up here. Are you saying you can you cause GEMS to crash by
printing reports while running central count? Can you reproduce
this? Has this been reported? This is serious and needs to be
tracked down.
You will almost
certainly find a GEMS thread under Processes. Kill it and you won't
get the GEMS already open error when you restart. But we need to
track down and fix the crash.
