[comp.sys.mac] Anyone having problems with Disktop 3.0 Search & MultiFinder?

moriarty@tc.fluke.COM (Jeff Meyer) (11/11/87)

I just upgraded from DiskTop 2.0 to 3.0 because it has the world's bestest
file search option (search by file TYPE, CREATOR, modicification or creation
dates, name -- or any combination thereof.  Yowsah!).  And I've upgraded to
MultiFinder -- the one that came to Developers (MF 1.0/Finder 6.0/System 4.2
(SIDE NOTE: I still haven't seen it at Apple Dealers -- for all I know
they'll release a newer version)).

Well, problems.  Everytime it reaches the end of a search under MultiFinder
-- boom, a bomb.  It has also done this occasionally under Finder, but not
always.

Oh, yeah, and I'm using Suitcase.  And running QuicKeys.  That should
complicate things.

All I ask -- has anyone else had these problems?  Or am I cursed?

I am running the same software configuration as you (MF, QuicKeys, DiskTop 3.0,
SuitCase) plus TMON on my Mac II with 5MB and have not once experienced the
crash which you describe.  Could there be something else involved?
