[comp.sys.mac.apps] QUED-M 2.07 & System 6.0.7 & Multifinder => Hang?

delaney@xn.ll.mit.edu (John R. Delaney) (11/22/90)

A colleague using a Mac IIx with 5 MB of memory is having a strange
problem. If he uses Multifinder under System 6.0.7 and launches QUED-M
version 2.07 using OnCue, it hangs or complains about the lack of a
co-processor (flashing the latter message over and over very rapidly). The
problem does not occur with the normal Finder. Before he starts looking for
offending INITs, can someone reassure him that the problem is not the
combination of the application and the system software?

Thanks in advance,

John

Hi,

I too, have had problems with QUED-M 2.07, but on system 6.0.5.  I called
Paragon Concepts and was told that this is a bug in QUED-M 2.07.  An upgrade
to version 2.09 is available if you send in your original QUED-M disk and $10,
requesting the upgrade.  I do not know what new features, if any, are in 
version 2.09.

It's definitely QUED/M. I have a IIsi with the same symptoms, and phoned 
Paragon. I (and your colleague) have to send in the original disk plus
$10 to get an upgrade.

One of the new features in QUED/M 2.09 is that it now has separate
Open... and Catalog... a la Nisus. This is useful if you use
Findswell/Shortcut/Boomerang or some other SFGetFile utility.
