Srely others of you have experienced this problem - Quark 7.5 bombs after printing, now that I've upgraded to 10.6. I've done all the updates (to 10.6.4), and tried all the tricks found on the Mac user forums and the Quark forums. The move to 10.6 was made necessary when we decided to upgrade to CS5, with the intention of moving to InDesign. But we will still use a lot of Quark files while we transition...
Has anyone found a permanent fix to this problem?
Your OS is newer than the application would be my guess, update to Quark 8 would be Quarks answer. CS5 doesn't require 10.6 either as you can see below. If you can run it, an install of 10.5.7 may fix it. I had to do that with my new iMac because of networking and application issues, and since I paid for Applecare, I called and Apple sent me OS 10.5.8 at no charge. That was last year tho...
