Check your code...sounds like the run button event has been tied to your nose instead of the application

A fifteen year old Amish boy and his father were in a mall. They were amazed by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny silver walls that could move apart and then slide back together again. The boy asked, 'What is this Father?' The father (never having seen an elevator) responded, 'Son, I've never seen anything like this in my life, I don't know what it is. While the boy and his father were watching with amazement, a fat old lady in a wheelchair moved up to the moving walls and pressed a button.
The walls opened, and the lady rolled between them into a small room. The walls closed and the boy and his father watched the small numbers above the walls light up sequentially. They continued to watch until it reached the last number and then the numbers began to light in the reverse order.
Finally the walls opened up again and a gorgeous 24-year-old blond stepped out.
The father, not taking his eyes off the young woman, said quietly to his son.. 'Go get your Mother'

Instead of a fifteen year old Amish boy & his dad, it's a geek son and his nerd Apple-Fan-boy Dad.
Instead of a large woman, it's a PC; instead of a young gal, it's a Mac.
Instead of Mom, it's Chris Maunder ...

I'm tempted to have the next straw poll be:
How often do you have to force quit applications in MacOS X?
[ ] All the time
[ ] Constantly
[ ] Once per application instance
[ ] Not sure - I'm getting the Spinning Pinwheel Of Doom because it's waiting on a network timeout.
|
|
|
|
|
[ ] Just works.

But, Apple stuff never crashes, and they never have viruses, either. ( I've actually heard sales guys claim this in an Apple store )

depends on who wrote the application... for instance I almost always have to force quit Microsoft's RDP application for MacOS.
but other apps like chrome, firefox, eclipse, etc. are no problem.
you want something inspirational??

Oh yeah - RDP on MacOS is truly a rough customer.

On my Mac I used to have a Barnes & Noble Nook book library / reading app. 99% of the time I'd have to force quit to exit that application. It's gone now...
In the 4+ years I've been using OS X, exiting that application is the ONLY time I've ever used force quit.
I know you didn't ask for help and I usually hate unsolicited forum responses like "Use Acme Utility v1.2, it works great!" but...
I use an OS X maintenance utility called Onyx[^]. It's free. Works great!

I perceive a rant.
Which color would you like?
[ ] Black
[ ] All colors mixed together
[ ] The color of Google's on-the-books profit over the past 12 quarters
[ ] Not sure - I'm blind ...
It's all Chris Maunder's fault ... but only Tuesdays when it snows during a 110 degree heatwave in the Bahamas.

There's a 'Force Quit' option?

Count yourself amongst the lucky ones. (And be glad your boss didn't suddenly tell you that you're now doing iOS development. What a pile-o-crap that is.)

I have an iMac next to me intended to be used for a port. I use it periodically to test code snippets and keep it up to date. I hate it. A few months ago, it told me to reboot to finish an update, but wouldn't let me reboot because an app was running. As far as I could tell, no app was running, so I pulled the plug. That worked. Did I say I hate my mac? (It's like someone put lipstick on a pig--parts of the UI are shiny, other parts are so incredibly clunky it's just plain weird. Then there's the horror of Finder. Amd what is it with that mammoth task bar? Who thought that was a good idea. Then there's XCode. Bottom line for me is that Apple designs gorgeous hardware and crappy software.)

In the news today it revealed that the most common password is now 123456. I am going to have to disagree. You see, in order to activate my Adobe license, I had to create an Adobe account. I don't use my Adobe account for anything; nor do I care about it in anyway; so yes, I chose 123456 merely so I could use the stupid software I bought.
After thinking about it, the breach probably isn't as bad as it seems since everyone else used 123456 too; indicating that they didn't want an Adobe Account either but were merely being forced to create one to Activate.

So since 123456 is a dummy password for a dummy account, it's a garbage-in, garbage-out data breach.
Poor hackers. That would burn.
