Getting back to ABCs after a summer break and discovered I can’t use EasyABC any more.
Still running Mac 10.13.6 and everything worked fine up to earlier this summer. I had to have
the keyboard on my MacBook replaced but can’t imagine how that would affect EasyABC. . .?
Now I get nothing but a blank grey box when I open the program - no panes, no menus, nothing.
Command-O on an existing file has no effect. Won’t accept a paste from TextEdit or BarFly (all
bow heads, please) either. Shut it down and restarted it but no joy. Tried opening Help, no
response.
Tried 1.3.7.7., equally zilch.
I have a big project in line for the next few months and am counting on EasyABC.
Any ideas?
Thanks

If you can't get EasyABC going, you could try Qabc http://brouits.free.fr/qabc/. It doesn't have all the functionality
of EasyABC so might not suit your project's needs, but it's a reliable
writer/editor/displayer of abc files. Might be a way of progressing with
your project until you can get EasyABC fixed.

Thanks to Ray for responding. Not much thanks to anyone else who realized that hitting the "cold restart" in "settings" might be the fix but didn't get around to telling me. Honestly, folks - I wouldn't have been offended!
