A second (unrelated) file that is also protected continues to require a password to open. This data needs to remain protected.2) I can no longer access the filemaker help file. Reinstalling the software did a general activation not rectify the problem and all the knowledge base articles I have looked at (under 'file corruption') are about operating from a server. Mine are standalone files on a single computer.Other info:-At around the time these problems began my computer froze twice, both while iTunes was playing (the music continued playing even though everything else froze)-I typically use Filemaker pro 9, Microsoft office, Firefox and iCal simultaneously.Any assistance is appreciated and thanks to those who have already taken a crack at this one.ishulman

Re: Unable to access on-board filemaker help file davidanders Oct 8, 2009 11:12 AM (in response to ishulman) I would suggest creating a New User in Accounts in the System Preferences.Logout and Login as the New User and test things.This can narrow it down to a system problem or user account problem.Monthly Maintenance is important (and running the utility after crashes)On Macs I recommend AppleJackhttp://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596About AppleJackhttp://www.pcworld.com/printable/
