[Ham-Mac] Fix for Weird OS X Application Crashes

[David Ferrington, M0XDF]

That is the error affecting my MissingSync app - I've tried an install  
of the combo, but to no avail.
I have contacted Mark/space about it and I'll try the update again -  
3rd time lucky!
Thanks for the tip, at least I know what caused it and that I'm not  
alone!
