The issues appear only when I use a signed archived release of my app for a standard or guest user. Debug builds are fine.
The issues seem to be: 1. My preferences file does not get updated on first launch. This causes trouble further on. 2. In -applicationDidFinishLaunching: an exception is raised because of the failure to find a key in NSUserDefaults. 3. NSApplication logs the exception in 2 but does not abort. This effectively short circuits -applicationDidFinishLaunching leaving the app in an unanticipated state. I probably mis-diagnosed the original issue. I can probably insert a try/catch block in -applicationDidFinishLaunching: but the main issue is the write failure of the preferences file. Perhaps I need to try sandboxing and see what happens. I ‘seem' to be tripping over some code signing / security infrastructure that comes into play for non admin users.
