I tried to transfer the Metacard IDE and a stack from my G4

OS 10.3.9. I used a USB-stick to put the files on the other computer.
When I start Metacard on the second Mac, which had neither
Metacard nor Revolution installed before, something flashes and the
Metacard icon briefly appears in the dock, but it is not started.
Clicking on the accompanying file after that results also in nothing.
What am I missing? Has this maybe to do with administrator rights
for installing new programs? And how could I overcome that?
This is the same behavior that is occuring when trying to build a UB
standalone, but if you copied the PPC version it should work.
Were you logged in as an administrator when you copied the app? That
is all that should be required.

The faster G4 is configured to automatically boot with the administrator
keyword, meaning that something else must be required to launch the MC IDE.
And: Should there not be a default dialog for such cases in the Mac OS -
similar to asking for an administrator keyword when installing new
software from a CD?
I tried to the same with my wife's iBook - same results: When starting
the MC IDE (2.6.5 in this case) the icon briefly flashes in the dock and
then nothing. However, a standalone built on my G4 can be started on her
machine without problems.
Any further ideas?
Thanks for the response anyway.
The only thing I can think of is that Rev now requires a registered and
licensed version on the drive before the engine will run. If you haven't
installed Revolution and licensed it first, other IDEs may not work. Now
technically, the MC IDE (or any other) is supposed to ask for your
license code if it hasn't already been recorded on the machine, but this
may not have happened for some reason.
You might try installing Revolution, licensing it, then quitting and
launching the MC IDE. That may fix it. It's all I can think of right
now, anyway.
