Hi Robert,

The answer may lie in the log files which can be accessed in the Console.app

   Applications > Utilities > Console.app

But before going down that road MYOB is definitely responsible. I can't quote 
the actual law (in Canada it's the 'Sales of Goods Act') but if you sell a 
product that does not perform the function for which it is designed the 
purchaser is entitled to full refund. The accountant probably doesn't want a 
refund but I think he should be more assertive with MYOB.

However, if that is not the path he wishes to follow, see if the log files 
offer a clue as to why the app isn't launching. What version  OS X does he have 
and is it a standard install -- in that has he installed any exotic apps as yet?

Cheers,
Carlo
