If there is not an outline list on the left, click the Show Log List button in the toolbar. Expand ~/Library/Logs. Expand CrashReporter. NameChanger crash logs will begin with "NameChanger" and then have a timestamp at the end. Right click on one of the logs you got from one of the crashes you described and select Mail. This will open an email with that crash log attached. Send it to mrrsoftware (at) mrrsoftware (dot) com. @Denis C. – To send a crash log after the fact: launch /Applications/Utilities/Console.

Sun, 02 Nov 2008 14:15:02 +0000 http://mrrsoftware.com/blog/?p=32#comment-42 Very useful application indeed, but I have a recurrent problem on my eMac 10.5.5. Every 3rd or 4th usage, NameChanger 2.2 (don't know about the other versions) will crash (spinning beach ball and all). This is automatic. I would have like to send a report (as prompted by the system each time it occurs), but I am not usually connected to the Internet when this happens. Is there anything I should know or do better? Thanks. Very useful application indeed, but I have a recurrent problem on my eMac 10.5.5.

I had to do a "Check for Updates", then get the domain name from the Little Snitch warning message. You should add a link to your website from the "About NameChanger" dialog box, or perhaps even add a "NameChanger Product Page" to the Help menu. Otherwise, it's much harder for people whose lives you've made vastly easier to donate. (Yep; I'm one such person. Thanks.)

Still love this app! One more request, though. Instead of hiding the 'Check all' and other funtions under the 'Options' toolbar button, can we have them as draggable items to add or delete from the toolbar direct? That'll save having to open the separate 'Options' menu to select these very handy functions, making the use of NameChanger even more enjoyable. Five stars - and if and when my suggestion has been incorporated, you'll get six. :) Thanks! Still love this app! One more request, though.
