Re: One instance of app running



Perhaps your application bundle is set up wrong?
Without going to extreme measures it's usually not possible to make a Mac app which can launch multiple instances.

All,

I need to ensure that there's only one instance of my app running. Some of this seems to happen automatically -- for example, if I click on my doc-type, it starts up the app if it's not running, or sends an open doc event to it if it is running. But if I click on the app it starts another instance, and this is what I don't want to have happen. Instead, I'd like it to turn into a reopen apple event to the existing instance.
