iLoveStickies

I just downloaded the iLove Stickies from the App Store. I cannot move it, delete it or type on it! I want to delete it completely but when I tried to it says "it is in use and cannot be deleted"! I looked on the forum for others with the same issue and it doesn't seem like the problem has been resolved!

Try quitting the app with Activity Monitor.


Open Activity Monitor (it's in the Utilities folder.)

In the upper right corner click in the search box and type the exact name of the app.

When the app shows in the monitor, click on it.

Then tap the circled X in the toolbar and affirm you want to quit the app.
