Has anyone got the message "Please move to 'Application ' Directory" even though the application is in the application directory? When I reinstall the application it works but once I exit the application and try to execute the application I get the error

Has anyone got the message "Please move to 'Application ' Directory" even though the application is in the application directory? When I reinstall the application it works but once I exit the application and try to execute the application again I get the error. The application I am having problems with is iCMS (software to view security cameras online)


Thank you.

iCMS (DVR viewer)-OTHER, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

Whilst it may not be your fault I am afraid it appears that your post is on a forum which is not the best for your OS. It will save the time of the unpaid volunteers here, and may resolve your issue faster, if you could examine the list below and see if there is a more appropriate forum to which you could direct your question.

I think the automated system initially placed your question on the Tiger forum because you originally posted it on the Tiger page at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1442.


However, some kind person has moved it to the Mavericks forum for you.


I am afraid I can't help you because I don't have Mavericks.


Good luck - I hope you find a speedy solution to the issue.

Testing in a new User will quickly tell you if the problem is system wide or if it's your User's folder that contains the problem.



CREATE A NEW USER


Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Accounts. Switch to the New User by logging out/in or use Fast User Switching.



Do you still see the issue?



If yes, then the problem is with your base files.

If no, then the problem is in your User's folder.


If the problem went away, try resetting permissions.

I conducted the test as described and the problem still exist with new user id. Just to provide you with more information. I have two MacBook Pro running 10.9.1 (OS Maerick) and they both have the same problem. I also have a desktop running 10.7.5 (OS Lion) and the problem does not happen on this system. I suspect there is a compatiblity issue between iCMS and OS Maverick.

Again, thank you for your assistance.
