What's the best way to use Silverback from multiple user accounts?
How can I use Silverback from a different user account? I installed Silverback onto a laptop as my regular user account. When it came time to run a usability test, I created a new "demo" login so there would be no crud on the desktop/dock etc, and launched Silverback (I didn't install it again). The application launched just fine, and recorded a session, but when I stopped the session and returned to the front screen of the application there was a pause (possibly the regular spinner) and then Silverback crashed and submitted an error report. So... what's the right way to set up Silverback on a second login?

Inappropriate?Hello there
The Silverback data is stored in your home directory, under Library/Application Support/Silverback. We haven't tested this, so I'm not sure if it will work, but you could tell Silverback to save this within the global Library/Application Support.
Let me know if it works.
Best
Sophie
I’m hopeful

Inappropriate?Thanks Sophie - I tried it, and it didn't work. You will have received a crash report (or someone will have... whereever they go to). But thanks anyway. It's not a biggie for me... just a nice to have.
Cheers
Richard
I’m unconcerned
