    What could be the cause fo the application to run differently between user accounts?

    Why would some accounts get different setting when the program was installed?

    Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks a lot!

      Any one know what files from Qt could be causing the problem?

      I basically tried to create a new user account but I have too many programs using databases, preferences etc that could be broken if I move to a different account.

      Any help will be appreciated.

        Found and fixed the problem.

        The problem had to do with some corrupted fonts and as soon as I recover my system and user fonts to the default the application started working fine.

        I basically followed the steps in the following page...

        http://www.jklstudios.com/misc/osxfonts.html

        Go to the bottom of the page to the Reinstalling your fonts: section and follow the instructions there. The instructions in this article are to restore your system and library fonts but if you have fonts in your user Fonts folder move them to a different folder and move them back using Font Book, the reason I used Font Book is because when you drop them into it to installed them, Font Book actually verifies that there are no duplicates in the other Fonts folders which could lead to font collision or corrupted fonts.

        Read the whole article to have a better understanding of how fonts work, that’s a very good article.

        Thanks
