Macintosh Manager: How to Use QuarkXpress "XTensions" in a Macintosh Manager Environment

Use steps described here to resolve QuarkXpress "XTensions" alert messages in a Macintosh Manager environment.
Symptom

When starting QuarkXpress on a computer using Macintosh Manager, an alert box appears with this message:



Figure 1 QuarkXpress alert box

This alert box does not appear when you log in with System Access.


Solution

Some QuarkXpress XTensions must have read and write access to function completely. You can provide this access by moving the QuarkXpress folder into the "Other Applications·" folder. For more information on using and setting up the Other Applications· folder, please see:

Article 75333: "Macintosh Manager 1.3: Read Me"

If moving the QuarkXpress folder into the Other Applications· folder does not resolve the issue, follow these steps:

Important: Do not confuse the Mac OS Extensions Manager control panel with the QuarkXpress Xtensions Manager feature.

The XTension that reports an error status (Figure 2) while in System Access is not functioning because it must be updated or replaced. Its error status is not caused by Macintosh Manager. Please contact QuarkXpress (www.quarkxpress.com) for assistance with XTensions that do not load in QuarkXpress.
