Metacard does not start on a second Mac

[Wilhelm Sanke]

I tried to transfer the Metacard IDE and a stack from my G4 Powerbook to 
a second, but very much faster G4 Powerbook to see the speed differences 
for scripts in the stack. Both Powerbooks run with OS 10.3.9. I used a 
USB-stick to put the files on the other computer.

When I start Metacard on the second Mac, which had neither Metacard nor 
Revolution installed before, something flashes and the Metacard icon 
briefly appears in the dock, but it is not started. Clicking on the 
accompanying file after that results also in nothing.

What am I missing? Has this maybe to do with administrator rights for 
installing new programs? And how could I overcome that?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Best regards,
