(mac) application menu

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Peter,

Maybe I was wrong with my previous suggestion. Have you tried  
changing both the Name field in the General pane and the Name field  
in the OSX pane?

I did have the same problem some time ago and I am sure I solved it  
by changing one of these fields.

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille
