It sounds like your stack has the cursor stacks embedded in it as
substacks, which conflict with those already in the IDE. But check to
make sure:
In the Finder (or Windows Explorer if you're on a PC) look in Rev's main
program folder, in a subfolder called Toolset. See if there are two
copies of revCursors and revMacCursors in there. If so, that's where you
can compare dates and delete the oldest two. If not, then the IDE is
fine. It probably is.
In Rev's application browser, open the problem stack and look at its
substacks. You should see the cursor stacks in there as substacks of
your own stack. Delete them both. Your own stack should not include any
cursor stacks. If you need the cursors in a standalone, just assign them
in Standalone Settings instead.
Save your stack and reopen it. The error should be gone.
