Should be able to relicense the IDE.  If it keeps using the wrong one, generate a key for the correct one on the web site and use that to license the product.

Thanks,
Brian

When I delete the revStandaloneSettings, save the stack and re-open it, LC itself simply restores the set to what it was before. If I look closely at the actual properties in the set, I find quite a bit about Windows, Mac and Linux, but nothing at all about mobile platforms. I am wondering now if this is to do with licensing. According to my entry on the LC web site, my copy of 9.5.1 has a licence for six platforms, i.e.

As far as I know I really only have one licence, so that should now count for seven platforms. But maybe my prefs are based on the HTML-only licence - certainly the HTML button works in the Standalone Settings General window.

I thought of trashing the LC Preferences to see if that does anything, but I couldn’t find them: I think they are in the plist, which is in the Preferences in the system library. I tried temporarily switching this off (by renaming the file and starting LC) - it stopped LC fully loading (not surprising really). I restored the plist and LC had forgotten some stuff like recent stacks. I checked that the mobile preference pane still has its green square and can see XCode, but the Standalone Settings still does not respond to mouse clicks to remove the non-mobile platforms or to choose mobile.
