error -39 on app start

[BNig]

Hi Tiemo,

the apple errors are here
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1618

error -39 is eoferr = End of file; no additional data in the format

I suspect that the physical and logical end of file are inconsistent, but
that is a guess.

So maybe there is a corrupt file?

whatever that means.
regards
Bernd
