- Could you post an example of that textedit problem?
- try rebuilding your database "; max db.reset"

you have maxtoolbox installed.
it comes from the shell.
nothing important i think. the toolbox is still working fine.

I cannot reproduce that with maxtoolbox, do you have some steps to reproduce? Thanks.

i've re-installed the toolbox. it doesn't occur anymore.
before that i was able to trigger the error by activating/deactivating the toolbox from the ToolBox.maxpat patch (in the extras).

hi guillaume, emanuel,

sorry, was on tour for 3 days and offline.

yes, it semms to have smth to do with maxtoolbox - when it is deactivated (i do it when i'm plaing, to avoid some sudden fgreezes and crashes...) before i quit max,
then by starting max is everything ok.
if i was working on some patch and left toolbox active,
next time i start max the warning appears.
now i can even povoke it by loading (the warning appears again) or unloading (message says: "js: Max ToolBox : Unloaded"
one more funny thing: my actual version of toolbox doesnot sho the checking and unchecking state of load/unload button...

oh, one more tyhing: rebuilding database (; max db.reset written in a message and clicked, right? or am i wrong? if yes, please tell me how to do it.. :) - did not help so far..

thanks and regards,
