Updated mac, now SD is crashing...

I updated my Mac today with the latest system software (at the request of the software updater). Now when I try to do a backup with SD, the SD window just closes immediately doing nothing. No crash report or anything.

Anyone else having trouble?

Are you launching it from Spotlight? You may be running it from the wrong (Backup) drive.

I was running it from spotlight. Don't know if that was the issue. I did a renstall. It asked for system name/password again. Then it just works.

I guess not a major deal. If it happens to someone else, just reinstall.

Even easier, make sure you're running it from the right location... you can add your backup drive into Spotlight's "Privacy" tab to prevent the other copy from being found.
