I have read all the threads and can't find a similar problem. Last weekend my hard drive failed. We took it in to the Apple Store and they replaced the hard drive and restored my Mac from my Time Machine backup. (thank goodness I had that!)

Everything seems to work again just great EXCEPT for the Sony reader! It just won't open at all. It also won't quit unless I "force" quit. The little white dot is under it when I click on it and then as I said I have to use the force quit. It never does open. I have uninstalled through Terminal and reinstalled twice now. Still same problem. Just refuses to open.

Any help out there? I am sure Sony support will only tell me to reinstall, which I have done. It had worked without a problem until the hard drive failure.
Imac running Leopard 10.5.8
