TOPIC

    I just installed Now Utilities 6.0. When I restarted, I got an error message from Now Startup Manager stating that the Display Enabler crashed my system. Why is this happening?


DISCUSSION

    The Now Utilities 6.x Toolbox extension is not compatible with Display Enabler 2.0.2. The table below gives you a list of options available depending on what display and version of the Mac OS you have.
