What? Another version? How did that happen?

Some of us have more software applications than we know what to do with. We see something of
interest and download it hoping to test it later. Or we download a version of Nisus Writer Pro and
leave it in the

Downloads folder, clicking the Do Not Move button illustrated in Figure 4 on page iv,

or perhaps we moved it onto the

Desktop and have been running it from there. Then we learn of an

update and download that putting it in another folder. Some time, later, we may become so involved
with our writing that we lose track of what we’re doing. We may be struggling with a difficult
thought and need a break, or need to research something on the Web or, in a book. We may need to
eat a meal and then, when we return to our computers we do not notice that Nisus Writer Pro and
its document windows are hidden in the background. When this happens it is possible to forget that
Nisus Writer Pro may be running at all. We seek out the application icon in our

Applications

folder and double-click it.
If this second version of Nisus Writer Pro is version 2.x or later, an alert appears as illustrated in
Figure 8 warning you that you are juggling two versions at once. You may “Continue” but that is
not recommended.

Another version of Nisus Writer is already running…

1. Click Quit.
2. Check in the Dock for the currently running application.
3. Click and hold your mouse or trackpad down on the icon in the Dock, as described in “The

Nisus Writer Pro icon in the Dock” on page 7.

4. Choose Show in Finder.

At this point you will need to determine which version of Nisus Writer Pro is the one you want
to keep. We advise using the most current version. You can always find older versions on the
Nisus Software Inc. Web site:
