5. Troubleshooting

Before you contact our technical support regarding problems or difficulties using 24U VirtualUser Plug-In, please check if your issue is not listed below:

Mac version of VirtualUser doesn't record actions outside of FileMaker
Make sure the option "Enable access for assistive devices" is checked in Universal Access of System Preferences.

Plug-in doesn't replay international characters correctly
This might happen if the keyboard layout has been changed. Make sure the keyboard layout is the same as it was when the recording was in progress.

Known limitation
Current version of the plug-in is not intended to be used on Parallels Desktop for Macintosh, as mouse movements are not replayed correctly.

Known issue we are working on to fix
If anyway you are going to use VirtualUser on Parallels Desktop for Macintosh, then you should know, that some of the international characters are not recorded correctly. This feature will be accomplished in the next version of plug-in.

I get a "Powered by 24U Software" splash displayed when quitting FileMaker Pro
Developer licenses and some special promotional licenses cause a splash dialog to appear on the screen for 2 seconds at the quit time of your solution. The splash helps you to comply with our License Agreement without having to design your own about screen. If you don't want your solution to show the splash dialog, send us samples of your about screen and license agreement to registration@24uSoftware.com.
