"I've been struggling for days to fix a bug with the new OSX update (10.4.8) and QuickBooks 2006 v. R4.

"It seems that when an alert sound tries to play, QuickBooks crashes. No error report, no error sound - nothing. QuickBooks just vanishes, along with any unsaved changes. I've turned off sound alerts, ditched prefs, caches, etc. - with no luck.

So far, users have not experienced success remedying the problem with deletion of QuickBooks .plist files and a few other workarounds.
