When you get this "AppleEvent (-10000)" error, please try the following procedure and let us know if it works.

1. Click "OK" (好)　to close the error message
2. Open a new Terminal window (not Xterm but Terminal)

To open a new Terminal window, in a Finder window, go to "Application" -> "Utility" and double click "Terminal".

3. Double click "kh_coder" again

From next time onwards, you will probably be able to start KH Coder by simply double-clicking "kh_coder".

Hello, following your instructions, the operation was successful. However, the "OK" message appeared again during the process. After clicking to close it and rerunning the terminal, I was able to open the file. Should I repeat the aforementioned steps every time the "OK" message appears?

However, the "OK" message appeared again during the process

What do you mean by "during the process"??? And what is the "OK" message??????

First, if you try to start KH Coder by double-clicking "kh_coder", but an "AppleEvent (-10000)" error occurs and KH Coder won't start. In this situation, you need to open a new terminal window and double-click "kh_coder" again.

Second, if you are already using KH Coder and are getting the "AppleEvent (-10000)" error. In this case, just click "OK" to close the error screen.

Third, if you are talking about other message window that has "OK" button, post a screenshot of that window.

Hello, the issue has been resolved. I was talking about the first situation just now. “First, if you try to start KH Coder by double-clicking "kh_coder", an "AppleEvent (-10000)" error occurs and KH Coder won't start. In this situation, you need to open a new terminal window and double-click "kh_coder" again. ” Because I repeated this step several times before I could open KH Coder. Thank you so much for your patient guidance!
