Hi, 

I have encountered a few issues in running my experiment using inquisit. I have ran this experiment since the summer using the exact same scripts without any issues. I have not changed my scripts, only created a backup copy of the folder on my MAC, yet when I went to run my experiment after winter break (second semester university) inquisit has been failing. 

Background info: 
- I have seven separate scripts all run together in 1 experiment
- the scripts include questionnaires, presentation of images, video stimuli, and an implicit association task 
- the data has been collected for over 100 participants with no issues up until this point 
- Inquisit is registered for use on a PC (lab version) computer (used by participants) this has NOT changed from last semester
- I switched my PERSONAL computer that I write/revise the scripts on over from a PC computer to a MAC last semester, however no issues arose from this switch prior to now. 
- the issues arose before i updated my inquisit to the most recent version, I uploaded 4.0.4, and the issues are STILL occurring. 

The issues I am encountering are:
- data is not recording 
- individual scripts/data documents are slow to open (have to click multiple times/sometimes won't work) 
- experiment will start, but freezes at random points in the experiment 
- when the script freezes, the computer needs to be restarted 
- the only data that will record is the summary data - no individual script data is recorded regardless of where the freeze occurs 
- lastly - when trying to open each of my scripts I encounter an issue specific to my implicit task script - it says that the default language will not read the script and asks me to choose from a list of very confusing languages? 
- again, I did NOT make any change to the scripts at all, so I am confused as to why this is occurring?

Please help! 
Thanks, 
Marisa
