post_filtered_event_tap_data: Sender is prohibited from synthesizing events #1

The Up-Button does not work for me. I installed it and dragged into the toolbar, however pressing it does not result in any outcome.

In the system logs I can see an error message that is written whenever I press it:

WindowServer[89682]: post_filtered_event_tap_data: Sender is prohibited from synthesizing events

Does your app require any special security settings to create the key events?

Hi grandfatha,

Thank you for your report. But the Up-Button binary does work fine for my latest Mountain Lion. (Sorry, I have't tested it on Mavericks)

So, I can not make sense the error message you got. It should not occur these kind of errors, because this Program is NOT a sandboxed app. The special privilege is that it is applied from developer to Apple in the case of making as a Sandboxed application.

BTW, I would like to recommend XtraFinder (http://www.trankynam.com/xtrafinder/) for the purpose like this.

Thank you.
